Build quality
As ever build quality from Epson has never failed to impress us - the TW3200 is no exception. A matte white casing and menu buttons, grey menu source select and power buttons with a nice ice blue glow on the power button when the unit is on.
The remote control is backlit in orange and well thought out when it comes to the button layout. Power and Direct source selection can be found in the top third of the remote. Main menu access is in the middle whilst image adjustments and image presets are in the bottom third of the remote. Whether making adjustments via the remote control or directly on the projector - the buttons are quick to respond with good feedback when pressing them - no having to press the button 2 or 3 times to get a response!
Brightness and image quality
At 1800 lumens, the EH-TW3200 is in the upper level brightness category for home cinema projectors - a good choice if you have ambient light in your room that you cannot control or if you want low level lighting on or you want to watch that early evening Premier league football match with mates and dont want to have to close the curtains.- We would suggest using the 'dynamic' image preset for any of these scenarios.
We used a number of blu ray DVD's on the TW3200 including Cars (to check out colour accuracy, vibrancy and detailing) and Casino Royale (for flesh tones and black levels / grey scales). With the projector set to 'Dynamic' image preset In our demo room we switched on our 2 spotlights ( standard GU10 50Watt) which are place directly over the screen flooding the screen with light - The image quality did drop off (which is expected) but was extremley watchable with whites still looking crisp and bright. Switching off the lights the 'Dynamic' preset was painfully bright for us and we had to change the preset to 'Natural' and drop the brightness to -3 (this also enhances black level)

Lens Shift & Zoom range
The TW3200 is equipped to lens-shift vertically equivalent to 3 screens (+/- 96%), and horizontally equivalent to +/- 47%.
The EH-TW3200 has a powerful 2.1 wide zoom ratio and short focus lens, which increases the range of set up possibilities, by allowing for movement both forward and back in relation to the screen. With the short focus lens, the projector can project a massive 100–inch screen from as close as three metres.
Conclusion
For us the Epson EH-TW3200 is one of the top contender in this price range - Huge zoom range and lens shift, high brightness, good black levels and a wealth of colour adjustments to achieve vibrant colours and natural skin tones.
The competing models in and around this price point are all DLP based and do not require maintenance other than lamp replacement. The Epson being LCD has a filter that needs routine cleaning to get the maximum life out of the lamp, but as long as you have a can of compressed air to hand and 5 minutes to spare then your good to go as it is that quick to clean the filter.
There are cheaper 1080p projectors available but this is one of those occasions where we would strongly reccomend spending the extra £100-£150 pounds - its money well spent and the end result will be without question superior image quality!
Please note as with the vast majority of home cinema projectors - the chassis is fairly large in comparison to business projectors. The Epson EH-TW3200 dimensions are 136 x 450 x 360 mm (H x W x D)
If you like the look of the TW3200 but need a model with slightly more brightness and contrast, but dont require the lens shift function then check out the Epson EH-TW6100.
