Okay, so I know a few people thought I was crazy when I told them I took a DLP projector with a broken color wheel and turned it into a greyscale projector. Here's why. Do you see the words on the back wall? They're coming from that greyscale DLP projector. Not only that but do you see all of the stars (much more visible in real life) that extend well up onto the ceiling? All coming from that projector. The projected image is nearly 40 feet wide. The extra brightness not having the color wheel gives us makes this possible. Is it BRIGHT? Nah. But it's competitive with the rest of our stage lighting. As a greyscale unit, it's purpose is NOT to show bright, sharp, crisp video. It obviously can't do that anymore anyways (unless you like pre-1930's movies). It's to be a fun lighting instrument to play with. And it does that extremely well:
