Hi im a total newbi when it comes to projecters but would first like to now if my room is big enough for one its 11ft in length 10ft in width and 8ft in height.
Hi there, should not be a problem. My room is 10ft by 14ft and i am planning to setup my HS50 across the end of the room (10ft length). I have calculated that with a 8.5ft throw (allowing for PJ body + cables) I should get a 80" screen on the wall (I am going to use a white emlusion wall to start with) - this is using 3/4 zoom. Just need it to arrive now. Cheers.
My soon-to-be replaced Panny AE100 fires across 10.5 feet of room onto a 230cm diag screen, maximum zoom . A lot of the current model PJs have very similar throw distance, so this is the sort of maximum size you can hope for also.
I think I probably beat everyone here on the short throw stakes... 7ft from the lens to the wall But it's an AE700 and has a massive zoom - I was intially worried about it being unable to focus but no problems whatsoever.
