10. Scheimpflug
10.1 Scheimp fl ug introduction
What is Scheimp fl ug?
The lens holder has to be adjusted so that the “sharp focus plane” of the projected image falls together with the plane of the screen
(Fp1
→ Fp2). This is achieved by changing the distance between the DMD plane and the lens plane (Lp1 → Lp2). The closer the lens
plane comes to the DMD plane the further the sharp focus plane will be. It can occur that you won’t be able to get a complete focused
image on the screen due to a tilt (or swing) of the lens plane with respect to the DMD plane. This is also known as Sheimp
fl ug’s law.
To solve this the lens plane must be placed parallel with the DMD plane. This can be achieved by turning the lens holder to remove
the tilt (or swing) between lens plane and DMD plane (Lp3
→ Lp4).

fl ug principle
Scheimp fl ug principle
The "plane of sharp focus" can be changed so that any plane can be brought into sharp focus. When the DMD plane
and lens plane are parallel, the plane of sharp focus will also be parallel to these two planes. If, however, the lens
plane is tilted with respect to the DMD plane, the plane of sharp focus will also be tilted according to geometrical and
optical properties. The DMD plane, the principal lens plane and the sharp focus plane will intersect in a line below the
projector for downward lens tilt.
Scheimp fl ug adjustment points
The front plate of the Lens holder is equipped with four bronze (Scheimp fl ug) nuts and four set screws with lock nut. These screws
and nuts are used for Scheimp fl ug adjustment.
