How to Select A Projection Screen
 $$$ How much you should spend on your screen? We recommend spending around 15-30% of your projector
cost on the type of projection screen that would be the most suitable in matching the quality-to-cost ratio with your
projector. Fortunately for the frugal consumer, recent advances in the projection industry have resulted in high
quality projectors flooding the market at highly competitive pricing.
 What type of screen is suitable for your projection environment?
• Wall/Ceiling Screen
* Manual pull down Screens are the typical entry level product. They are simple, reliable and highly
affordable. They present a flat projection surface and do not include costlier extra features used in the
electric screens.
* Fixed Frame Screen: is for the dedicated home theater room. Most high-end professional installations
prefer using this product line over the retractable projection surfaces. Our diagonal sizes range from
84" to 200" for the same larger than life experience you would encounter at a movie theater.
* Electric Screens: are ideal for use with a concealed projection system allowing your room to be used
for other purposes as would be seen in a conference room, classroom or family room. The added
aesthetics of a large drop-down projection screen enhances the "Wow" factor in your presentation.
Our product comes fully assembled with all of the IR&RF remote controls and a 5-12V trigger included.
The diagonal measurements for our in-stock electric screens range from 75" to 400" surfaces.
• Portable Screen
* Tripod Screen: is the most affordable entry level portable presentation screen. These are ideal for
portable classroom, church congregation and large group home theater presentations.
* EZ-Cinema: Floor Pull Up Screen uses a simple telescoping support and its ability to be quickly set
up and taken down makes it an indispensable centerpiece to any traveling presentation. In addition
to its popularity with traveling speakers, it is equally sought after as a component for a "Home Theater
in a Box" for smaller living spaces such as dorm rooms and apartments.

How to Select a Projection Screen (continued)
* EZ Cinema Plus: Floor Pull Up Screen, has all of the virtues of the EZ Cinema with the addition of
one crucial element. Its unique "Scissor Back" self-standing spring support allows the end user to pull
up the screen to its desired level and leave it there without making any additional adjustments. Now
a large screen surface can be deployed in the same time it takes to open an umbrella.
* Kestrel Series: Is our new floor electric screen. It combines the quality of our premium grade electric
screens with the portablilty of our floor pull-up series.
* QuickFold: Is a commercial grade portable fixed-frame screen which is ideal for large traveling
presentations and tradeshows. Its durable lightweight design and option of front or rear projection
material has made it a favorite in the Commercial AV circles as well as for outdoor film screenings and
DJ events. It is the largest of our portable screens with diagonal surface sizes ranging from 72" to 200".
 What is the Ratio?
* 1:1 - Best for those using OHP (Overhead Projector) educational/training presentations.
* 4:3 (NTSC) - Standard TV and PC format. This is a popular format in conference rooms and training
facilities.
* 16:9 (HDTV) - Best for the home theater environment with an HDTV Home Cinema Projector.
* 2.35:1- Widescreen Cinemascope format which is perfect with the new anamorphic lenses on the
market today.

How to select the right screen material
Screen material is made in a variety of shades and textures to accommodate the output qualities for all of the various
DLP and LCD projectors on the market today.
The idea is to create the right level of color reproduction while maintaining black level contrast.
Since the projectors currently have various levels of light output and resolution, it is necessary to have a variety of
materials that will be compatible with the different performance levels of screens currently on the market. Current
improvements in projector technology have definitely helped simplify the process of screen material selection.
Our knowledgeable staff at Elite Screens can help you find the compatible screen material for your projection needs.
* MaxWhite (Matte White): It is the most versatile and uniform screen surface for front projection and has
perfect diffusion for wide viewing distribution. This material is best used when ambient light is controlled to
enable unlimited viewing angles with perfect uniformity while giving precise definition and color
reproduction. Screen Surface is washable with mild soap and water, flame retardant and mildew resistant.
* CineWhite (Tension White): Provides broad light dispersion with spectral uniformity to give a panoramic
viewing angle and true color rendition. This is a tension surface that is best used when ambient light is
moderately controlled. Tension White qualities are equal to the Matte White Screen material but provides a
flatter profile for superior image quality and color reproduction. Screen surface is washable with mild soap
and water.
* PowerGain (High Gain white): The Tension High Gain screen material is designed for DLP and LCD home
cinema projectors. This tension surface is the best choice when used with a High Definition/Low Output
Video source and where ambient light is moderately controlled. Elite Tension High Gain is perfect for use in
the home theater environment. Screen surface is washable with mild soap and water.
Elite CineTension and EZ Frame Screen material has black backing on the reverse side to eliminate light penetration
that will negatively affect the picture quality.
As one of many standard features, our screen has a four sided black masking border to enhance your projection
display area.
