Greyhawk still a good choice for new 1080p LCD?

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
I still have my Stuart Greyhawk screen that I got with my first projector (a DLP) back in 2001. I have a Panasonic AE4000U on its way. I don't particularly want to change the screen, as I have always loved it, I paid plenty for it (motorized, tensioned), and I don't have room for a bigger one. But not having kept up with advances in screen technology in recent years, I'm wondering if this is still a good match for my new projector. Any recommendations? Would I be shooting myself in the footage by keeping this screen?

By the way, it's a way smaller screen than most that are talked about around here, and mainly for night use, so brightness will not be issue for me at all... in fact I may need a ND filter to tame the new pj. I'm thinking my current .9 gain screen will work well, but would love to hear other opinions.

Thanks,
Paul

If you're happy with it, why change it? It will only look better with your new PJ.

Thank you for your suggestions! Looks like that's one less thing to upgrade

if you were to buy a new screen, I wouldnt go with the Grayhawk. However since you have a smaller size screen and the AE-4000 is pretty bright, staying with what you got isnt going to hurt you. However, if it was me, I would upgrade at some point

Can you elaborate? Why would you upgrade?

Thanks,
