LENS INSTALLATION GUIDE

The Paladin and Phoenix lens systems represent the latest generation in patented
anamorphic optical solutions to engage the anamorphic modes available in all popular
home theater projectors for a dramatic increase in the clarity, detail and brightness of
UltraWide movies. For general information about how these anamorphic lenses work,
please refer to the Lens Options section of www.panamorph.com.

the lens bracket) when a projector is vertically positioned at or below the center of the
projection screen, OR, used inverted (hanging from the lens bracket) when a projector
is vertically positioned at or above the center of the screen. The projector should be
horizontally positioned at the center of the screen with little or no horizontal lens shift.
Projector distance to screen and maximum screen size. Please check with the
Panamorph Screen Calculator at
www.panamorph.com

distance divided by UltraWide screen width) smaller than the recommended ratio of
1.6:1 will cause increasingly greater distortion and, with the Phoenix, may cause edge
color fringing beyond the capability of convergence correction in most projectors. Throw
