At just a touch over three hundred dollars the ViewSonic PJD5123 SVGA projector seems like a steal to us. The DLP, 2700 lumens projector throws out a 800×600 res display with 3000:1 contrast. Of course the PJD5123 is not going to satisfy the HD home theatre enthusiast but if you’re after a cheap projector with reasonable features ViewSonic’s PJD5123 may just be the ideal model.
