I had the projector for 4 years. After using for 1000 hours, I experienced a catastrophic failure (LCD block)Tech support refused to fix the issue because it was out of warranty. I recently discovered several others experienced the same issue. I understand that products fail all the time and Mitsubishi can't repair/replace every projector that fails. But when a product has limited use and becomes useless due to a manufacturer defect, they need to make it right. Mitsubishi did not. I will never buy another Mitsubishi product.

Das Gerät begeistert mich immer wieder durch die brilliante Bildqualität und die leise kaum hörbare Arbeitsweise. Top Qualität, gute einfache Bedienung.

I got the most awsome deal on this baby at a local retailer.I paid only $495.00 for it. It was the display unit but had only 40 Hours on the lamp based on the internal timer.I have a HC3000U 720p Mitsubishi DLP projector as well.I was very pleased with my HC3000U and had no real reason to spend the extra money on a 1080p projector until I got this one for such a steal.I truly like the motorized zoom, focus and lens shift that this unit has.It makes for a really easy installation.As for the picture I like the color reproduction and the sharpness.The biggest difference that I see between the HC 4900 and the HC 3000 is that the picture from the 4900 is more vivid. I always felt that the image from the HC3000 was on the soft side.I will say that the HC4900 does not have the same quality of black levels as did the HC3000. I would imagine that this is due to the difference in the technology being used LCD vs. DLP. I oredered the Joe Kane Digital Video Essentials Blu-Ray disc and expect to receive it this week.I am sure that once I do a calibration of the projector it will only get better.Just one more comment for those debating 720p vs. 1080p.Save the money. Both projectors produce an excellent picture with no real difference seen between the two. When watching a 110" picture from at least 8 foot away you will never see the difference in the pixel count.Unless you walk up to the screen and see the difference in pixel density you will there ver be an appreciable differnce, and nobody sits that close to the screen anyways.

Just wanted to add my two cents worth. We have been using the HC4900 in place of a television in our home for nearly a year. While I am a technical expert, this was a no brainer to install, and even though I used a "temporary" 120" screen purchased from walmarts fabric dept for about $14.00 (silver vinyl)I could not be happier. I have assisted in installing $30k home theatres and the only improvement I could make would be a better screen (researching now to order the electric drop down silver screen) I chose the HC4900 for its price vs. specifications. Before this we had an inexpensive 720p projector with a 4:3 ratio meant for business use. We wanted the widescreen format and 1080P. We use xbox360, Sony Blu-ray and a Cable TV high-def DVR with HDMI out into a Sony 7.1 surround sound unit as a switch.This setup could not be simpler, or less expensive, with outstanding results!Dont waste your money on a more expensive projector!! This one is absololutely awesome!! Our usage of it borders on abuse, and it has been spectacular. Why anyone would buy a television today is beyond me.We are getting the warning on startup that the lamp is about to die because I am ashamed as a parent to admit that I have about 4200 hours already on the lamp. I am not sure if that is projector abuse or child abuse, but either way this projector rocks! I would guess that the average user would have to replace the lamp every two years or so for about $250.00 or basically $10.00 a month.Definately the best bang for the buck on home entertainment out there!P.S. Don't forget the popcorn machine....

First off, here is a little bit information about my setup.I have this unit mounted in my living room which is about 16 feet by 12 feet in dimensions. I have it ceiling mounted approximately 14 feet from the screen I'm projecting onto. I currently run one HDMI source and two component sources to the unit; my Playstation 3 (1080p), XBOX(720p), HD Cable(720p, 1080i).And as for the unit itself:It outperforms my best expectations.It is almost absolutely silent. My XBOX is louder than the projector is.The image is 100" diagonal, crystal clear, vibrant in color, and the blacks are black. The image is perfect, I never see a delay in the image or fault in the clarity.What I would call it's only fault is that it doesn't come with keystone correction. So for a perfectly even, rectangular image you have to mount the projector completely level. This however isn't much of a fault, any time you change the keystone it degrades the resolution (or as I understand it). However if you don't like the fact that your image is being displayed too high or too low, the projector does have lens shift feature which allows you to move the image from the left, right, up or down. So even if you have it completely even with you ceiling you can still have an eye level image.The universal mounting bracket I got for the unit had four handles to attach to the projector, however the HC4900 has only three screw holes for mounting brackets. It however is very stable.The ANSI lumens is 1000, but I haven't had a problem with too much light in the room. I can watch movies with two lamps on and not experience a problem.All and all I'm very happy with my purchase.
