[edit] Comments
- There are several versions of this projector! The "P COM" and the "XENON" are the latest (and best) versions of this projector.
- You can replace the 3-bladed shutter with a 2-bladed one. This will increase the picture's brightness when projecting at 24fps, but will result in a "too flickery" 18fps projection.
