Full lens calculation example
Your screen is 4.5 m wide; you wish to place the projector
approximately 11 m from the screen. You use a WUXGA
projector; the source is 4:3.
1. Calculate TRC as follows:
1.6
1.33
TRC =
= 1.2
2. Calculate the throw ratio:
11
4.5 x 1.2
Throw ratio =
= 2.04
3. Find a match in the lens table.
The table shows that the lenses matching a throw ratio
of 2.44 are:
• the 1.87 - 2.56 : 1 zoom lens
• the 1.50 - 2.17 : 1 zoom lens
• the 1.72 - 2.71 : 1 zoom lens
4. Check whether the lens covers the required throw
distance.
The range quoted for the 1.87 - 2.56 : 1 zoom lens is
4 m - 24 m. The required distance of 11 m is within the
range.
The other two lenses have a range of 5 m - 25 m, also
within the range.
