Christopher Milnes, managing director of Massteknik UK, commented, “We are delighted with the new Diamond Vision system. It has performed extremely well at today’s event. Diamond Vision has an excellent reputation for quality and reliability, and the OD12 in particular is a very versatile screen, which is obviously an important quality to have in a rental system.” Commenting on their choice of Diamond Vision, Christopher continued, “As well as it’s excellent image quality and contrast, we were especially impressed with Diamond Vision’s long-term performance: Being a tried and tested technology, we can have a great deal of confidence that screen uniformity and light output will remain good over a long period of time. A system like this is a significant investment, so build quality and longevity are very important factors in our ability to generate a return on that investment.”
