Hi Calzone, It is hard to predict how bright the display will be based on your description. Generally, Home Cinema models are designed for a dim, home theater-type of environment. The Home Cinema 760HD has 3,300 lumens of color and white brightness, so it may not be suitable for outdoor viewing. Another factor to keep in mind is the distance the projector is from the viewing surface. Apparent brightness is lower if the projector is further away from the screen. Regards, Mark - The Epson Team.
