What does 'ultra-wide short throw' mean, and which venues benefit most?

Ultra-wide short throw enables massive images from extremely close distances, making it indispensable for art galleries, museums, intimate performance venues, and any space where ceiling clearance or projection distance is severely limited.

How does the LS1ST2's throw ratio of 0.77 to 0.97 enable installations that other lenses cannot?

This ultra-wide throw ratio allows projection from just a few feet away, perfect for galleries and museums where the projector must remain unobtrusive, and for venues with restricted overhead access.

Why is all-glass Japanese construction critical for extreme-angle projection?

All-glass optics eliminate chromatic aberration and colour flare that would be visible when projecting from extreme close-range angles, ensuring professional image quality even in challenging geometries.

Can museums and galleries use the LS1ST2 for long-term, high-uptime installations?

Yes, the robust all-glass construction and precision optics are engineered for intensive use in galleries and museums running continuous displays, with fast lens swaps available if maintenance is needed.

Is the quick-release design practical for frequent lens changes in flexible spaces?

Absolutely. Museums and galleries often reconfigure displays; the one-button release enables staff to swap lenses quickly without technical expertise or tools.

Are there any resolution options available for ultra-wide short-throw configurations?
