![Best Mini Projectors 2024 [don’t buy one before watching this]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/pQ8vi0tWgvQ/mqdefault.jpg)
I invested in the Pico Genie Impact 2 Plus and it is fab! I usually work on 24x30 inch canvases so this little gem of a projector is a massive help.
I do all image editing on the computer first so I'm left with the desired picture, which means less fiddling with the projector! I place the Pico on a tripod and the canvas on my easel, then straighten with a spirit-level. Works a treat! Don't know how I managed without it tbh.
Nice! Thank you.
Very helpful, thank you 🙏🏽
Very welcome 🤗
I got a very similar looking projector, made by Kodak.
Mine has a micro SD slot, which makes everything very easy.
I've found it invaluable for saving time with a drawing. Especially good for portraits, which are a pain for me, time wise.
Sounds great! I really only use my phone and the E-Share app so personally I don’t require an sd slot but great to know 😀
Could you please share the model?
@@hadiboya It's the Kodak DLP wireless cube Mini LED projector, model number RODPJC100W.
If you look up that particular model, and note its look, you'll find the same model under different names, for sale. Some have different features.
@@jeffreybarton1297 Hi' how small can you get the image, would it go small enough for a 30x 40cm canvas?
@@beachlife2968 Yes, easily. The size of the image is governed by how close you put the canvas to the projector. I've projected images on a canvas that was only 15 cm square with no trouble.
Do you have a link for the overhead rig you used please?
Looks perfect for this sort of thing. Unfortunately it is not available in Canada or the US!
If you have an easel, do you mind showing us how you project an image on the canvas on the easel. This looks easy enough but I dont understand how to make the picture match the proportions of the canvas. Hope that makes sense. Also thanks for sharing!
Hello! I have an easel and a canvas I’ve been meaning to show but not got round to starting it yet so this is an incentive to try it out and hopefully give some good tips. I will use the projector on a tripod and set my easel straight with a spirit level, the rest will have to wait until I’ve tried it 😅
@@mufitoart Oh wow lucky me! I think it will also be very helpful to many artists because I am struggling to find any video that explains how to match the proportion of the image to the canvas size. Like for example if the canvas is a square and the image is a rectangle. I've subscribed so I won't miss it thanks a lot!
@@banandababa I will work on it this month… and I also have the amazing opportunity to try a larger projector and do a wall mural! Woohoo (never done one in my life)! lol 😂 but hey it’s not all about perfection it’s about trying things out and learning from your experience and hopefully it will help someone else 😄🤞🏼♥️
How do you hang the projector facing down on the desk?
Great video, just wondering if you have any ideas of projectors that show grids, values, black and white, maybe handset. The autograph ones went while back they seemed to have most qualities, told aught to go for something with lots lumens etc... looking for one that you think has it all budget less than 500 dollars. Has to be with features such as values etc.. that help when painting. thanks lots
Hello! The only one I came across that had grids was the artograph but they don’t produce them anymore I think after covid the company just ceased.
As for blacks/whites values I would adjust the image on photoshop or an app and then project it. You really can’t have it all at a budget price and from my research this pico genie was the best I found at an affordable price. I haven’t tried many others but I’m really happy with this one 😊😊
@@mufitoart They were bought out by Kodak !
Ahora que la tecnología ayuda con lo más difícil el " dibujo" han aparecido muy rápidamente maestros del arte del dibujo y la pintura, por lo tanto ya no tendrá nunca más un buen reconocimiento de las personas hacia los verdaderos Artistas.
Gracias por tu comentario. Es cierto que no todos pueden dibujar como Michelangelo, Goya o Rembrandt, pero eso no quita el hecho de que aún seas un artista muy hábil con el lápiz. Cada uno tiene su propio estilo y contribución al mundo del arte.
Hello from Florida. my wife purchase the Pico Genie 2.0 and has had wonderful results from her sketches. But now for some reason the proportions are off. She casts from me Mac to the Pico Genie and the image is bigger on paper than the screen. Do you have and advice on how to fix this?
James
Sorry trying to get my head around what could be the problem , I only use the EShare app as I find that the easiest. But I would definitely email the team at www.personalprojector.co.uk. They are really helpful 😊
Hi, I just bought the projector thanks your video and it's great, may I ask the whicj overhead rig you are using? Thanks!
Hi! I bought it from Belgium but thej are out of stock right now 😣 I have emailed them to see when they will have them back and I will let you know as soon as they have them (-:
@@mufitoart Hi Madeleine, thank you for getting back to me, I have checked online and on Amazon and some of their products are professional grade and very expensive but I did find a boom they make which attaches to a regular existing tripod. Which is the model that you are using?
@@pablitolondon I’ve tried boom arms but I found them tricky to position and not very stable. The Proaim rig was the best solution for both attaching the projector and camera l.

@@mufitoart Thank you for the tip and the link Madeleine, that's great!
what kind of overhead rig do you have to project down onto paper
I have one I can put on top of my desk by Proaim the ship from Belgium
This would be ideal for me but the overhead rig is a bit rich for me.
Me too. Would be handy but you don't need it. I have the Pico Genie on a (camera) tripod and easel for the canvas with spirit-level to align them. Works a treat!
What did you use to hold the projector so steady above you?
Hi! sorry for delay... It is an overhead rig by PROAIM
@@mufitoart Hi again, which is the model of the Proraim you used?
Yes, please, what model number of Proaim?
I just bought the Pico Genie Impact 4.0 plus and it doesn't detect my USB, HDMI nor microSD card!! I've been trying to make it work for 4 hours now! Fuming. The only thing working is the mirror image from my ipad / iphone and TH-cam and Netflix which I am not bothered about. Can you PLEASE tell me how to fix my USB etc detection issues. Desperate for this to work.
Hello, sorry to hear this. I am not trained to fix issues I’m afraid, I only did this review on my own projector. I would highly recommend you contact Personal Projector on + 44 (0) 1924 589 589 or email them and they will be able to help you with this. 😊
Please, I would like a link to purchase the bracket installed for the projector
Sorry which ‘bracket’ are you asking about. Reminder: I’m an artist, not a shop.
@@mufitoart
In the minute 3:28, the projector became on top.. My question is how was it installed.. Is there a stand.. If yes.. I want to know the name so I can buy it.. Thank you
I will get back to you tomorrow and send you a link of the shop where I got it 😉😃
Hello I purchased this projector and got everything set up (WiFi, BT), but after the keystone completed, I clicked OK then home, but my image dosn't project, it is displayed on my phone but can't seam to get image through the projector. Can you help?
Have you downloaded the app Eshare? That's how I get my image projected if I use my onions wirelessly if n out you can also connect the phone with a cable. I hope this helps. If not the customer service at personal projector are amazing !!
Thank you Madeline. Yes I have Eshare loaded and I have gotten the image then after keytone the image dissapeared and I couldn't retreave it. I will email customer service as I'm in USA. Thanks again for your reply.@@mufitoart
@@RRNavroth Hmm 🤔 Maybe close down the app and re open it? I know it can sometimes take a couple of minutes but It has worked for me 😊
How much does it cost?
can you tell me how much this cost in the USA? If not, how much is shipping would be?
Hello, I think the best thing to do is to add it to the basket and then it will tell you the postage charge. I don’t sell them so I don’t really know (-;
I just bought one and sent it back. It didn't have an SD card slot, which is badly needed for photos taken from a camera.
Ok… it does not say anywhere on the description that it has an sd card slot but I don’t understand why you felt the need to tell me? 🤷♀️🤦♀️ this kind of comment you should direct to the shop not me.
Furthermore I transfer the image if I’ve used a camera onto my laptop or my phone then easily project it. I don’t see that it’s difficult to do….
It has a USB socket, transfer images to memory stick and display from there. Alternatively you can store the images directly on the internal memory from the memory stick (Format the stick to NTFS format - max size 32GB)

Gracias 😊
EDIT - I ordered the #3 Genie version and can NOT recommend. It has bad “screen door effect”. The resolution is only 420 which is pathetic. I says 1080 compatible on the website but that is not the resolution it displays. Display is highly pixelated

Are you still happy with the Pico? Since you posted over one year ago. There are NO other reviews on this for some reason that I can find.
Sorry I missed this message
I’m still using it regularly and yes very happy with it, it’s helped so much saving time. 🙌🏼✍🏼😃
I’m really happy with mine, for the budget price I don’t obviously expect the best quality image but it’s good enough did the work I do. 🤩 but the guys at personal Projector are amazing and they will help put things right 🙌🏼

I use Apple so I can't advise you, but I suggest you contact the guys at personalprojector.co.uk and they will most certainly be able to help you with any problems (-:
Well, nice ,but not exactly cheap is it for such a tiny projector? OK, it's not as expensive as you can get out there but, it's just not coming across as a Bargain at the price.? 😮😮
Lol I don’t think I said it was a bargain, but it’s a competitive price compared to others. Unless you want to get one cheap on Amazon or eBay that won’t last that long or be as good. I did my research and I bought the pico genie for myself and it’s been a great investment. I didn’t get it for free to review it unfortunately 😅.
@@mufitoart Point taken , I suppose it's All about what your Budget is . And I can see your a Rich lady .😁😁Me ! I`m a peasant 😁😁
@@tommytitmouse lol 😂 no I’m not rich I bought an expensive projector 🤣🤣🤣 I just like quality. Like the saying ; you buy peanuts you get monkeys ! Have a lovely weekend 😁😉
@@mufitoart Just pulling your leg. Well i`m off to eat a banana so,You have a great W/E too .👍
@@tommytitmouse love it!! Gosh 😅
