It all happens while the lens is warming up or cooling down so it never affects the power up or down time
Good:*Black is black great better than 3600e*Wireless HDMI great works as expected a must have for my settings*Lens lid close automatically good*Silence operation*Electronic shift lens nice to
So far so good, great picture quality and lens adjust is magic not having to move entire device for adjustment
Pros:- Has an automatic open and close lens lid shutter that activates to protect the lenses from any dust and scratches.- Quite as it could be, very good especially with the power it holds.- Setup is simple and easy.- Wireless HDMI works at
I cleaned the lens once initially and noticed that the center 2” or so of it is almost flat while the edges taper off in a curvature as normally expected

It's a sharper, more beautiful image, and no matter how much I adjusted the settings on this Epson I could not get it to look as good
Output great image with high color accuracy, but unfortunately the Epson didn't put a full speed 18gb HDMI chip inside, so you won't get 4K HDR 10bit at 60fps
Furthermore, it will display 1080p contents with a truly great image quality
Colors in HDR are much more vibrant, though to offset the darker image in HDR mode I have to change to Cinema Bright mode, and I often choose to switch from HDR2 to HDR1 mode
Sony produce a greatly darkened image on the screen.

it's hard to find fault in the 5040, with it's incredible contrast and truly black blacks
Contrast RatioThe 5040 has truly dramatic Ultra Black levels, utilizing an improved iris design that delivers up to a 1,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio.
ConclusionThe 5040's 4K pixel shifting, combined with increased brightness, and a vastly improved contrast ratio, make this projector well worth the upgrade.
The picture is incredibly bright, with excellent contrast
The new optoma uhd 60 projector is native 4k and simarly priced, but has significantly weaker contrast and black level

Get a good theater sound sytem and a 4K player (at this point only Samsung and Phillips are available - and the Samsung is better) a good screen can be had for $300.00 or
beautiful picture paired with an acoustically transparent screen from Silver ticket
The screen was so vibrant, that it looks like they were closed!I haven't had this projector for 24 hours yet, but will update my review as I find out cool new things.
I have it projecting onto a 140 inch Seymour Enlightor 4K acoustically transparent screen
Above 120" screen size, most viewers will appreciate the increased sharpness of UHD content, but the screen will be dim enough that HDR content will either look washed out, or you'll have to calibrate the projector to maximize light output at the expense of color accuracy

Really disappointed and I would have liked Epson to send a newer model where the issues are fixed.....after all I have the extended warranty.
In all my research into 4k-capable projectors, the Epson 5040ub and the JVC DLA-RS400U stood out in the sub-$5000 range
Epson is garbage
case you are wondering I upgraded from my still working great Epson
I returned the Epson 4000 because the poor black levels in dark scenes distracted me enough to pay more for the “ultra black” levels available in the Epson 5040

works but for as much money as this thing cost it MUST work as advertised!Well, I will call epson Monday and see if they will try again...
Picture quality is the most amazing thing I have ever seen
I love this thing, but I also learned my lesson the first time and picked up the 4 year Square Trade warranty.
the thing is a monster, electric shifting, screen size moving up and down and left to right makes a big difference in my install to an existing location 11 feet off the ground.
I did a lot of research and read many reviews in a few of them i found reviewers trying to find negative things to say about the awesomeness of this

FAN NOISE-Minimally audible fan noise on medium setting
The fan seemed a bit loud to me when I was testing the projector initially on the table top, but after having installed it on the ceiling, I hardly notice the fan noise at all
If I use the "Native" resolution, the 1080p contents are scaled up to match the 4k resolution and the image is not as good as with the Epson 2040 which has a native resolution of 1080p and does not do any scaling
As soon as I switch to HDMI1, loud cranking fan noise starts
The UBP –x800 player is also highly recommended as it is quick and easy to use with some great features

Update: I have encountered the power issue others have posted about
First unit had power issues and died on me
we lost $2500 buying this projector because it has a POWER issue and its a KNOWN issue
