    This statement on their site worries me:

    "*Some of the projection surfaces on the photos have been slightly enhanced digitally due to the camera's flash rendering the image on screen unviewable at the time the photo was taken."

    Has anyone actually seen one of these working in the flesh (so to speak)?

    Dunno about quality, but I ran and hid when I saw the website
    I think they look horendous... just MHO of course

    Do not do under any circumstances do what they appear to have done in the last gallery picture.... it WILL pull two supports over - obvious really!
    So no putting it between two tripods unless you have a cross bar between them.
    The truss in the pic may be anchored to the horizontal bit behind, but it wasn't clear in the pic.

    Personally I prefer conventional square (or rectangle) format screens.

    Well as they cost about £400 I think I can safely say that is out of my price range anyway.

    The nightclubs i work in have electric projector screens and they project visuals, videos & live camera images onto them. I have never seen gobos been projected onto a projector screen!

    I like the prinicipal of this screen but the shape of it just puts me off as I think it looks too tacky and Argos like.
