Gain and all that ...

[Mr Jason B]

Ok,still waiting on my Z2,and still havent sorted my screen yet cos I want to see what size Im gonna need.

My brother is a lighting technician and can get me some screen material at trade prices but will some screen material be more or less useless?Is it very important that it is a certain gain or just preferable?I love a bargain:clap: but if its not gonna give me a decent picture theres not much point.
Cheers

hmmm,well after scaning the other threads,it seems that 1 or 1.2 gain is reccomended,so Ill see if he can get that.Still not sure if a higher gain would be useless or just a bit inferior though:confused:

I have a 1.1 gain screen (da-lite model c high contrast matte white). Works well with my Panasonic PTAE200
