Mitsubishi HC7000 Projector Review
The Mitsubishi HC7000 is one of the many high quality home theater projectors that Mitsubishi has to offer. It comes with 1000 ANSI lumens, full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution, and a 720000:1 contrast ratio, which is one of the highest ratios seen in a home theater projector. Recently the writers at CNet released their review of the projector. The first thing the writer mentioned was how amazing the projector’s display was. The dynamic contrast ratio and Reon-VX video processor put the HC7000 at the top of the list for high end projectors. Another positive feature the writers found was that the projector comes with an extended 5000-hour lamp, which is twice as long as a standard bulb. One of the major disappointments the writers noticed was the screen adjustment features, or lack there of. In order to get the HC7000 to be entirely on the screen, the projector needs to be placed in a specific location, and have little room for mistakes. The writers also mentioned that they felt the 1000 ANSI lumens were rather low in comparison to its leading competition. In all, the writers concluded by stating, “The AU$5499 is a sleek beauty with a refreshing new design and smooth curves. Price-wise, this Mitsubishi costs AU$1,000 less than the Panasonic PT-AE3000, plus you do get a higher dynamic contrast which is crucial for better picture quality. That’s taking the rather large assumption that the dynamic contrast measurements are consistent between both manufacturers. However, this is highly unlikely since there’s currently no industry-wide standardization.”
