Epson MG-850HD Reviews:
Performance Features Ease Of Use Value	"The MG-850HD has automatic vertical keystone, so it will square the image for you, for horizontal offset, the projector also has horizontal keystone, activated via a slider on the top of the case. This system makes it easier to set up the projector on the fly, which is especially handy if you take advantage of the MG-850HD's portability and bring it with you. If you have it set up on a table at home, then the quick-adjust keystone correction is less vital. The first thing you'll notice when you fire up the MG-850HD is that it's very bright. Living rooms and other similar environments often have some ambient light, even with the curtains closed or the blinds drawn. To combat this, the MG-850HD cranks out almost 2400 lumens in its brightest mode, allowing you to put up a 100" diagonal picture even when there's some light in the room. Of course, this isn't universally true; the more ambient light you have, the smaller you'll have to make your image. The MG-850HD has a 1.2:1 zoom lens, so you can adjust the picture size somewhat without being forced to move the projector. Image quality is top notch for a projector in this price range. The MG-850HD's bright picture has strong, saturated color, and the Cinema preset isn't too far off from the 6500K standard for color temperature. The projector's 1280x800 native resolution means that there are some slight black bars at top and bottom when viewing 16:9 content, but these bars all but disappear when there is significant ambient light in the room. Contrast is respectable, though black level is only about average. Video and game content from PC sources is sharp and clear, doubly so since computer output can be tailored to match the projector's native 1280x800 pixel matrix. Most importantly, 1080p from our Blu-ray player maintained most, if not all, of the clarity and detail of the original HD source despite the MG-850HD's 720p resolution. "
