ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a projector having a light source, a display device to modulate light emitted from the light source, a lens device to project light emitted from the light source and modulated by the display device, wherein the lens device comprises a diaphragm mechanism, an image signal intensity detector to detect image signals input into the display device and to evaluate an intensity of the signals, a diaphragm mechanism drive control to drive the diaphragm mechanism so as to reduce the size of an aperture of the diaphragm mechanism when the image signal intensity detector ascertains that the intensity of the image signal is lower than a given level, and an image signal controller to increase the intensity of the image signal when the image signal intensity detector ascertains that the intensity of the image signal is lower than a given level.
