Our review on the Optoma HD200X Projector

Having taken a look at the HD200X in our demo room we have to say for the price Optoma have done a fantastic job. Images are sharp, crisp and detailed but then we were not expecting less as our source was a blu ray DVD player playing the blu ray version of The Dark Knight.(click on the above image of the HD200X to view the results)

A wealth of image adjustments, again at this price point is beyond what we were expecting to see on the onboard menu system. Standard preset colours for us were a little saturated but easily rectified with the image settings section.

Out of the box the most obvious thing about the Optoma HD200X is that it's chassis is much much smaller than any current 1080p projector available making it ideal for taking round to a friends house or if you intend on ceiling mounting it but dont want an unsightly "large box" on the ceiling. If you are intending to ceiling mount the HD200X the bolt size required to attach the mount to projector is M3 with a min length of 7.5mm and max length of 10mm

Zoom range is limited on the HD200X but this is the norm for optoma projectors however if it fits your throw distance / required image size you wont be dissappointed with the image quality the HD200X can produce

You may have noticed the Optoma HD200X has a significantly lower Contrast Ratio than its competitors. This is because Optoma have decided to use the "ANSI Contrast" measurement instead of the traditional "full on/full off" measurement.

Having looked into this and spoken to Optoma here's their reasoning...

"The Optoma HD200X has a 350:1 ANSI Contrast - real world contrast performance. Many believe that “Full On, Full Off” contrast measurements may not depict “real world” performance and may not offer the relevant information needed to determine how a projector will look when you are watching movies in your home. If you want to compare projector contrast specifications look for the ANSI contrast specification."
