Amazon.com Product Description
Forget the mere 70 inches of even large flat-panel displays, the HC1500 DLP Projector lets you project a high definition image hundreds of inches large. With its quiet operation and huge, beautiful picture, the HC1500 could make your home cinema the envy of all your neighbors. 
The HC1500 is just 6.5 pounds and has 1600 ANSI lumens of brightness and a 2500:1 contrast ratio. View larger. View product details. | 
The HC1500 can project an image up to 275 inches for a true theater experience. | True HD Images
The HC1500 DLP projector projects video in a native 720p format so you get a highly detailed HD picture that looks crisp even at large sizes. It features Texas Instruments BrilliantColor, which utilizes a seven-segment color wheel and an algorithm that enables brighter mid-tones and more realistic color. The HC1500 also offers 1600 ANSI lumens of brightness and a 2500:1 contrast ratio. Depending on the size of your room, you can project the image from 40 inches to 275 inches diagonal. The HC1500 has a lamp life of 3000 hours in low mode and 2000 hours in bright mode. Pure Connection From Source to Screen
The HC1500 has HDMI 1.2 and component cable connections to ensure a pure input signal from beginning to end. With 10-bit processing, the information is unsullied and the result is a pure image on the screen. Be advised that this projector (as with most projectors) does not include a tuner; to watch television, you need to provide a television signal, either through an external tuner or a cable box. Easy Set Up and Quiet Operation
At just 6.5 pounds, the HC1500 is easy to transport and move around in your home theater room, and it has both vertical and horizontal digital keystone correction that makes it easy to mount on the ceiling or place on a table. The HC1500 operates at a quiet 25dBA that won't distract you while you're enjoying movies or television. A 12-volt Trigger jack allows the projector to control a compatible motorized screen. A remote control with backlit buttons is included. The HC1500 is backed by a 1-year limited parts and labor warranty, and a 90-days lamp warranty. What's in the Box
HC1500 projector, AC power cable, RGB cable, RS-232C cable, remote unit with battery, light shade cover, quick start card, user's manual, and safety manual.

 Nice July 15, 2008
This is a very nice projector. I havent had any problems with it what so ever. My screen size is 7 feet 6 inches wide by 4 feet 3 inches tall. You havent played GTA 4 (XBOX 360) till youve played it like this! A++++
 great product July 8, 2008
I am totally thrilled. This is my first HD device. So, for a 720P/1080i device, it meets all my expectations.
Great picture - great product July 7, 2008
My wife is great. For our anniversary, she bought me a 92 inch projection screen. I asked her, what am I supposed to do with this? She said "make an outdoor theater". Well, we do live in southern California. I consider myself an expert on consumer electronics, but had not tackled projectors So, I did a week's worth of research on them. I only required 720p and wanted to stay under $1000. I also wanted a lot of brightness and did not want to worry about lamp alignment, so a DLP seemed the right way to go. This one and the model it replaced had a very loyal following and was at the top of many reviews, so I bought it.
I hung the screen between two French doors. When I want to watch a movie, I turn my Tannoy speakers around and put them in the open French doors, carry the projector outside, hook up the HDMI to a DVD player, and run the audio to my receiver.
The HC1500 is great. Easy to set up, a lighted remote, and light-weight. It has an on screen menu that is easy to navigate and intuitive. It doesn't waste components with an LED to tell you the lamp hours, it is easily obtainable in the menus. It also has a two year warranty. This is my first Mitsubishi product, and I am very happy with it.
A lot of projector for the buck July 7, 2008
I could not be happier with my projector. The HC 1500 is very good. I am using it in my basement in a recent remodel which ended up being a 500 sqf home theather/ media center. The wall (not using screens or other artifacts) it is projecting is a 150" (diagonal). The only thing that surprise me in a not so positive way was the distance the projector requires away from the wall in order to get that size of screen which is around 20 ft away. I am glad I chose the Vantage Point CGUPM12-S Universal Front Projector Mount because I ended up in need to mount against the opposite wall in order to don't lose any size in projection. Thios is my first projector so this maybe a caracteristic all others wqoul have anyway.
NOW LETS TALK ABOUT THE PICTURE. OMG. OMG. OMG. What a picture. And the blacks!! Perfect.
If you don't get a good picture with this equipment is because the source you are feeding it with is not good quality, I have nearly 100 music DVDs and you can see the difference in between them. Some have very good picture quality - some don't, so we can't expect the projector to fix it. Watch Shania Twain's "That don't impress me much" video to have your mouth falling from your head. The colors will blow your mind (besides she is a steal :D).
Excellent projector... July 5, 2008
I bought this after weeks of searching for a projector to use as a home "drive-in" setup. For those of you who want to take advantage of warm summer nights (with little to no wind!) this projector is perfect! You will have to wait until dusk to get a decent image on a decent screen, but by the time it gets dark you will have a spectacular image. The screen I'm using is 120" and the projector fills it up perfectly. The clarity and colors are fantastic for a lower end projector. Ease of use is great also. Comes with everything you need to plug in your input source (if it's not an Apple product).
The 1500 is truly a great way to get into the home theater hobby and start building your dream setup. I bought a screen from Dell, but Amazon had some great deals also. Drive-in setup cost was this:
Projector $760
Screen $130
Fence poles $ 20
Umbrella stds. $ 60
Total $970
If you have about $1000 you can have a great drive-in experience every night with family and/or friends and the added plus of being able to take it where you want to.
