Viewsonic recently announced its Precision Pro8100, a 1080p LCD projector, claiming it position in one of the most affordable 1080p LCD projector category with price of $4,995 (MSRP) with its Epson’s C2Fine™ panel and Silicon’s optic Hollywood Quality Video (HQV) technology. The projector uses ViewSonic’s proprietary Precision Color System (PCS), an image enhancement technology that renders natural colors with extensive tuning capabilities and Silicon Optic best in line VX-210 to achieve finest image reproduction, with the specification of 1000 lumens and dynamic contrast ratio 13000:1.

What this means for us is another glorify 1080p LCD projector that is somewhat affordable but most importantly, competitions will be fierce in this market. This will hopefully draw the prices of LCD projectors and as well as LCD TVs to a new lower prices.
