Dreamstate The deepest black you can ever get on any projector is always the screen itself. That is why you view them in a dark room. You can't "project" black. For these projectors you do need a (typically) expensive ALR screen though. Also, the lumen figures are misleading for UST - they're spread over a much much wider angle than a normal projector so there's significant dropoff compared to a longer throw projector - that's WHY they have to be that bright. They're not really comparable.
is that wall coated with a special black paint, or is the optoma hz40ust able to project on black colored walls? will it be even brighter on a white wall?
Would have liked to see a button to pixel delay test for gaming but besides that, a decent review. Also, that tape measure looks like a good reason to keep your tetanus shots current =)
Just got one before few months...remote control doesn't work. I tried few more remotes and nothing. I guess it is faulty IR reciever. Or maybe bad firmware. Can't find anything from Optoma.
I hate reviews like this they leave out vital questions that needing answering. To brief for such a sophisticated item.. tut tut oh and that tape measure?
"you can generate a screen image of over 100 INCHES at just 30 CENTIMETERS from the wall..." Of course, we can all do the conversion but why start with inches and finish with centimeters?
We have one mount available on Amazon,designed for this ultra short throw projector www.amazon.com/dp/B07H1D8F87 ,which can work well with ultra short throw projector, with 3 fine tune adjustment knobs,making aligning the image from corner to corner extremely easily.
Thanks! I'm impressed, I've seen people using expensive grey screens. Often times the result is light grey color where the there should be white. That projector must be very bright to overcome that issue.
@@voyager4328 and then whats the point on going smaller as it defeats the whole point of it ...oh lets by a 42" that you cant see from 10 feet away... jeez...mentality of youth nowadsys i dunno 🙄😔
@@voyager4328 So, you're looking for a 100" display that can output 3D for a movie night with your neighbors... and your answer is to buy a *smaller* TV that can't do 3D, and requires everybody to sit on the floor/on top of each other. Pure genius.

the music made the review so dramatic that i had to grab some popcorn XD
Did you try any gaming?
Image looked great to be perfectly honest.thanks for the post 👍🏾
You had me at 4,000 lm, damn that impressive.
Now imagine a 4k 120fps HDR version LOL.

benjiebarker it’s not special paint it’s a gun metal color, it would appear a bit brighter on a light wall. The darker wall does add to the contrast
Can you ceiling mount this and have it projecting from above? (Can the image "flip" to accommodate this?)
Yes
WHAT IS THE WALL PAINT COLOR PLEASE
I have a setup similar to yours could you tell me what color paint you used on your wall or what material that is in black
toosweet241 hi. Have you looked into mica beads/powder normal black Matt paint for wall and some white paint to add so it’s not so black
@@delj3875 NEVER HEARD OF IT, IS THIER A WEBSITE, WHERE CAN I FIND IT
Love it!
Amazing !
Incredible!
Never going to buy it!
Way too much!
easy to set up and use
This doesn’t show up in the US market. It’s not on amazon US or EBay? The links show it only in the UK. Have they not released this yet?
how many cm from the screen if you want 120inch
Wow i am dying for this thing
I'm going to get a new projector but not this one
I want to use this projector on a 3x2,25 m screen... but will it be able to focus projecting such big image? The diagonal will be 146” aprox.
Would have liked to see a button to pixel delay test for gaming but besides that, a decent review.

Mordecai Walfish Me and that tape measure could tell some stories😁
I could not adjust the image size on mine. Could you please tell how to do it? Cheers, Paulo
use zoom>?
that tape . has seen the age of time
is the wall seen in your demonstration black or white?
Dark grey
Just got one before few months...remote control doesn't work. I tried few more remotes and nothing. I guess it is faulty IR reciever. Or maybe bad firmware. Can't find anything from Optoma.
That’s awesome
Nice video and room setup but man you need a brand new measuring tape. Haha

I was looking for this projector on optoma and the specs are not the same from yours.
isn't this the optoma zh400ust
Does it handle 24p natively?
what is the best paint for the ultra short throw project?
Is that normal paint or special one?
hi, what about judder? thanx a lot
Bro you should do giveaway not everyone is rich and I love projectors but don’t have enough money
Why 16 by 10? seems an odd choice. And as it's a DLP machine how bad are the rainbows?
Impressive
hello what would be the price of the spare lamp please
its laser the lamp is not removable but lasts 20,000 hours
so after 20000 hours (2 1/2 years running 24/24, I have to change device? it's not very interresant saw the price quite high 3000 €
@@negmarron9728 yeah if you need it running 24/7 this is not for you
@@negmarron9728 4 hrs a day is 14 years
It got a 100,000:1 contrast ratio not a 2,500,000:1 contrast ratio.
That tape measure rust..

That my friend is a fair point, well made, don't know why I did that!
What about gaming any input lag?
Go for the LG LED - ZERO LAG

What kind of paint did you use?
richardbixler it’s just a standard dark grey Matt paint, looks really good I’m loving the picture on a darker wall

It's a ZH40UST
Everything in the video was high-class....until I saw the measuring tape, uugghh.
You're not the first to say this lol, Ive since upgraded to a laser measure!
There are cheaper units out there that almost match this and have better sound optoma using their name to an advantage here
Hi,
What are they? Models
@@luismacedo5451 Im curious too...
2.5 grand, thats a LOT of money!, buy a top of the line 4K tv instead, and donate a chunk of money to a good cause.
