A projector has an illuminating optical system for irradiating white light, a color switching optical system for dividing the white light irradiated by the illuminating optical system into color lights in a time-division manner, a DMD(TM) for modulating the respective color lights in accordance with an image signal, a projection optical system for projecting the light beam modulated by the DMD, a light-composite optical system for getting the light beam not incident on the projection optical system to be incident again on the DMD and a device controller for controlling the operation of the projector, where the light beam irradiated by the DMD and not incident on the projection optical system is irradiated as a light beam of uniform illuminance distribution by the light-composite optical system and is again introduced on an illumination optical axis to be incident on the DMD, thus enhancing peak luminance of the projected image and achieving high contrast ratio.
