RE: Nikon Coolpix S1000pj: Does anyone know if this can be used as a regular projector as well?

I don't think it would work as a regular projector. I just tried the projection option and to get a real clear picture you have to be fairly close to wall which in turn makes the picture you are projecting small. It wouldn't project a big enough picture for a presentation.

Yes, that is true! i have this projector at 1 year ago with 2 viewsonic active shutter glasses and a PS3 320Gb (move) with the last fw 3.56 for 3D support and NEVER, "NEVER" can see in 3D... grrrrrr!!! i do try softwares to generate 3D with the laptop like Tridef, etc with no lucky... i am an experimented technical user and reading a lot about this think the last thing to do is wait the last presentation of Viewsonic, the VP3D1 3D converter box to use with the projector... is the same of the Optoma 3D-XL, but i hope the VP3D1 are cheapest! sorry my bad english! :)

Hi beck. I am sorry I can't answer that for you. We only use it for our business in meetings and trainings. I am sure that it would be fine as a home projector as well. I just don't know about outdoors. I am sorry I am very little help here. Enjoy your summer. Cindy

Thanks very much. By the way, we have a Canon G12. I feel it too distorting both colours and proportions and of course slow between 2 clicks. What would you suggest to improve on "fidelity" and speed: A. Canon S100 over Nikon P7100 (and Olympus XZ-1?)?B. Olympus E-PM1 over Nikon J1? C. or Nikon V1 solves everything? PS. I have no Nikon lenses so I am not stuck on Nikon. Thanks

Hello, greetings from Colombia. I haven't tried these camera on this situations. However, I have used it in almost all others such as portraits, landscapes, macro etc. I am also making some high quality videos of my model airplane kit manufacture to be uploaded to YouTube. All results have been far better than expected. So, I presume that if you use your camera on the situations you need, it won't let you down. I still think that the D3200 is a professional featured camera costing thousands of dollars less than, for instance, the D4 or the D800. I suggest you join the forum Nikonites.com It has been a great help for me and people there are very nice indeed Good luck!!! Hello, greetings from Colombia.

If you plan to use a gobo projector independent of this yes. You can't, however, use a gobo on this.

Yes. I love mine. Very portable, yet has a very clear image. I own a full size projector also, so I spoiled myself and bought this one for trips.

Hi, Douglas! I saw what you discussed about the lances and the whole camera and I want to ask you if you have any experiance with Nikon Coolpix 5700 (I have that one) and how is it against Canon DigitalRebel XT? Is it much more I'll "earn" if I switch to Canon? Thank you in advance!Ivan Hristov, Houston, TX

Yes you can. I was looking at a $6k projector and decided I would try this and at the very worst use this outside if I did not like it. I love this projector.

This is a little large for the Coolpix. There may not be enough area around the LCD to attach the viewfinder - you know this is not an EVF, but an optical attachment, right? It's as big as the S9500! Mainly used for DSLR videography -

Yes. We did some thing like this. The original wouldn't all fit in the camera's area at once. I added alignment marks on the original. It worked great. Just don't move the camera head or the projector once you start.

Thanks, John. Now if only I had pockets big enough both to purchase the S5 IS *and* to hold its bulk. :-/ So I guess I'm still wondering: Just what the heck IS the reason none of the pocket-size digi-cams seem to allow zooming in video mode? Too expensive? Too noisy? Simply not possible due to some technical constraint? If anyone has a good answer, I'd still like to know. Thanks for the good discussion so far...

If the projector really is a 3D projector, you must switch it into SBS mode. Any 3D projector capable of SBS mode should work fine.

The camera has an HDMI output port and came with a mini-HDMI to HDMI cable which connects to my HDTV. Playback is controlled in the camera and displayed on the TV in high definition. If your projector has an HDMI input, I'm sure it would work perfectly. The instruction book also indicates that you can connect to a non-HD TV (and presumably this would include an non-HD projector) by use of a special AV cable that is sold separately. This connects using the camera's "Multi" port, and has standard RCA plugs - 1 for video, 2 for audio for the TV side. I haven't tried this and don't have the cable. The instruction book also recommends that, when playing back on a TV or projector, you should use the AC adapter (which is sold separately). I presume they recommend this so that you will not run out of battery power during your presentation.

You can but I would go with a little more expensive one. This one good for movies and DVD projections. If your going to use it all the time for power points. I would invest into a more name brand one.

Hi Joel, i re-read what other people say about this cam..pls read Vance Marshall's comments too, it sums up what poorly it does. the touch screen is not as responsive. it doesn't function in indoor low lighting..its program robot kept focusing in low light, in fact won't do the job afterall. i didnt return this cuz the hassle of returning + it's only a hundred bux..i tried it in well lit indoor, the resulting photo was grainy. i know what im talking about cuz i also own a D-90..this is only CUTE AND TINY..is all..not for a real photographer..i bought another coolpix before = S3000 cuz of Ashton Kutcher commercial..that sucked too! i gave it away..the only reason i kept buying Nikon is bc the big dslr's are good..aside from D90 i have a d5100.. this sounds ridiculous telling i have cameras..i am just comparing the cool pix to dslrs..hope this helps!

I have an MP 225. But as long as your projector has a VGA end, it should work.
