12 Positioning your projector
Obtaining a preferred projected image size
The distance from the projector lens to the screen, the zoom setting, and the video format each factors
in the projected image size.
Projection dimensions
• The screen aspect ratio is 16:9 and the
projected picture is in a 16:9 aspect ratio
For example, if you are using a 120-inch screen, the recommended projection distance is 4500 mm.
If your measured projection distance is 520 cm, the closest match in the
column is 5250 mm. Looking across this row shows that a 140'' (about 3.6 m) screen is required.

• To optimize your projection quality, we suggest doing the projection by following the values in the non-gray cells.
The values in the gray cells are for reference only.
• All measurements are approximate and may vary from the actual sizes.
BenQ recommends that if you intend to permanently install the projector, you should physically test the
projection size and distance using the actual projector in situ before you permanently install it, so as to make
allowance for this projector's optical characteristics. This will help you determine the exact mounting position so
that it best suits your installation location.
