TOSHIBA TDP-XP2U DLP Mobile Projector Review

This projector was needed to project video/slide show images on a stage screen in theater production. It had to front- or rear-project and be easy to use, because kids run tech on most of our shows. It had to be flexible and portable and projected cleanly in a variety of different environments. In the 1st show it rear-mounted 10' from a hi-threadcount flat king-sized bed sheet screen and created a 6'x7' image that could be seen clearly 100' away and 70 degree viewing angle. It allows you to choose the projection mode (rear, front, top-mount, normal-mount).

Problems:
Spare/replacement bulbs cost nearly half the whole projector!
Remote (very small) only works from the FRONT of projector and then only a few feet away - nearly impossible/impractical on rear-projection.
I had difficulty fine tuning the resolution for a close-up view, which made it hard to read the setup screen from close-up, though it was quite clear from 20' away, and the setup screen was very hard to read in rear-projection or top-mount modes.
Overall, it was a good, solid projector for the price and worth it for most normal projection needs.
