LCD panels used in projectors – What are their limitations?

Hello all,


I'm new here and it's important I point out immediately that I am an absolute novice at this. I am trying to self-teach myself the basics by building things but it is a slow slow process. So please bear with me if my questions come across dumb.
I am currently learning how projectors work and decided to look at LCD projectors first as opposed to DLP (DMD) as they appeared to be far more complicated.
My question is this:
With the LCD panels being used in these projectors (3 of them), what are their limitations in terms of light? 
Are the panels adjusted based off the lumens output from the light in the projector or is it more a "one size fits all" scenario and no matter how much light you shine through the LCD panel, it will produce the same image, just much brighter or dimmer?



Thanks in advance!

Hard to know what the LCD panels are doing without pictures. My guess is that since there are three of them, they probably correspond to red, green and blue colors. You can check what color is going through each of them to see if this is right. This Wikipedia article has some more information but doesn't really explain it.
