Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program The Epson product line consists of 118 projectors (seriously!) ranging from from home cinema to business and educational applications.
Its home cinema line begins with the budget PowerLite Home Cinema series, and extends up to the pro-grade PowerLite Pro Cinema family.
This particular unit falls towards the lower end of the budget offerings. As a result, my expectations were not particularly high. Unfortunately, the 707 met my expectations.
I used it to project on to a 135" diagonal screen in a dedicated light-controlled room. The results were decent, but not spectacular. The colors are natural, and image brightness is fine if you can control stray light.
The first thing that struck me was that the fan was surprisingly loud even when the projector had just been turned on. Fortunately, once the movie begins, this noise receded into white noise and was not too aggravating.
Though the picture was reasonable at the default settings, I was able to coax out a slightly better picture by playing with its picture options such as brightness, conrtast, color temperature and saturation. However, adjustment options are very limited and coarse grained.
The limitations of its 1280x800 resolution also become very apparent at higher projection sizes.
Overall, this is par for the course at this price point hence my 3-star (It's Okay) rating. Just don't go in expecting too much (such as true black) and you won't be disappointed.
