Hi all,
I am sure many of you have read my posts by now and you are probably aware that I am planning for my first PJ, It will either be the Z2 or the AE500 and at present it is pointing to the Z2 because of throw distance.
The wife wants the PJ to be as out of sight as possible and the AE500 will give me my screen size at 10'4" which puts it right above and in front of the sofa, the Z2 can be a ft further back whcih is beter.
Then I realised that with the Z2 lens shift the PJ may not even need to be above the sofa, it could actually be offset to the right but my question is by how much.
Basicly, i need to know how much I can move the Z2 to the left or right yet still keep the picture in the same place using the lens shift. If it makes a difference, I am looking at a 92" diag screen (DRH Slimline) , with the PJ sat 11ft 4" from it and my seating about 12Ft from the screen.... I may be tempted to go for the 104" diag screen, the PJ and seating will stay at the same distance, will that cause bad picture issues........
Cheers all, the lens shift may well keep the wife happy.....
