I thought the purpose of the fresnel between the light and the lcd was to distribute the light more evenly and straight ahead instead of at an angle?
And the dark edges has to do with not enough point source light hitting the lcd? Do you have a reflector? Maybe try playing with the distance of the light from the first fresnel so more sourcepoint light hits it?
I just confused myself again :lol:
So how much in pounds has it cost to build these projecters
Splitting it doesnt improve the quality, its the quality is actually bettter when they are together, but when they are split apart u can do keystoningQuote:

Unsplit fresnels produce a better image, as there's no distortion effect between the LCD and hte projection lens.
Split fresnels allow you to use the field lens to do keystone adjustment.

well i got my lcd last week...but it turned out to be completely opposite of what the seller wrote on ebay...it was a whopping 30MS and 400:1 contrast ratio and it wasnt in anyway widescreen :lol:

from ebay...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...DME:B:AAQ:US:1 (i told the guy i didnt want to wait for the bidding to end so i made him a offer and he accepted :) )

500:1 Contrast ratio
16ms

how long do u think its going to take to get from Washington(state) to Toronto...
pretty far..
It all depends on the weather. If the roads get boggy, the mules will have problems making any sort of speed. A month could really be a conservitive estimate. Especially if it is snowing in the hills.....Quote:

i bought a ballast from ebay...on sunday...and after doing some research it might be a ICE CAP which costs $305CAD and i paid $120USD shipped.
the reason i didnt buy from LL is because alot of ppl seem to be having problems with LL e-ballasts.
