ProjectorReviews.com took a look at one of the hottest new 1080p projectors around, the Panasonic PT-AE1000U. It’s a 1080p 3LCD projector not to be confused with the 720p little brother, the PT-AX100U. Why they decided to name them so similarly is beyond me. This 1080p has an MSRP of $6k, but you might be able to find it for as low as $4k, making it the cheapest 1080p projector option around. It has a contrast ratio of 11,000:1, 1100 ANSI lumens, a 2:1 zoom lens, and both horizontal and vertical lens shift.

Projector Central recently reviewed this PT-AE1000U projector as well. They said that on SD material it was stunning, but on HD material it was good but slightly soft. ProjectorReviews thought it looked good as well, noticed the softness issue, but had some different caveats. The unit may have been damaged, giving the picture a slight discoloration that shift across the screen. The brightness isn’t very good, so you can’t have any ambient light when watching. On the other hand, pixels are invisible, the projector is quiet, and the picture quality was good out of the box.
