What are peoples thoughts on the infocus LP425z projector.

I've found it for 1299. I thought it might be ok for my first projector with my progressive scan dvd player in a small room, with very little light.

At less than half the price of the LP340, it could fill the bill for someone looking to get in on the cheap.

The 425z is OK but I really don't think it is a good investment today at this price. The machine has been discontinued by Infocus, and prices have been falling on new machines.


Prices have also fallen on the 340 and 350. I have seen some 340's for around $2K. Be careful not to get a 340B because of the inferior video processing!


And there is always the NEC LT150, which can be had for around $2500 (apart from the Dell deal which was a mistake).


I suggest passing on the 425z.
