Product review summary
This page is intentionally secondary to the manual page and exists to provide review-oriented context.
The ViewSonic PJD5134 is a 3D-ready projector that has received high praise for its consistent and fast mode-switching capabilities. Users have reported using Apple TV and PS3 to watch live TV, movies, and play games, with the active 3D glasses working instantly and effectively. The projector offers various 3D modes, including side-by-side, top-above-bottom, frame-sequential, and frame-packed, which can be easily toggled through using the programmable "My Button" on the remote. The projector is also bright, with 3,000 lumens and handles low light well, making it great for indoor/outdoor use. The picture quality is fantastic, despite the SVGA resolution of 800x600, with a 15,000:1 contrast ratio and 1.1x optical zoom lens. However, the throw distance can be tricky, and the adjustment screw under the front of the projector is almost useless. The sound quality is also poor, and it's recommended to use external speakers.
Pros:
- 3D-ready capabilities
- Fast mode-switching
- Bright with 3,000 lumens
- Great picture quality
- Various 3D modes
Cons:
- Throw distance can be tricky
- Adjustment screw under the front is not useful
- Poor sound quality
As an AI product expert, I would recommend the ViewSonic PJD5134 for those looking for an affordable 3D-ready projector with good picture quality and fast mode-switching capabilities. However, potential buyers should keep in mind the limitations of the throw distance and audio quality.
