The projector looks its best in a fully darkened room, but a touch of ambient light will not hurt things much. Black level is not as deep as other 1080p projectors that use auto-iris systems, and indeed full on/off contrast is not one of the HC4000's selling points. The darker you can get your room, the better, but don't run yourself ragged trying to plug up every light leak. This year's model is the HC4000, and it definitely continues the legacy of its predecessor. The HC3800 and HC4000 are mostly the same, but the one clear area of improvement is contrast.
So the HC6000's price is in the middle of the pack of 1080p models that are priced within reach of most consumers. Cleared payment cleared payment - opens in a new window or tab.

With a new DarkChip 3 DLP chip, single-frame contrast is even better than before--and that's saying a lot, because the HC3800 was already excellent in this regard. And as of today, the official street price has been reduced to $1,299, making it more affordable than ever. Even better, the price now includes a full two-year Advance/Exchange replacement warranty, and a one-year warranty on the lamp. Of course it’s been quite a while since I reviewed the HD1000U, when new (10/06), but the competition the HD1000U faced back then is essentially the same as the HC1500 faces today.
The HC4000 has an estimated lamp life of 3,000 hours in high lamp mode and 5,000 hours in eco-mode, which is above average for this class of projector. What's more, replacement lamps cost only $299, meaning it costs between six and ten cents per hour to operate the projector. Sometimes it is hard to differentiate between the inherent sharpness of a projector and the appearance of sharpness produced by high contrast; all else being equal, a higher-contrast projector will appear sharper. So we switched the HC4000 into the Sports/High Brightness mode mentioned previously, its lowest-contrast mode, in order to make sure we weren't mistaking one for the other. Fine detail is never muddy or blurred, even during fast motion. What's more, the HC4000 has very little digital noise, which aids in the perception of detail.
Mitsubishi 4300 LUMENS Projector Great For Home Theater Cinema
First of all, there are very few under $1000, 720p resolution projectors. Of those, the Optoma HD70 is still out there, as is an Hitachi projector (we haven’t reviewed yet). For more money, biggest names – Panasonic’s PT-AX100U, and Sanyo PLV-Z5, also were shipping when we reviewed the HD1000U. Your old X-1 needed a good anti-aliasing chip because of the low resolution of the x1 .
The HC7900 DW is the middle of the Mitsubishi home theater projector lineup. On a personal note, I must admit I am much more enthused about this projector than I thought I would be. In a very interesting way, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

To display video, two HDMI devices must first perform a 'handshake' to identify themselves to one another before sending data. The HC4000 takes a long time to lock, initially, compared to other projectors. While this has no effect on the actual watching of the movie, it can get annoying when the projected image flashes between black and blue several times before finally locking to the signal from your DVD or Blu-ray player.
Modern dlp chips have improved and are able to reflect more light. I believe this allows the same light to be focused more concentrated. Our Editor's Choice award goes to products that dramatically exceed expectations for performance, value, or cutting-edge design. TheMitsubishi HC7900DWis relatively small for a home theater projector.
Mitsubishi HC 3000 Projector Untested
This HC4000 projector as you probably know runs at 1920x1080p and can display most videos in their native resolution. The anti-aliasing is used to display high resolution on a low resolution screen so it is not needed much anymore. Other than the HC7900DW projector’s shift from black case to white, the hardware is basically the same. Same lens, same inputs…Beyond that, however, there are a number of improvements, as one would expect. (If not, they could have just called it the HC7800DW instead of the HC7900DW.) Contrast is upped to 150,000 from 100,000, as an example. In the Mitsubishi projector line-up, the HC7900DW is straddled by their new LCoS based HC8000D projector on the high end of performance, and the rather vintage (now under $1500) HC4000 on the low.
Combining Sports with the Medium color temperature preset gives better contrast and color accuracy, and drops brightness to 705 lumens. This is not to say that the 8700 UB does not have advantages--it most certainly does. It has a higher maximum lumen output , a modestly brighter cinema mode , and an auto-iris system that really does make dark scenes look incredible. With the 2.1x zoom and lens shift it is easier to install on those rear shelves and bookcases.
So an improvement in apparent sharpness on the HC6000 is noteworthy indeed. The HC7900DW comes with a remote control, which I think is rather dated, but it will be discussed in the Remote section of the Tour page . When it comes to audible noise, DLPs tend to be a bit noisy.
Hi, it would be a right choice to update my Infocus SP7205 to this Mitsubishi HC4000?? I use it for watching bluray movies in a light controlled room. I'm looking for a low price 1080p projector and the Mitsubishi hc4000 it seems to be a right choice.
Fan noise is slightly quieter, though neither is objectionable. The HC4000 is an impressive projector, and in terms of sheer picture quality it punches above its price class. Even fresh out of the box, with no adjustments made, the HC4000 produces a bright, clear, three-dimensional image that practically jumps off the screen.
