Best Epson EpiqVision EH-LS800 deal
In our Epson EH-LS800W 4K PRO-UHD review, we gave the projector a solid and respectable four out of five stars. We would have bumped that up to the full five had it not been for the fact that dark scenes look too grey and the picture sometimes seems a bit soft. As a result, we found it "a decent bright-room projector, but it becomes much less convincing when you dim the lights".
The 4000 lumens of claimed brightness beats even the Leica Cine 1 – a result that perhaps owes something to the Epson’s use of an LCD rather than a DLP-based optical system. This impressive brightness delivers a more noticeable step up from SDR to HDR sources, with both baseline brightness levels and intensity of bright peaks, than the vast majority of other projectors can manage.
The brightness levels could result in poor saturation, but that's not the case with the EH-LS800W. Instead, it consistently looks rich and vivid. LCD technology also enables it to deliver its brightness without showing any hint of the rainbow effect (colour striping noise) that usually crops up to some degree with UST projectors that use DLP technology.
The main problem with the LS800 is that it can’t rein in its eye-catching brightness well during dark scenes. Where there should be blackness in an image, you instead get a pretty milky grey colour that robs dark scenes of their naturalism and, at times, quite a lot of shadow detail, leaving proceedings looking rather flat and hollow.
It’s important to stress that some of the LS800’s limitations – especially its lack of black depth – become much less noticeable if you’re using it in a room with ambient light. As a result, if you know your environment will mitigate the projector's limitations, then the Epson EH-LS800W at a price of £2449.99 is well worth a look.
