A Mercedes of Digital Projectors by L. S. Couch on amazon.com Jul 2, 2012
I was replacing an older projector used in a business environment. The ViewSonic Pro8200 offered a lot of features that I wanted -- mostly the HD/1080p level of projection, plus good sound capability. In all areas (except sound volume) this projector ...

Top of the Line by Westman on bhphotovideo.com Dec 6, 2011
So far I find it very portable I've took it on a road trip across the country. The picture quality is amazing does full HD with ease. Sports are perfect no lag and even looks great in well lit rooms but best quality would be in the dark. The fan heat ...

Moldy projector by Xourque on newegg.com Nov 8, 2011
It's a great projector. I'm really not happy with NewEgg for doing this twice. What a waste of our time when we've been needing this projector for business purposes for over two weeks now. This is the first time I've ever had problems with NewEgg, and am not very happy.
 
Defective by J. Jose on amazon.com Mar 21, 2012
As soon as I installed this projector, I had problems with the Menu items being disabled. So when I called Viewsonic Technical support, he told there is a problem with the motherboard and I should send it to them for repair, which meant that I would have ...
 
Viewsonic has a ways to go by N/A on newegg.com Jun 23, 2011
I contacted view sonic and got it RMA, they made ME pay for shipping. Then they said that sense it broke within the first year I could get a free replacement, but they didn't have any in stock so I had to do without. Apparently it takes them 14 days ...

Amazon.com: Customer Reviews: ViewSonic PRO8200 1080p DLP Home Theatre Projector
After two months of use, I feel I did not make a good choice...The good things of the Pro 8200 you read from the manufacturer are true and plenty to consider, but the extremely annoying horizontal juddering or shaking effect must also be considered...Both sites gave it a positive review and said that it was a good buy...

Two HDMI ports...Native 1080p resolution...Zoom lens (1.5x)...Suitably bright...Works well as a data projector....No 3D support...Particularly noticeable rainbow effect, with light areas breaking up into primary colors....Although billed as a home theater projector, with 1080p native resolution and two HDMI ports, the ViewSonic Pro8200 succeeds better as a data projector...The ViewSonic Pro8200 ($900 street) harkens back to the days when there wasn't much difference...

ViewSonic Pro8200 review | from TechRadar's expert reviews of Projectors
Excellent colour fidelity > good connectivity > bright enough for a partially lit room > modest footprint...Limited motion resolution > noisy runner...The latest entrant in the increasingly crowded budget 1080p projector market, the ViewSonic Pro8200 has an impressive resumé...The vented sides that drag air across the light engine may give the Pro8200 a little bit of a 'fan heater' aesthetic, but overall it's a rather nice looking and well-built...
