We eventually purchased Epson 5010e which has wireless HDMI capability but is otherwise identical to the 5010. This review was written for the 5010e but applies just as well to the 5010, except the wireless HDMI part.After considerable amounts of research, I narrowed the choice down to two candidates (in my price range) - this Epson 5010 and Panasonic AE7000U. Went with the Epson because of the supposedly better black levels and the split screen feature.The projector arrives well packaged (of course). It is a big and hefty piece of equipment but not heavy as such. A single person of average strength can easily hang it upside down from the ceiling. The box does not come with a "base plate". So if you are looking at mounts that require a base plate, make sure to get one of those as well.The projector has 4 holes in the bottom aspect to secure a ceiling mount. Following this installation was as per the mount instructions.The projector has very very good picture quality out of the box without any tweaking at all. Black levels, like mentioned in online reviews, is great. We could not compare with Panasonic of course! The fan is very very quiet. So much so that in a quiet portion of the movie, and with projector almost right above our heads, we could not hear it at all. In effect, the projector disappears during movies, even the quiet ones. Thats exactly what you would expect from a home theater equipment. No bright LED lights, no hums, no noise. Nice!The projector has two HDMI inputs, one PC input and a set of analog inputs. There is no USB port on this device. If you connect one player to HDMI and another to component input, you can watch the pictures side by side (split screen). You will have to figure out how to take care of audio yourself of course. In our setup, the Blu-ray player is hooked up (via an AV receiver) to the HDMI input and gets to use the main speakers. The cable box is hooked up directly to the projector by component and to the AV receiver by HDMI. In this way, split screen is possible with Blu-ray audio through main speakers and cable box audio through headphones. Panasonic does not have this feature. Is that important? Depends on whether you need the split screen function!The lens is mounted in the center which makes alignment with the screen quite easy. Panasonic's lens is to one side. Does that make aligning more difficult? No idea! The image can be moved nearly 100% up or down vertically and 50% left or right horizontally. That makes setup very easy. You first put the projector up and make sure its square with the screen and then move the image only to align with the screen.Just about the only con is the fact that lens movement and zoom functions are not motorized. That means, you have manually turn the dials which moves and jiggles the projector. Also, precisely focusing the PJ requires two people - one to stand close to the screen and the other to turn the focus dial. You could of course do it alone and run back and forth! Thankfully, once all set, you don't have to bother with this again.3D performance is awesome. There are no glasses supplied. I would recommend the MonsterVision Max 3D Eyewear System with Active Sync? - Glasses & Transmitterer Kit for Active 3D glasses. These work very well, while the NXG glasses don't work at all. You will likely read all sorts of things online about auto-iris and how Epson disables auto-iris in 3D mode. Bottom line is, you will not notice a difference. The 3D brightness is very good and picture quality remains superb.Overall, highly recommended projector. If you've been looking for a good 3D projector which is not outrageously expensive, your search just ended.

By Engineer in Silicon Valley
This projector has an excellent feature set:(Lens shift, motorized pixel alignment that can be adjusted in the menu, Automatic lens cap, affordable replacement lamp etc.)Image quality is top-notch in both 3D and 2D mode. Black level is unbelievably good, as good as many DLPs! Cross talk is almost non-existent. In movie viewing I couldn't find any cross talk. To measure the cross talk I had to manually feed in super-high contrast test-images (full black vertical bar on full white background and full white vertical bar on full black background) to see cross-talk, keep in mind with that kind of test image, even DLP and RealD cinemas will show cross-talk. Brightness in 3D is sufficient, which is an astounding achievement at this price level. Brightness in 2D is excellent, they rate it at 2400lumen and it does feel 3x as bright as my 1000lumen old projector (subjective estimate, not a scientific measurement).After viewing a few movies I was really impressed with the color and contrast. Coupled with the Panasonic Bluray BDT210, the projector automatically enables 12-bit deep color, rendering an image that reminds me of my slide film projector, an achievement previously thought to be almost impossible by many film photographers like me.For movie viewing, this projector is PERFECT! I would recommend it without any reservations.The only possible minor flaw of this projector is its delay (~0.08 Second according to some forum posts) which may affect some action games, but that doesn't affect movie viewing at all, which is the main purpose why I bought this projector.

Just received the projector on friday in time for the super bowl. It was so easy to set up and required very little tweaking. The picture quality is amazing, throughly enjoy watching.Had bought the 8350, which was also excellent but wanted the 3D capability for our home theater. Very happy with Epson so far.
