I am wanting to put a projector in the front window of my photography studio to play slideshows when I leave at night. Is there a certain type of screen that will let me shoot through it so I can have the projector inside and the screen can pull down right infront of the window? If so is there a projector that will reverse the image as well? THANKS!!

You'll want to look for a rear projection screen, most manufacturers offer the option.
Pretty much all but the basic projectors have options to reverse the image to work correctly on a rear projection screen.
It should be easy for you to take care of everything.

I have a used Yamaha projector that I'm selling... $8,000 new, I'd sell it for dirt cheap. If you're interested, we could take this into the pawn shop and make it official.

Sure, no worries! For projection screens, I recommend following the link on the top of the page for Carada screens. I think all of the major manufacturers make screens capable of rear projection. CHRIS

yeah... most PJs will have an option to rear project.
now what material to use for this is another question...
anyone ?Comment

The technical composition of the material... I have no idea. But if you ask screen manufacturers, they'll have products just for what you need!
(are people looking to DIY for rear-projection? That could be tough) CHRIS

I know people have used a sheet of plexi and sanded one side. Might be good enough for his application. There are some other methods....projecting through a white sheet.Comment

I'm not sure really.. I know its supposed to look like etched glass afterwards. If you have access to a low powered sand blaster it would work.Comment

Ok first let me apologize up-front for my lack of knowledge on front projectors.
What little video knowledge I have is on rptv. I am trying to find out if it is even feasible for me to get a projector. The way my room is set up my viewing distance form the screen would be limited to 11-12 feet... -
Hi there, I am looking into setting up a projection screen in my bar. The space has a fair amount of ambient light but the walls, floors, and ceilings will be black. I am on a budget but at the same time don't want to waste my money on an embarrassing setup.

Speaking of Elements, the 3rd movie I watched "OOB" out of box, was drum role..... Blu Ray 5th Element. It's always a crowd pleaser, and we know it's a pretty good older production, that holds its own as a nice watch on better TVs, be they LCD, flat panel, old Plasma 1080P, or DLP or LASER,...
