With its sub-£2k price point in mind, it's hard to fault the TW3800. But I guess it's incumbent on me to try, right?!
So: I guess it might have been nice if Epson could have stretched to some sort of frame interpolation system like that sported by Panasonic's £2,150 PT-AE3000 - but then motion still looks good on the TW3800, and you don't have to worry about processing artefacts.
The PT-AE3000 also has that rather nifty lens aspect ratio shifting feature that this Epson does not, and it can deliver slightly deeper black levels as well as slightly more assistance to colour tweakers. But then as well as being the best part of £300 cheaper, the TW3800, for my money, marginally outperforms the PT-AE3000 on colour and shadow detailing. And any sub-£2k projector that can outperform the PT-AE3000 in any area simply has to be worth tracking down.
