I need a 1080p projector or a Realis for an art show in Boston on November 1 - XGA simply doesn't cut it for displaying photography seriously... I can only find two rental offers online for any sort of high resolution projector, one of which is probably a Realis (of unspecified model) for $349 per day - it's listed as 1400x1050, which is generally one of the Canons. The other one had no price, but when I saw what it was (a Christie 12,000 lumen digital cinema projector), I didn't bother to inquire further - that simply HAS to be massively expensive to rent, since it's a $20,000+ machine! Unless it's one of the very high-end models, the Realis also strikes me as very expensive - I was hoping to pay more like $150-$200 per day than $349 (since most of these projectors only cost $2000-$3000). Does anyone know a good source to rent one of these, either in the Boston area, or that will deliver there?

I'd be more use in Boston UK than Mass but I've rented plenty of projectors and $349 sounds ott. Where are you trying? Sound and lighting companies hold high end stuff (at least over here). Look up theatre suppliers in the area.
