Anyone know where I might find a list of front projection screens endorsed by the ISF? All I know of now are the 2 cinema vision screens from Da-Lite.

To my knowledge, the Da-Lite Cinema Vision 1.3 gain white screen and the Stewart Studiotek 130 white screen are the two ISF "blessed" screens.

Keep in mind, these recommendations were made more with CRT projectors in mind. The goal was to provide a screen material with the gain that CRT projectors need while avoiding hot-spotting, expanding the viewing angle, and maintaining color uniformity.


Digital projectors are much brighter than CRT's and black levels may suffer with the use of a white screen with gain. Many digital users are willing to sacrifice some color shifting and/or viewing angle to obtain better blacks thru the use of newer hybrid screens (high gain coatings over a gray base material). I dont believe any of these gray screens carry the ISF recommendation as "reference quality" screens.
