Short Throw Projectors & Stands

wndsr · 4 Jun 2014 at 11:13

Bit of a random one... I'm looking for some decent short throw projectors to be mounted to the ceiling and used in conjunction with a Smart Board.

Are there any strong brands in this area that I should be looking for? Budget of about £500-£600 per projector.

Cheers

Benq W1080ST but is a bit over your budget. lol - but moreso a home cinema projector.

If you have a look on the EduGeek forums you'll find loads of stuff about projectors and smartboards. But I think you'll have to up your budget.

You should probably look at ultra short throw rather than just short throw. There are 10 projectors in your price range that fit the bill.

Ultras mount so close that there's virtually no shadow from you as your using the board. Depending whether you need 4:3 or 16:9 have a look at the InFocus IN124ST or Hitachi CP-DW25WN. If this is educational then trust me a message. I might be able to put you in touch with someone who specialises in getting extra funding for IT projects in schools.
