Pros:
|
Inexpensive,... small,... easy to use
|
|
Cons:
|
Reference photo must be small,... heats up very quickly
|
|
The projector works as advertised but heats up very quickly which can result in the scorching of your reference photo if you\'re not careful. You can get around this and the relatively small copy size (5\" x 5\"), by using photocopies of your reference material. You must also make sure to project at 90 degrees to the surface or it will distort the image. All in all,... for the price,... I find it very handy to have around.

defined small picture size; needs really dark room

I actually have the Jr, which uses a 3X3 photo. With the invention of scanners and computers, this is not a problem. I use it to get the very rough outline of the picture (which actually keeps me from trying to mask too much and put too much detail in without "brushing")...the only thing I don't like is that you have to be a minimum of like 3 feet away...Since I tend to work on 16X20 illustration board, getting the right sized-quality reference photo is difficult when I just want to blow it up a little bit...but going bigger for one mural worked out great (but limited work to outlining one item at a time)
