Does anyone use or recommend using this to project a 74"x130"(150" diagonal) image as I do this with my current 3000 lumen projector?

Short answer, yes. Use this calculator when considering projectors. http://www.projectorcentral.com/projection-calculator-pro.cfm

No I have never used this for a projector. But However I do have a lot of stuff on mine. I put a pyle pro wireless system on it which is about 9lbs, and on top of that I use a Mouse over image to zoom I have never used a projector, but I use a pyle pro wireless mike receiver and on top of that I use a Dell Latitude D530 which is very heavy. It is very sturdy, but make sure you place it in the middle or it will tilt, because of the wing nuts that are underneath, I can't seem to get them tight enough, but my brother-in-law can. I love it for what we use it for, it's compact, and light weight. No I have never used this for a projector. But However I do have a lot of stuff on mine.

If you're using this for a business purpose, I would recommend a projector with more lumens. This is a great projector for personal/entertainment use.

We use it in our sanctuary occasionally and it projects best (full daylight) at about 60 ft. The picture would be too zoomed out if we went further - larger than the wall screen. We use a 5000 lumen projector normally for 150 ft.

I think it really depends on how close to the wall/screen you are mounting the projector. Mine is 16 feet from the front of the projector to the wall and easily covers every bit of my 10' 8" (diagonal) screen with excellent resolution. So from 12 feet you should be able to project a very large quality image.

I believe you need to move the projector closer for the image to get smaller or farther away to get larger. I really haven't used this projector yet, so you might want to contact tech support at Artograph.

I think this screen is like 90" diagonal so you'll want a projector that can project around that number so you don't have a lot of white space when watching something. Most projectors project from like 20"-80" and up so all you have to do is move the projector closer or further away from the screen to get the size you want! But just make sure the projector you buy can reach at least 80" diagonally otherwise the picture won't be as clear on the screen and there will be a lot of extra white space!

I didn't actually check the extremes so I probably can't give you a great answer. Have you checked out one of these calculators? http://www.projectorcentral.com/projection-calculator.cfm....It was helpful for me. I can tell you I'm projecting from around 14 ft and it looks great on a 133" diagonal screen. There's a decent discussion that helped me here: http://www.avsforum.com/t/1271155/throw-distance-optoma-hd20Hope that helps!

I feel very confident this would suit your needs if your projector composite/rca (red, white, yellow) connectors. Bear in mind this is not hi-resolution so it may get grainy if you intend to project the image any larger than a few feet.

No projector is going to work in that kind of setting. YOu really need a darkened room. Even in a room with natural light coming in multiple windows I had to wait for the sun to set to see the images. It's not a function of this projector. It's a function of projection in general.

There are a lot of factors that go into answering this including size of the projected image, ambient light, whether you're doing front projection or rear projection and the surface upon which you are projecting the image. I use mine primarily in front projection mode on a 132 inch diagonal Camp Chef screen outdoors. The image looks every bit as good as my high-definition flatscreen television in the living room.

So I just purchased this.... my projector is 13.5 feet away from the screen and I MIGHT be getting 80inch... is there a setting i'm missing? i've adjusted everything I can manually

The projector at 10 ft would throw a very large display probably 110" the problem these projectors have with text is that they use a diamond pixel instead of a square pixel so the edges of text can be fuzzy. If you are using this in a presentation or business environment it will not be bright enough with any light of any magnitude. An open window will wash out colors and contrast. Go with the ml500 (same diamond pixel problem but brighter) or choose a laser / led hybrid with a different dlp chip. I'm not saying this isn't a good projector for its purpose (portability) but if text is your first consideration and portability comes in at a five or six in the list then this isn't the right one for you.

I am using the projector in a room that seats 150 people with large windows and moderate amounts of sunlight. We do not use shades in our room and this projector is working great for us. Typically used in the mid morning time frame and colors/images show up great on a pull down projection screen. I've tried it on the wall too and it has great image their as well

87x110=137" Diagonal it's come, but you can use up to 130" diagonal for the projector screen of 4:3......

Absolutely! I used this last summer for outdoor movies during the evening projecting on just the light color siding of the house. The picture was great over 12' maybe 15 feet. This year I purchased a 12' screen but set it up once. I was able to make the image small or beyond the 12' for a good video. I now use this daily in my master bedroom projector which is about 70". Even during the day indoors it is still good.
