The Hitachi PJTX10 projector is a curvy LCD front projection model with a clean white finish that can accept PAL, SECAM, and NTSC formats and displays in a 16:9 widescreen format.
While it is not small, it is good
looking, and has the benefit of having a ceiling
mount available.
The Hitachi PJTX10 projector has many benefits. All
of its connections are behind a drop-down panel so
as to not clutter the appearance of the projector.
These connections are S-video, composite video,
RS232 serial, component video, and RGB. This means
that the Hitachi PJTX10 is compatible with DVD
players, satellite receivers, video game consoles,
and computers!
The projector has a front exhaust fan. At 25dB in
whisper mode, the Hitachi PJTX10 is a super-quiet
projector that will not disrupt your viewing
experience with nose. Keep in mind that this does
dim the display somewhat. However, even in the full
dark you will need to keep the picture crisp when
running at whisper mode, you will be able to
navigate the backlit remote control.
The display options for the projector are rather
below optimal. The contrast ratio is only 800:1, and
it projects at only 700 ANSI lumens (560 ANSI lumens
in whisper mode). Also, its resolution is a midrange
854 x 480 pixels (SVGA), with an ability to project
an image between 30 and 300 inches (but is best at 5
feet away from the screen). However, the Hitachi
PJTX10 is rated as a budget projector, and it
performs very well compared to its competitors of
the same range. With proper lighting, the projector
performs very well, displaying deep blacks and rich
colors in natural tones.
