“There’s not a good or bad projection surface, but there’s always the right surface for your application.”
Jan Walter from AV Stumpfl perfectly summed up the thinking behind the projection screen comparison wall we built for Mediatech Africa.
Using different Fullwhite profiles across a range of frames, we were able to show how the choice of surface can influence the final image and why screen specification needs to take the wider application into account.
Viewing angles, brightness, contrast, ambient light and the environment all play a part, which is why the screen surface should be considered alongside the projector from the outset.
