Evaluate for distance by image size

Obtaining a preferred projected image size

The distance from the projector lens to the screen, the zoom setting (if available), and the

video format each factors in the projected image size.

Projection dimensions

Refer to 

"Dimensions" on page 76

 for the center of lens dimensions of this projector before 

calculating the appropriate position.

        

*** "A" is based on maximum lens shift offset position 55%

 

LU9255

The screen aspect ratio is 16:10 and the projected picture is 16:10.

Note:

To optimize the projection quality, we suggest to project images in an area without grayscale.
