Re: DLP vs LCD
David I don't agree that you have to spend £5k to eliminate it.I spent £495 on my Planar 7010 projector and very rarely see rainbow.

I have seen a Optoma HD70 and HD65 which also only gave of mild RBE and these are cheap <£600 pj's.

Slow speed and the number/arrangement of colours on the segment wheel seem to determine how much you will see RBE.

You either see rainbows or you don't and some that do see them frequently and can cause nausea.Some only see occasional flashes as I did initially but after watching a few movies my eyes/brain have become accustomed to RBE and now see maybe a couple of flashes during a 2 hr movie.
