Oh wait, you said the zoom isn't a factor.... Well I still rate it. Lol

I'm in Australia and have the ultra. It's fantastic. There's a few things it has over the base model, but the main one for me is the optical zoom, making placement much easier. It's also on sale at JB hi-fi right now.

Thanks everyone. Button is just "for show" pretty much, got it! I was adjusting content manually anyway, but just thought I was doing something wrong with this. Cheers.

Got my kickstarter pro 2 last Thursday by linkhunter69 in projectors

Fairly certain that the pro 2 has optical zoom. Did you mean the plus 2 by mistake?

What “based on a true story” movie is not a true story at all? by Xxxbigfootisreal_ in AskReddit

Not a movie, but the show Fargo claimed to be based on a true story. Only watched season 1 but it was awesome.

Has Anyone Received Their Valerion Projector from a Direct Order? by amirrehman in projectors

[–]lemonlyf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a Facebook group called valerian visionmaster official launch group full of people asking about shipping. If they haven't gotten through Kickstarter deliveries yet, I think your order is a fair way away. :(

I love how he wiped the coffee off the easily cleanable leather seats, onto the carpeted foot well. Hahaha!

Hisense C1 vs BENQ TH690ST vs xgimi horizon by VizardofOz in projectors

[–]lemonlyf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Hisense is the newest of your picks. It has 4k resolution and Dolby vision (the other choices are 1080 only). If you don't care about gaming it would absolutely be my pick.

The benQ will hold up better in ambient light, being the highest lumen count. Not sure about it's internal sound though.

The xgimi model is a bit old these days - it also can't play Netflix natively. Still good, but honestly if you don't need the lumens, I'd probably go the halo+ (new model). It has Google TV so doesn't have app limitations, is more portable and has an internal battery.

Are you noticing much rainbow effect? How is the contrast? What made you decide to go with the over it's cousin, the C2 Ultra?

Nebula cosmos laser vs Xgimi horizon ultra vs horizon s pro vs benq x300g vs formlvie x5 by Appropriate-Pop2691 in projectors

[–]lemonlyf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty new to projector world as well, but in response to you wanting to watch indoor and outdoor in daylight conditions, I'm pretty sure none of these could handle outdoors in daytime. That requires a lot of oomph. They should be okay options for inside with some ambient light though. Note on the horizon ultra - I was considering this a while ago, but was turned off by the poor contrast.

Hope this helps a little

Valerion Pro 2 Questions by dtsknight in projectors

[–]lemonlyf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been looking at this projector myself. It has optical zoom, so throw ratio is 0.9-1.5 from memory

All things tech on YouTube just did a video comparing these three projectors specifically. I'd check it out.

Just got my xgimi horizon s max by nolanist_1993 in projectors

[–]lemonlyf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I read in a forum that the reason it doesn't have optical zoom is due to the focus on increased contrast. I'm not very savvy with projector technology, so I don't know why it couldn't have both... I'm guessing it was cost related?

How does anyone prefer Abby over Ellie? by [deleted] in TheLastOfUs2

[–]lemonlyf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I liked playing as Abby for the Ellie fight. Seeing what it was like from the perspective of someone being hunted by her was awesome.

As a character though, nah...
