Lens hot spot: The clear winner here was the Curtain, and no hot spot could be seen even with the projector at eye level. The opaque shower curtain reduced the brightness a little more that I liked, so a slight advantage goes to the Bed sheet here.Ĭolor: The bed sheet produced better colors ,but again, sometimes to bright. Some of the lighter colors became washed out. Here are my comparisons for all its worth īrightness: The Bed Sheet was much brighter than the Shower Curtain, but almost too bright. I have now experimented with two inexpensive options white opaque shower curtain, bed sheet ( 500 thread count). I have been in search of a good rear projection screen that wont break the bank but yet has a good enough quality that I can live with.
