Epson EH-TW8100 Reviews:
Performance Features Ease Of Use Value	"The Epson Home Cinema EH-TW8100 is the newest addition to the Epson home theater line, and it continues their tradition of fully-featured, high-value home theater projectors. Its bright picture combines deep contrast and vibrant color to create a picture that pops off of the screen, while its 3D performance has received a significant boost thanks to new RF-sync glasses. Great color, high contrast, and excellent placement flexibility make the Epson EH-TW8100 series easy to like. " "Despite the stiff competition from other projectors this year, the EH-TW8100 is a strong value in the home theater market and an excellent choice for home theater in just about any situation."
	"The 3D system on the projector has also received an update with improved software making for a better 3D picture. In some cases on the previous model there was 'slight' interference or digital artifacts but with the TW8100 this has been eliminated. Epson have also included 2D to 3D conversion allowing for normal 2D movies to be viewed in 3D. Though this won't be as good as a movie of program recorded in natively in 3D it actually works quite well. The TW8100 has a great set of features and fantastic image quality. Definitely a 5 star rating."
	"OK, color looks great, but that's just the beginning. There's still no projector near the price that can best this Epson in terms of black level performance, even if the Sony can be considered it's equal. Shadow detail was equally excellent. The combination of the two are unmatched so far, with only a JVC to review under $5000 that might compete. If you want better blacks, you'll probably have to start with Sony's much more expensive VW95ES - yes, over twice the price, and a higher cost of operation. " "Epson EH-TW8100 3D, Overall:  I'm starting here, because considering 3D considers all the individual topics such as brightness, color... 3D is better, much better than last year. Dramatically better.  I viewed the EH-TW8000 vs. the EH-TW8100, and no contest! EH-TW8100 3D brightness is improved, noticeably.  That's not so much the projector's native brightness but improvements in 3D handling and new glasses.  "
