Panasonic ET-ELU20 Ultra Short Throw Lens

Expanding Choice for Immersive Spatial Performance

Panasonic simplified ultra-short-throw lens and projector installation with innovative zero-offset zoom lenses for DLP projectors. The new ET-ELU20 lens brings the same flexible ultra-short-throw performance to select LCD laser projectors, allowing exhibition designers to choose the projection display technology that best suits their needs. These lenses make immersive and efficient LCD laser projection possible from short throw-distances in museums and other exhibition spaces by combining cost-efficient installation with vivid image quality and minimal shadowing.

Short Throw-Distance Reduces Screen Shadows

With a short 0.330–0.353:1 (WUXGA) throw-ratio, the lens supports a minimum projection distance of about 1.43 m (4.69 ft) for a 200-inch (16:10) image. Viewers can approach the screen without casting a shadow, making the lenses ideal for image projection onto passageway walls or other narrow spaces.

Unobstructed Visibility with Zero Screen Offset

The lense enables image reproduction with zero screen offset, eliminating the distracting gap between the top of the image and the ceiling or projector mounting surface. Position the image for seamless floor-to-ceiling image coverage over walls, or completely fill the available screen area without gaps. The mirrorless design also eliminates lens overhang. Mount the projector directly on the ceiling and avoid the hassle and expense of in-ceiling projector recessing to keep the screen clear in rooms with low ceilings.
