Projector Positioning
The projected image becomes larger as the distance between the unit and screen increases.
The manual zoom allows the distance from the screen to be within a minimum and maximum
range. See the chart on the next page for details. The example below defines the screen height,
width, diagonal, etc.

Anamorphic Lens
Please note the HDP6000 is designed for use with 16:9 screens. They also have a
built in scaler for use with 2.35:1 screens. To display images at the highest
definition possible in 2.35:1 or cinemascope (most major movies are filmed in
2.35:1) an anamorphic lens is required. We recommend the Panamorph brand,
which has fixed, movable and motorized anamorphic lens for use with the
HDP6000.
