| Personal Experience |
| Purchased the Sharp Z90U because of the stellar reviews I read online. Unfortunately, the main draw for me was the constrast, gorgeous colors which are produced by the Z90U's 5x color wheel, and lastly the DVI input. Well, 2 out of 3 ain't bad was what Meatloaf sang. Unfortunately, for me it was bad. The contrast was excellent, and the colors were incredible. But for some strange reason, the DVI connection would not accept 1080i signal. I called Sharp and they couldn't figure it out either. So I was forced to return because I wanted 1080i and the Sharp Z90U could not deliver. Overall, not a pleasant experience. That said, if you can live with 480p/720p via DVI then this is the projector for you in this price range. |
| Problems |
| The DVI input will not accept 1080i properly. Component inputs will do 1080i, but if you try to use DVI input, the Sharp will have many difficulties obtaining the proper signal. All it does is flash on and off. It tries connecting at 540p but never locks on. VERY FRUSTRATING. |
