This projector is full HD with a 1920 x 1080 resolution. Finally, if you have a blue-ray player, the HC3800 will blow you away. Simply put: there were so many good projector reviews and feedback on this, I felt hard-pressed not to buy it. While it might be a couple of hundred dollars more expensive than similar projectors it is well worth the extra bucks.

Ideally the HC3800 DLP projector is suited best for a darkened home theater-like room, but it can be used just as effectively in a living room for the upcoming football season. If you're worried about size, don't be. The maximum screen size I've used with this projector is up to 150", however, you need to be incredibly careful about the light control. Without it, the screen can become a bit hazy.

My one concern when I received the Mitsubishi HC3800 1080p Home Theater DLP Projector is that there are no preset modes. What this basically boils down to is that you have several various gamma and colour temperature settings that you can play around with. These settings can be mixed and matched to get the perfect brightness and colour balance you'll need for your screen. Initially, while it seems confusing, this is a very good option. Once you've become used to this, you'll find it much better than the preset options.

The lumen output, while not the best in its range is 1300 (Which is still pretty good for a home theater projector). However, if you want to limit the lumen output, the projector has a low lamp mode. This reduces the light output by up to 15%. So little? You couldn't be more wrong. This Low Lamp mode can help your bulb last from the average 2000 hours to up to 5000 hours.

If you're quick about your decision to buy the Mitsubishi HC3800 1080p Home Theater DLP Projector, then you should know that currently there are stores that are providing an extra bulb as well when you buy the initial DLP projector. 10000 hours worth of viewing time? You won't need to fork out any money for a bulb anytime soon.
