A panel of professional Hollywood video colorists, film finishers, TV reviewers, and video experts has been assembled to judge, evaluate, and vote on all picture quality attributes to determine which projector will be awarded this year’s “King of UST Projectors,” and “King of Long Throw Projectors.” Test patterns and real content will demonstrate elements of picture quality, including contrast, color fidelity, color saturation, and motion resolution.
