Horizontal Shift info for Fall/Winter 2008 1080p models

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
I'm looking at getting a new projector soon to upgrade from my Z3, which I'll be giving to my parents, as their old 55" Mitsubishi RPTV broke recently.

Horizontal Shift is important to me, and it can be tough getting accurate info for some of the yet to be released products. I thought it'd be helpful to have as much information as possible in one place.

Here's some of the new 1080p projectors with horizontal shift coming out in the next few months that I'm aware of, along with the horizontal shift stats for each.

Sanyo:
PLV-Z700: 50% (manual)

Epson:
EH-TW3000/EH-TW3800/6100/7100: 47%
EH-TW4000/EH-TW5000/6500/7500: 47%

Panasonic:
AE3000: 40%

JVC:
HD 350: 34%
HD 750: 34%

Sony:
VPL-HW10: 25% (manual)
VPL-VW70: ?

Mitsubishi:
HC6500: 5%
HC7000: 5%

If anyone knows of any 1080p projectors being released soon, please let me know the details, and I'll update this post to include the information.

(Also, since this includes + and sub $3000 projectors, I wasn't sure which sub-forum to put it in. Mods, please feel free to move if it fits better elsewhere.)

Still looking for some horizontal shift numbers for the new Epson projectors. Are they showing these at CEDIA? I still can't find numbers on them yet.

Also looking for the horizontal shift information for the newly announced Sony VPL-VW70.

Any others missing from that list?

Thanks very much for that. I hope the 3000/3800 have the same range.

Now I need to try to figure out which, if any, of the Epsons will have something similar to Panasonics SFR:

Selectable Frame Response:
This function reduces the time from when the video signal is first input until it is projected (referred to as frame delay) to approximately 1/3 that of our previous projectors. The projector can be switched from Normal mode to High-Speed mode. High-Speed mode is recommended for video game use.

I've confirmed the Epson numbers, but I'm still looking for confirmation on the Sony VPL-VW70 and Mitsubishi HC7000.

If anything's missing or if anyone knows the lens shift information for either of those, please let me know.
