FAQ
How close can the projector be to the screen with the LS1ST4?
The LS1ST4 achieves an XGA throw ratio of 0.392, meaning the projector can be placed at a fraction of the distance required by standard lenses. This enables large-format projection in venues where ceiling clearance or room depth is limited.
Does the UST lens support motorized adjustments?
Yes. The LS1ST4 features motorized lens shift, focus, and zoom, allowing precise image alignment from a control interface without physically moving the projector — essential for installations in high-ceiling or hard-to-reach mounting positions.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is ultra-short-throw projection, and where is it most valuable?
Ultra-short-throw (UST) projection enables very large images from just a few inches away, making it essential for museums, galleries, intimate performance venues, and spaces with minimal overhead clearance.
How does the 0.392 throw ratio of the LS1ST4 enable unique venue designs?
At 0.392, the LS1ST4 allows mounting just inches from the screen, freeing up ceiling space and enabling creative installations in galleries, theaters, and venues with architectural constraints.
What advantage does motorized lens shift provide in confined projection spaces?
Motorized shift allows fine-tuning of image position without moving the projector, essential when mounting space is extremely limited and precise centering is critical for aesthetic presentation.
Is the LS1ST4 suitable for permanent gallery and museum installations?
Yes, UST projection is particularly valued in galleries and museums for minimalist aesthetics, and the motorized controls and quick-release simplify both installation and future maintenance.
How does the quick-release mechanism benefit venues with multiple displays or rotating exhibits?
The one-button release allows galleries and museums to swap UST lenses between projectors or replace the lens quickly for servicing, minimizing downtime during exhibit changes.
Can the LS1ST4 handle the ambient light conditions typical in museums and galleries?
The LS1ST4 is an optical lens; brightness depends on the connected BenQ projector's lumen rating. Procure.ae can advise on pairing the LS1ST4 with suitable high-lumen projectors for well-lit gallery spaces.
