Basic calculation
Identify the required lens by calculating the throw ratio.
A throw ratio is the ratio of the throw distance to the screen width:
Throw distance
Throw ratio =
Screen width
1.
Use the formula above to obtain the required throw ratio.
2.
Match the throw ratio with a lens from the table below:
Throw ratios
0.77 : 1 fixed lens
0.96 - 1.43 : 1 zoom lens
1.16 : 1 fixed lens
1.45 - 1.74 : 1 zoom lens
1.74 - 2.17 : 1 zoom lens
2.17 - 2.90 : 1 zoom lens
2.90 - 4.34 : 1 zoom lens
4.34 - 6.76 : 1 zoom lens
3.
Ensure the required throw distance is within the range covered
by the lens.

The basic calculation on this page
does not take into consideration
DMD™ and image size, which could
affect the throw ratio. For a more
complex and realistic calculation,
see
section.
When calculating the throw ratio, be
sure to use identical measurement
units for both the throw distance and
the screen width.
