My hope with the Z5 was that I'd stumbled on a true budget gem; an aging but good mid-range LCD projector made irresistible by having its price reduced to bargain bucket levels. And actually the Z5 gets frustratingly close to living up to that hope, showing signs of genuine quality that you seldom get on projectors that have been built from the ground up to hit a £700 or lower price tag. In the end, though, the inconsistency of the Z5's brightness/contrast balance distracted me just that bit too much for comfort.
