Hi folks just wondered what projectors my fellow UK members recommend? I want to avoid shipping tax charges so trying to avoid imports.
Thanks

The best projector is the one with the highest (native) resolution and the most light and probably made by either Acer, BenQ or Sony, it will cost between 50 quid and 5000, it will fit in your pocket or it will hang permanently form your ceiling taking up a half square yard in space and looking pretty damn ugly.
You need to be more specific, the best projector for me isn't necessarily the best projector for you, I may wan't to project an image about A3 in the dark, you may wan't full home cinema functionality with the ability to view the entire contents of your phone, PC and other hard wireless, so you need to tell us exactly what you wan to do with it and how big, some need to be used in almost pitch black dark room and some can be seen in normal day light conditions, it's all about what you want specifically, most here who have projectors have different ones and experience from previous discussions is each and everyone already has the best simply because it was the best personal choice for them.
I've three projectors in the past and hated them all because I was too lazy to do the legwork.
Since you are in the UK why not pop round to Dixons, Comet or Office world, or even some of the bigger photographic/camera suppliers and make them show you what they all do? that' the easiest way to see what suits your needs specifically, I mentioned native resolution which is the quality the project at, this means that your projector should be 1080p minimum for the best image, there projectors which have a native resolution of 240 X 320 which project 1080 but all they convert the high quality image to a poorer quality showing horizontal lines through your projected image, the number of ansi lumen is also important if you want to project in normal room lighting, the higher the number the brighter the projected image
Base your search on the assumption that you won't get anything decent under 400 quid which might get you a bottom of the range Phillips with reasonable quality, but I personally would never buy another projector without a demo.
I've checked out your drawing and you have amazing skills, which makes me wonder if you actually need a projector at all
Thank you for your detailed response and kind words Madbrush I clearly need to do a little more research in this area, I wasn't aware the options were so vast to be honest, maybe I'm a little too eager to complete my studio now that I have ordered my airbrush rig
I can't believe I'm the only person to respond to this so far, so I think they've all seen your work and may be a tad intimidated,
