Cheapest 2k Projector.
Whats the cheapest 2k projector out there? From my understanding the best/value projector right now is the JVC RS series?

The jvc rs is not 2k. Though I’m not sure how much the extra 126 pixels buys you.

Yeah, I’m just wondering if for around the price of an RS (~12k) can you spend a couple grand more for a 2k projector? Or do you have to jump into the Barco world of 60k+?

Hi Rick,
When I was shopping around for a grading projector about 18 month ago at NAB, I came to that exact conclusion: there were no great options for my needs between $10k and $40k, and for 2K digital cinema work, really just around $60k and up. There were some possible alternates on the horizon then, which I could not wait on, including a smaller LED powered unit from Projection Design (now their website lists as discontinued?). I haven’t been paying much attention since, but I also haven’t heard of any developments that changed the landscape much.
Except that Red promised their 4K-laser-3D-no-calibration-necessary projector by the end of the year for $10k. They promised.

There is the NEC which is around 38k.

Yeah, I guess waiting for REDs 4K projector could be worth it..
What is the price range of the Projection Design projectors?
