Like all Ultra short projectors; to get a perfect image requires a completely flat surface. As most walls are not entirely flat, to avoid slight distortion to the top of the picture, you may need to install a screen onto your projection surface for a perfect image. If this is not possible, they suggest that for non-flat walls you might be better to use a short throw projector which can throw a 100" image from just over 1m".
Ultra short throw
With an ultra-short throw lens, you can project an impressive 100" image from just30cm away away from a flat surface or screen. This allows you to place the projector closer to the wall and removes the need for lengthy cables, simplifies setup and reduces installation time.
