The old slideshow was a venerable tradition at my house while I was
growing up, and I suspect it was part of many PCPhoto readers’ youth as
well. While the slide projector is rapidly disappearing, taking its
place is the digital projector, with bundled computer and slideshow
software. Digital slideshows can be done faster, far easier and with
more production value, meaning better looking and with superior sound
and effects. The Epson PowerLite 737c seemed like a good choice to try out the idea of living with a projector. It sells for about $1,599, and offers 2,000 lumens, which is excellent brightness for small- to moderate-sized rooms like those in a home or small business. The projector’s resolution is XGA, or 1024 x 768, definitely a good resolution for photography. I used the PowerLite 737c for a variety of shows that I projected to nearly five feet wide onto a quality projection screen. In addition, the projector uses three LCDs for its images, which offers potentially much higher color and tonal qualities than other projectors in its class. I was very impressed with the images, and my audiences’ response was consistently “Wow!”  |
