Aberdeen Projector Hire specialise in LCD professional video projector hire for use in a wide range of presentational applications. Our video / data projectors will accept a wide range of input sources and are easy to use. A modern electronic projector such as the workhorse Mitsubishi SL4SU will accept composite video, S-Video, or a 15pin d-sub (a standard computer vga type cable) input connectors and can cope with PAL, SECAM or NTSC video, or VGA, SVGA, XGA or SXGA computer inputs which means that they will work with just about any input source that you can throw at them. With an ANSI Lumens (light output / brightness) of 1700, we have found that this projector produces a brighter image than higher rated projectors from less well known manufacturers. The native resolution of this unit is SVGA which is comparabale to a fairly standard PC monitor setting at 800 x 600 pixels. In effect, this projector is suitable for use in boardroom size, lights-on presentations of up to about 30 people. Weighing in at just 2.7 kg, with dimensions of 274mm x 69mm x 260mm it packs a lot of power into a very compact and mobile case. As with most projectors, ideal placement is about twice as far back from the screen as the the image is wide (ie. 12' back for a 6' wide image), with the bottom of the projector & screen in line. The image can be adjusted by means of a 1.2:1 zoom lens, and there is a digital keystone facility to adjust for non-vertical alignment. It is worth noting that this projector, like most, is not well equipped in the speaker department, with a mono 2 watt on board speaker (comparable to a laptop speaker) which we would generally not recommend using - For most applications a set of powered PC speakers are the most cost effective option, but separate sound systems can be used if the situation demands it. Practical applications for projectors such as these are for use with laptop / notebook computers (PC or Mac) running any program such as Microsoft Powerpoint, Macromedia Flash, Macromedia Director, etc. They are regularly used with a DVD player, often running an autoplay, looping DVD, or film. They can similarly be connected to VHS or SVHS video cassette players, X-Box or Sony PS2 games consoles.

These specifications are faily typical or our professional SVGA projector hire stock. For large presentation situations we would recommend a step up to the next level of projectors which have a very similar feature & application set, although they have a higher ANSI lumens lights output (2600 would be typical), a higher native resolution (XGA which is 1024 x 768 pixels) and are a little more bulky. They weigh 4.1kg and are 1190mm x 2350mm x 3350mm and have a 1.20:1 optical zoom lens, plus digital zoom and both horizontal & vertical keystone correction. These projectors would generally be capable of use in a situation with 50 - 100 people depending upon the exact circumstance of usage. We'll be happy to advise you ir required..
