Epson PowerLite Home Cinema 750HD Measurements

The bright and the dark of it
- By Geoffrey Morrison
- Posted April 30, 2013
Like other Epson projectors I’ve reviewed recently, the 750HD performs differently in the Dynamic and Cinema modes. If you’ve already read my review, you’ll know it also has some quirks to go along with its ridiculously intense light output.
It’s worth noting, we like things that are ridiculous.

Review: Epson PowerLite Home Cinema 750HD

Do one thing and do it well

Let’s cut right to it: this projector is staggeringly, amazingly, blindingly bright. It’s brighter than any projector I can remember measuring. It’s brighter than any plasma. It’s brighter than most LCD TVs I’ve reviewed. Uncalibrated, on a 102-inch, 1.0-gain screen, I got 87 footlamberts. That means, with a slightly smaller screen, or a screen with even a little gain, you could have an over 100-footlambert image from a projector.
Oh, and it’s $800...

Winter is my favorite season, when all the past year’s new flat-panel TVs have been reviewed and I can switch my attention to projectors. This season was particularly bountiful, as I was able to score three of the best projectors on the market for review. Sony’s VPL-HW50ES, plus an Epson and a JVC, all arrived on my doorstep within a few days of one another. Not too shabby, that. Time for a roundup.

There’s a coffee cup on the remote, an icon unmistakably a cup and saucer. Maybe it’s tea. It’s the largest button. It’s backlit. It might be taunting me.
So begins my time with the Epson MegaPlex MG-850HD Projector, a plucky little PJ that makes me question the logic of every flat panel in existence.

This is my second time writing this review. I don’t mean that I tweaked and changed it a lot and that this is a second draft. I mean I had to completely rewrite it. No computer error: I simply found something so bizarre, so transformative about Epson’s Home Cinema 5010 projector that it radically changed my opinion of it. So much so that I had to start over completely.
And I almost missed it.

With prices falling faster than confidence in Greece’s economy, is there a better big-screen deal these days than a front projector? Back in 2008 even bargain-basement-priced 1080p models cost about $3,000 — about half what they cost just a year earlier, but still a sizable chunk of change.

Perhaps it was because I wasn’t paying attention, but I didn’t expect a lot of big projector news to come out of this show. Yeah, I was wrong.

A few large manufacturers excepted, most of the video projection industry seems in no big rush to get into 3D. As a result, there was plenty of 2D projection action at this year’s CEDIA Expo, a gathering in Atlanta this week of custom installers and the manufacturers who supply them.
