A perfect coffee table companion

Panasonic's PT-AX200E projector is great for both viewing data and movies thanks to impressive image quality and unaltered colour reproduction, but lacks Full HD output.

A wonderful projector that packs together some of the best qualities of DLP and LCD technology, for under $4000. What more could you ask for?

Panasonic's PT-AE2000U is a projector that performs well compared to its competition, but it needs some tweaking to achieve the best image quality.

If you have the cash to spend and you want the very best, the PT-AE1000 should be at the top of your shopping list. With impeccable image quality at 1080p, 1080i, 720p and SD modes we have no hesitation in recommending this unit.

Perhaps the best projector available at the moment in terms of price, quality and features.

Expensive, yet worth the money.

Sanyo's PLV-Z3 runs quietly and produces outstanding images for a home theatre model. The only catch is the 'flyscreen' inherent to LCD technology.

A good projector, but not quite as good as the Z3, and with a few minor annoyances.

If you're in the market for a top-notch home theatre projector, you can't go wrong with the Sanyo PLV-Z5.

A great product in its day, but now superseded.

The PLV-Z2000 is a projector that offers great picture quality, which is only slightly hampered by a small overall screen size and low brightness.
