Projectors and Screens

For years a suspended mirror was considered to be the height of technology in the organ world, then came projectors. The benefits were enormous. However, until recently prices did not justify the advantages. When we decided a projector was needed for our festivals, we embarked on a great deal of research checking both the cost and quality of screens and projectors. It led to a product we are very pleased with and we believe would be of benefit to many of our customers. Thus our prime recommended "Sanyo" projector complete with special screen deal retails at £1299.00 (excluding carriage) and will save you hours and hours going through the maze of other products out there. The following is just a few of the questions you might like to think about if you are about to buy for your society or club. This can be an expensive mistake if you don't get the right gear. We also sell Plasma screens. If you would like a quote for any brand or model please phone.

Projectors

Screens
1) What brand of projector do I need? 1) What Size do I need?
2) How bright should it be? 2) How high does it extend?
3) How many hours will it run for before the bulb will need to be changed? 3) What distance does the screen need to be from the projector?
4) How noisy is the fan? 4) How heavy is it?
5) What connections do I need? 5) How well protected is it in transit?
6) Is the projector VGA, SVGA, XGA and what do they all mean? 6) Is it coated? (its not as easy as pointing at a white painted wall)
7) Will it be able to cope when used with stage lighting?
8) Does it have a power saving mode?
9) Is the system fast enough i.e. do you hear the organ and the see the musicians fingers move afterwards?

By now you should be getting an idea of just how complicated the subject can get. We typed in Projectors into Google and got "Results 1 - 10 of about 899,000 for projectors" Your possibly also thinking that's all well and good but I've seen cheaper. Be warned! You get what you pay for! To make the whole subject simpler we usually offer just two packages for slightly different situations, but both of which are tried and tested. One for a stage with little or no stage lighting and a second which we use ourselves at the Cumberland Hotel during our festivals (screen pictured left featuring Harry Hussey). All you need to do is set up a camcorder on a tripod and plug it into either of our packages and you will have a feature guaranteed to have your club talking and more importantly an attraction that will improve your concerts and likely to bring more members to your club. Incidentally a whole host of other uses come to mind i.e. we connect a DVD player at our shows and with a DVD written on our computer show pictures of prior festivals in the breaks. Laptops can also be connected used for demonstrations, teaching etc.
