Reviews:
"The image on the HD70 is very good with great colour strait out of the box. The contrast was quite high and the unit performed very well with both DVD movies and an xbox 360. It has a 1000 lumen brightness level which is still good for a room that has some ambient light but for best results we'd strongly recommend using it in conjunction with a darkened room.

If your after a great high definition home theatre projector, that isn't going to cost you the earth, this is it!"

"OK, let’s review: low price, 720p DLP, quiet fan and 1000 ANSI lumens… Buy, rinse, repeat. This isn’t a decision so much as a point at which you have to ask yourself how happy you’ll be with your current 32” CRT display and how much time it will take you to rustle up the funds to fit this projector and a screen into your budget. If you’re looking to get “into” a front projection system but haven’t been able to justify the costs – you no longer have an excuse. Be sure to pair it with a good progressive scan DVD player for movies. Highly recommended."
 

The HD70 features Texas Instruments’ latest 720P High Definition DLP chipset, a 7-segment color wheel 10-bit per channel color processing, great connectivity and is defined with a fabulous sleek elegant design. The purposely designed new 7-segment color wheel with BrilliantColor and TrueVivid color enhancement technologies simultaneously enables higher brightness and astonishing deep saturated color. 1000 ANSI lumens brightness and a staggering 4000:1 contrast ratio make it ideal for a wide range of home theater applications.

10-bit image processing
Optoma's TI DPP3020 High performance image scalar allows the HD70 to produce one of the highest levels of the best colour reproduction possible. This 10 Bit Image processing allows the allows the HD70 to display 1,070,000,000 colour's which means more shades more detail and a true colour image.

7 segment Colour Wheel
As with all DLP projectors the HD70 relies on a colour wheel to produce the colour's in the image. Unlike many DLP models the HD 70 features an amazing 7 segment colour wheel with a 4x speed. This allows for a smoother image, better colour reproduction, and, with the faster rotation and more segments, eliminates rainbow effects that plagued some early DLP models.

Handy Backlit remote
As most home theatre is done in a darkened room, Optoma has included a handy backlit remote so you can control the projector even with the lights off.

Excellent Connectivity
The HD70 allows you to connect to almost anything, or several devices at once. It has the new HDMI connection, Component, Composite, S-video, and a 15 pin D-sub that can be used for connection to a PC or via an adaptor to SCART or a secondary component.

Industry Leading Warranty
Many projectors come with a 2 year warranty, some even with a 1 year warranty, and some only warrant their lamp for the first few months. Optoma has gone that one step further with an industry leading 3 year warranty on the projector plus a lamp warranty 4 times longer than most other projectors (1 year/1000 on lamp).


OUR SAY
Optoma has made yet another strong performer with the HD70. This little powerhouse offers a high definition resolution of 1280 x 720 together with a massive 4000:1 contrast. The High definition resolution will give you great detail while the high contrast ratio provides good reproduction of dark shades and strong blacks.

The HD70 also features an amazing 7 segment colour wheel running at 4X speed ,ensuring awesome colour reproduction and eliminating the chance of seeing the rainbow effect visible in older model DLP projectors.

With all the inputs you'll ever need, such as the 15pin D-Sub, Composite RCA, S-video, the new HDMI, and Component,

the DV10 is very easy to connect to your dvd player or other theatre products. Additionally Optoma has included a 12v relay so you can connect certain motorised screens to the projector that can automatically lower or raise when the projector is turned on/off.
