A projector with a high contrast ratio, such as 10,000:1, should be able to make dark parts of the picture seem darker. However, because a white screen will reflect light from the room and adjacent, lighter parts of the picture, blacks and dark colors will never look as deep as they would on a CRT or plasma HDTV.
Manufacturers measure contrast ratios differently, so trust your eyes instead of a projector's specifications. When you're at your local consumer electronics store to check out what projectors can do, look for bright, sharp images with good color and smooth motion.
