Ok back again to finish this as
@BMXTRIX correctly pointed out lens shift is not necessary in my room BUT it's nice to have the option.
In fact this is one of my biggest reasons to go with Epson the bang for the buck
Let's look at what you get
a high-quality, 15-element glass lens.
automated lens memory to allow constant image height display of multiple aspect ratio sources on 2.4:1 screens without an external anamorphic lens--a rare feature on home theater projectors in this price range
the projector offers a long zoom ratio of 2.1:1 as well as extensive horizontal and vertical lens shift to expand placement options. The powered lens allows remote control of zoom, focus, and lens shift, so image adjustments are easy even when the 4050 is ceiling-mounted.
It arrives with a ceiling mount and extra lamp as part of its cost and is covered by Epson's 3-year warranty for the projector and 90 days for the lamp.
It's faux 4k just e shift but it looks great and when I was watching images in 4k on YouTube different demo videos it looks stunning.
Blacks are great
Colors pop
Detail and clarity is excellent
Contrast is great
Can it hold that detail with a lot going on like a movie? Not as much but still very very good blows my older 1080p out of the water
Is it best in class? No Is it awesome for the price especially what I got it for on sale for bedroom use? You better believe it.
