Digital Projectors

I am in the process of buying a projector to hook up to show my digital photos and movies/ videos. I see projectors selling from up in the £1000s, right down to the low £200s. (There is an Epson advertised in the latest Dabs brochure for £250 plus vat, and a Sony at £300 plus vat).

Can anyone give a rough spec (lumens, resolution, image contrast, etc)and pros and cons for purchasing a projector for home use? I’d be looking for something that would give the equivalent of the same clarity as the old Kodak Carousel projectors, with 35mm slides in a medium sized room. Why is there such a huge variation in price, for what doesn’t seem to be a large difference in spec?? I would like to go for something inexpensive, but will the picture quality be OK?
Any assistance and previous experience welcomed!
