Re: Panasonic PT-AE3000 in a 12foot room

Hi Mr Gothic

Our demo room has the PTAE3000 and is about the same throw as yours. I would say the largest comfortable screen would be the about 92" wide with a 235:1 ratio. For the standard 16:9 this would be around the 80" diagonal mark on the same screen.

Regards. Shane.

Re: Panasonic PT-AE3000 in a 12foot room

My room is 11ft front to back and 16ft wide.

We just manage to get a 92" screen in 16:9 ratio. We have no problems getting the AE3000 to fill the screen or have any problems with the screen appearing too large for the viewing distance.

This also gives a nice bright image even in Eco mode
