I am between the PLANAR 7060 and the OPTOMA THEMESCENE HD80 as a first projector. Although the HD80 is a Full HD model and on paper it has much higher contrast reviews such as Planar 7060 Home Theater Projector Review - Overview and Planar PD7060 Projector Review - TV Reviews - TrustedReviews suggest that the planar is perhaps a better projector with a sharper image. Although no direct comparison is made the same reviewers argue that the optoma does not have a very sharp image. Still it is a Full HD model with a 10,000 Contrast ratio and a 6x wheel which indicates that fewer viewers will be subjected to the rainbow effect. The PLANAR is a Darkchip3 model while I don't know about the Optoma.
Has anyone any direct experience with any of these models? Which one should I go for?
One last thing. There is also the cheaper planar 7010. How would this one measure against the optoma?
