CHOOSING A LENS
Rev D October 2019
Full lens calculation example
Your screen is 4.5 m wide; you wish to place the projector
approximately 10 m from the screen. The source is 4:3.
1. Calculate TRC as follows:
1.6
1.33
TRC =
= 1.2
2. Calculate the throw ratio:
10
4.5 x 1.2
Throw ratio =
= 1.85
3. Find a match in the lens table.
The table shows that the matching lens is the 1.50 - 2.00 : 1
zoom lens.
4. Check whether the lens covers the required throw distance.
The focus range quoted for the 1.50 - 2.00 : 1 zoom lens is
2 - 12 m. The required distance of 10 m is within the range.
Notes
The lens table shown on this page
includes High Brightness lenses
only. For a full list, see Appendix A
at the end of this document.
