When you want to share information with a room full of people nothing beats a projector. Before you buy a one, first consider the rental options available. If you want to show a boardroom full of people a slideshow presentation or a document or watch sport with a group of friends or even enjoy a movie night, it is hard to beat a projector. When a lot of people need to see the same thing, the bigger the screen the better.

We currently have two Optoma projector options to choose from. The two main differences distinguishing one from the other is the projectors brightness and resolution. These two factors affect the maximum size to which the projector can display an image.

Optoma WU416 projector hire from Cam-A-Lot Rentals

Vivitek DU978WT Projector Hire

This is the brightest projector we can offer, at a brightness output of 5000 lumens. This is bright for a projector in its class. To hire anything more powerful typically costs thousands of rand in rental per day. While projectors prefer to work in dark spaces this is the best choice when the ambient lighting is less than ideal. No projectors work well in bright light but this will perform better than most under those circumstances. No projector works in daylight our outdoors, always remember that the darker the better.

The resolution for this projector is 1920 x 1200. This means it is capable of handling full HD output. That resolution also means it has a native aspect ratio of 16:10, so it can easily handle 16:9 and even 4:3 content. This bright image has a contrast ratio of 15,000:1.

This projector offers a brightness of 4200 lumens. This is bright for a projector in its class. What this means in practical terms is that the projector will perform acceptably in less than ideal ambient lighting. Projectors prefer to work in dark spaces, the darker the better. Bright light washes out the pictures contrast and the black parts of images look grey instead of being deep and rich.

3m Fast Fold Screen

If you have a larger audience we have a 3m screen. Three meters makes for a sizable image, it is the equivalent of a 139” television screen. It comes with an amazing “fast fold” frame. This is an aluminium frame with hinges and locks which open up into the frame with impressive ease. The only assembly is to attach the frame to the legs at your desired height. The screen uses press studs to connect to the frame. The package comes with a front or rear projection screen so you can best match your desired setup. It all collapses down into a box 116 x 31 x 60cm which has wheels making it easier to transport.

Our other screen option is the floor standing, pull-up projector screen. This is super easy to set up. You place it on the floor and spread out its little feet. Telescope out the support arm to your desired height. Then pull out the screen from the base till it hooks onto the arm and you are all set in less than a minute. This screen is 1.8m wide so it can fit length ways into most cars so it can me easily transported.

Hiring a projector can be done at a fraction of the cost to purchasing one. While projecting an image offers much larger image sizes than Televisions offer, it is needed far less often so projectors are not utilised as often. To buy one you only use occasionally while needing to pay for maintenance and bulb replacements does not always make great investment sense. These problems are easily avoided when you opt for a projector hire option. You will avoid a high initial cost, maintenance, parts replacement and will also often have access to newer technology.
