I am thinking of getting the NEC LT150 and although I have read previous posts on the subject, I'm still a little confused.
I plan to use it with a Panasonic RP91 with a VGA breakout cable and will have it mounted (fixed ceiling)10-11 feet away from the screen.
I watch a mix of both 4:3 and widescreen DVDs and I'm a bit confused as to which screen format I should get. I understand that if I use a 4:3 screen, the PJ will project 4:3 using the full screen and if I use widescreen material, the PJ will letterbox (just like a regular TV). What I don't understand is what my options are if I use a 16:9 screen. Can I get the PJ to project an undistorted 4:3 image properly on the screen? Will the 16:9 image be letterboxed?
The only locally available fixed-mount screens are all 4:3 so if a widescreen makes more sense, I'll probably just use paint.
