Reviews of the Panasonic PT-AE900U
-
CNET Review
The Good: Relatively inexpensive; solid video processing with 2:3 pull-down; excellent features for setup, including long zoom and horizontal and vertical lens shift; very bright and capable of driving large screen sizes; numerous picture-tweaking options.
The Bad: Black-level performance and contrast ratio not up to DLP standards; somewhat soft HD images.
The Bottom Line: While not quite as impressive as more expensive DLPs, the budget Panasonic PT-AE900U LCD is the champion of its price bracket so far.
