Positioning the Projector
If the projector isn’t already installed in the room you’re using, you’ll
probably want to place it on a table in front of the screen. This lets
you stand in the front of the room, face the audience, and remain
close enough to the equipment to be able to control it. Try to leave as
much space as possible between the projector and the screen to get a
good-size image.
Use the illustrations on page 18 to help you determine placement.
Image size increases with distance, but can vary depending on how
you position the zoom ring and whether you’ve adjusted the image
with other settings.
note
You can mount the projector
on the ceiling, or place it
behind a translucent screen
for rear projection. See
page 149 for details.
