I was given the projector as a gift for my golf simulator, (Opti Shot 2.) Golf simulator's suggest an ultra short throw projector. Will this work?

No it will not work. It has quite normal shot. But except that it is a great projector.

yes and when they say short throw they mean it. excellent picture quality and unit. you need to be able to line the unit up exactly with the screen also.

I wouldn't know. Ours NEVER worked. When we sent it back for repair and /or a new one we never heard from the company again and never received a new projector. Very unhappy

If the projector really is a 3D projector, you must switch it into SBS mode. Any 3D projector capable of SBS mode should work fine.

If your projector is DLP-Link compatible, they should. Just check your owners manual.

Yes... It has a special adapter from the projector but ends in standard VGA cable... Hope it helps!

it has 2 hdmi imputs and one hdmi output so it should work. well sorta lol. this device doesn't give that great of a 3d effect. I returned mine. the colors are so messed up that it is distracting. And after wearing those glasses for a while it "stains" your vision so for 20 mins or more after wearing them, everywhere you look everything is colored with the same colors of the glasses. Check and see if your projector supports 3d. It might. You would be much better off going that route.

go to the viewsonic webpage and click on projector calculator. I used an Elite fixed screen dimensions of 71" x 41" and the throw distance was 10' 4"

I don't know for sure. The kit has lots of adaptors with few instructions. If your projector has mounting points in the case, it probably will work. If not, send it back.

Hi Jeff, just remember, a short throw is meant to give you optimal picture from a shorter distance. I have backed this projector up as far as 20 feet and recieved a phenomenal huge picture with great clarity! Also, as far as the angle, I have had mine on the floor and then just adjuated the keystone to the correct angle to get a straight picture. Hope this helps.

I am sorry you are having problems. I also ordered this projector, but promptly sent it back as I was dissatisfied with it. I recommend you do the same. I ordered a different model and am very happy with it. I use it for Keynote presentations as well as showing movies. I could never have done that with this model you have. I then ordered the Optoma W303, yes, more expensive, but IMHO well worth it. As they say, "you get what you pay for, if you don't pay much, you don't get much".

Again, it all depends on how big your screen is. I use mine at about 5ft and get about a 5ft diagonal picture. Remember this is a short throw projector.

It depends in how much space you have and if you use a regular projector you might get get in the way of the image and see your shadow on the screen..it could work but depends on your situation...shot throw can be mounted closer to the screen so you don't get in the way of the image

Yes, This will work. You should get the projector first, then install it. Adjust the picture to how big you want it, then buy the screen that fits your projected image. ( I have had my Mitsubishi a year and a half, and still love it )

yes. it will work for you. but please remember this is not a full hd projector; it is not clear enough for small fonts and delicate details.

I think so but I honestly don't know. I haven't used it for that and am not very tech savvy :) I would check by googling it. I LOVE the projector though!

Maybe not. I got a replacement bulb for earlier projector (PJD5123) and found it did not fit.By the time I found out, return date had expired. Not sure how to return it anyway. It came from China.Buyer Beware on foreign replacement bulbs. They may not fit. And the bulb may not be the problem. I had to send a projector back to ViewSonic after replacing another bulb. It turned out the bulb was not the problem at all. Good luck. Be careful. Try the bulb IMMEDIATELY after receipt and attempt to return if if does not work. GOOD LUCK.
