Wide
Input signals will be
projected at the same
height as the projector's
panel resolution. At this
time, the image
enlargement ratio will be
smaller near the middle of
the images but become
larger towards the left and
right edges of the images.
This is useful for when 4:3
images are projected onto a wide
screen. Because there is almost
no distortion due to enlargement
in the middle of the images, the
images appear close to what they
would be at their original size.
And because both ends of the
images are enlarged, movement
at the edges of the images
appears faster and gives an
impression of greater speed,
making it ideal for viewing
sporting events.
* "Wide" cannot be selected if
keystone correction has been
carried out.
