The Proxima 2300 is a good old-fashioned projector that is consistent in performance despite lacking the latest features in projector technology. This projector is only suitable for use in a small room setting, because it does not have the projection strength to produce clear images in more spacious environments.

Compared to modern projectors, the Proxima 2300 projector is quite burdensome for those who need to carry their projectors around. With an overall weight of about 18lbs, it is not exactly the thing you wish to carry in and out of meeting rooms or classrooms on a regular basis. Besides, this projector is also rather bulky in size, with dimensions of 6 x 13 x 18 inches, which makes it quite a hassle to carry, especially if you are traveling long distances.

One of the major shortcomings of the Proxima Projector 2300 is limited brightness. With just 45 ANSI lumens, you would reason that it can be quite straining on the eyes to sit through a lengthy presentation. However, the Proxima 2300 projector can produce rather clear images when placed closer to the display space, as it is meant to be for a throw distance of just 1.2 to 4.3 meters. From these distances, with varying angles of projection, the Proxima 2300 projector with screen can manage an image size that range between 0.9 to 3.2 meters, which is quite an achievement considering its restricted power of projection. Its contrast ratio of 20:1 works well with these specifications to provide sufficiently clear images for basic viewing.

Quite true to its tradition, the Proxima 2300 projector features manual standard lens, which has to be expertly adjusted to achieve the right focus. You can reason with the image quality through the 6.4” STN LCD display screen, which is characterized by a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels. The Proxima 2300 LCD projector offers you a display aspect ratio of 4:3 (VGA) which is most appropriate for the quality of presentation it is meant to achieve. One other limitation is that the Proxima 2300 does not support video connectivity, being only compatible with SDTV and personal computers.

The Proxima 2300 projector lamp is a 410W Halogen lamp which has a life comparable to many projector lamps in the market today. If the projector is subject to regular usage, you have to be prepared to replace the Proxima 2300 projector bulb once every few months, and such bulbs can be purchased in most electronic retailer stores. To keep your Proxima 2300 in tiptop condition, it is advisable to clean the lens and body of the projector from time to time.
