Both are backlit so that you can find what you're looking for in the dark. There are button controls on both of these projectors, but you'll be wedded to their remotes most of the time. If you want a few handy hints on the set-up process for your new purchase, don't forget our guide on how to set up your projector and get the best picture. It's far from a dealbreaker, just be careful when you place them back on, so as not to upset your carefully calibrated lens adjustments. While focus, zoom and lens shift are all motorised, neither of these two projectors has a motorised lens cap. This approach minimises any lens distortions. But, ideally, it's best to get the projector as close to the perfect placement as possible before using the lens shift. JVC states an upper limit of 200in on the diagonal.īoth the Sony and JVC have motorised lens shift features that allow you to move the image up, down, left and right, to virtually the same degree as one another, until the picture is right where it needs to be. The Sony also goes a fair bit bigger too, with the lens rated for a picture of up to 300in. The JVC will focus that same 100in from a minimum of 3.16m. If it's tight, then bear in mind that the focal length of the Sony is slightly shorter. If you're looking to achieve a 100in picture, you'll need at least 3.1m between the lens and your screen with the Sony. The size of your room itself is something to consider. Even so, these are not projectors to sit on your coffee table. At 14kg, it's considerably lighter than the JVC. If size and weight are limitations – if your ceiling bracket can only take so much, for example – then the Sony has the edge. With a footprint of around 50 x 50cm and weighing 20kg, make sure you have a decent-sized AV rack or a properly installed ceiling mount. Make sure you think about that before you get out the credit card.
