Image Quality of Projections   Message List

Hi,
I've been using my diy crt projector for about 6 months now.

I'm using a 42cm fresnel lens,first image mirror and have a silver
pvc screen painted white.

I find that watching some movies the quality of image is perfect and
it's just as good as in the movie theatre (eg Matrix
trilogy,Underworld,Terminator 1-3)whilst other movies and tv shows
the quality is pretty good and enjoyable to watch.

Music clips also look excellent.

Dark scenes in films that are lit with artificial light show up
better than daytime scenes shot in natural sunlight.

I wonder if crt tv's reduce their light emission with daytime scenes
or if it's something to do with the exposure at the filming source.

Has anyone else noticed this with their projectors?
