There is a soft click as I hit the middle of each range, which is definitely a nice feature. Looks like the unit came with the lens shifted all the way down, so I moved it back up. And just when I’m looking for something to help tilt the projector back a little more, I remember the Vertical and Horizontal lens shift controls. Looks like all the threaded holes for the feet and mounting have brass inserts - nice. The rubber feet can extend out to what looks like about half the height of the projector, which gives me some flexibility in positioning the projector. Not a fair test of a projector, but just how capable is this thing? I have a wall here to test with (useful things, walls), and I’ve got an extra port on my computer - time to set things up. Okay, so it’s the middle of a sunny day, and I’m impatient. They even shaped the foam so it’s easy to reach under the sides instead of front/back.

But they have the styrofoam shell in four pieces, so you can take off the top bumpers and reach in to lift out the projector. Oh sweet! I was expecting the styrofoam to trap the projector in the box so you have to pull the whole thing out and get styro bits everywhere, or where you have to flip the box over to have the thing drop out along with any bits that found their way into the box during its journey. The accessories are partitioned off in a cardboard insert, with the user manual in the main compartment. Plenty of space, styrofoam casing, cardboard inserts, and one of those thin foam padding sheets around the projector itself making sure that nothing touches your new projector until you do.

You know how disappointing it can be when you order something and it arrives in a banged up box and the device itself looks like it’s been used as a Mad Max prop? Not here.

Okay, first off, Epson knows how to package their tech.

Tomorrow brings my new screen, but today- ahh today has brought this beautiful new projector, and I look forward to putting it through its paces before replacing my old unit for movie night. One impressive little projector I don’t usually do unboxings, but I have to admit that I’ve wanted to upgrade my projector for a few years now.
