Hello, what is the range capability of this projector? Could it project 150 ft or so?

We use it in our sanctuary occasionally and it projects best (full daylight) at about 60 ft. The picture would be too zoomed out if we went further - larger than the wall screen. We use a 5000 lumen projector normally for 150 ft.

No. It shows very nicely from a distance of about 15 feet. It fills up a normal screen 10 x 10. I actually don't know what it would do if you had an auditorium sized screen.

Interesting question. I can't answer the max distance from the screen, but my projector is 14 feet from the screen ( 110 inch ) and it works great at that distance. I feel it could go back another 3-4 feet and the picture would still be as good.feel free to ask me any other questions you have.Thanks and good luck,Keith

I think it really depends on how close to the wall/screen you are mounting the projector. Mine is 16 feet from the front of the projector to the wall and easily covers every bit of my 10' 8" (diagonal) screen with excellent resolution. So from 12 feet you should be able to project a very large quality image.

Mine is 10 feet away and I also have a 150 inch screen. In settings there are adjustments you can make.

Yes, it would work well for this. The projector has to be a fixed distance from the screen which is probably about 4-5 feet to get to 120 inches, but should not be an issue since you are not mounting it. You can determine that with an online calculator. The Lumens are pretty high so should have pretty good visibility at dusk. Only other issue is it is not true HD (1080p) but still looks really good. I use it for my indoor Golf Simulator and it does the trick.

That really depends on the size or ( lumens ) projector you are using, they can very from 12 to 25 ft sorry I could not be of more help...

Hi Forest, as for distance as this projector has a zoom function, the range for a 100 inch screen is between 5'3" and 6'4". Not certain what to recommend re ceiling mount, I adapted my old Dell mount to suit. I find this site to be really useful when considering what to buy.... http://www.projectorcentral.com/BenQ-W770ST-projection-calculator-pro.htm

Picture quality is awesome. However- not sure about your setup, but a short throw doesn't make much sense for an outdoor projector. Also not sure about brightness for outdoors, since there tends to be a lot of light outside that you can't control. Probably safer to look elsewhere.

I think it depends on your projector. I was surprised that I needed to be fairly close, maybe 5 to 6ft. I'm very happy with the screen, it's big, but easy setup and breakdown. Hope this helps. :)

I do not know personally - have not done a range test. Samsung's specs claim 150 meters (about 300 feet). Actual distance capability would of course vary, depending upon other factors such as interference, obstacles in the propagation path, etc. sorry i don't have a better answer.

I actually set my projector about 8 feet from the screen that I have to do power point presentations on. I don't think that you will have a problem focusing from a shorter distance.

I have used mine up to 150 ft with no problem, I would highly recommend that you get the laser detector to go with it though. It gets hard to see the laser the farther you get but with the laser detector it is easy!

The projector at 10 ft would throw a very large display probably 110" the problem these projectors have with text is that they use a diamond pixel instead of a square pixel so the edges of text can be fuzzy. If you are using this in a presentation or business environment it will not be bright enough with any light of any magnitude. An open window will wash out colors and contrast. Go with the ml500 (same diamond pixel problem but brighter) or choose a laser / led hybrid with a different dlp chip. I'm not saying this isn't a good projector for its purpose (portability) but if text is your first consideration and portability comes in at a five or six in the list then this isn't the right one for you.

My screen size is 126 inches and the projector is 15ft away. The picture looks awesome!

I have used it at 7ft and at 15ft. The picture size at 7 feet is about 60 inches at 15 feet is 110 inches or so. I watched a boxing match at 110 and it looked great. The only downside to this projector (and most others) is that you need to have a fairly dark room, or only use it at night if your room is bright during the day. This was my 1st projector, but overall am very satisfied with it.

Recommended image size is between 80 and 100 inches however it can project up to 150 inches
