26 Setting Up the Projector

EX71 (16:9 image)

Projector Placement Options

When projecting from the front, you should place the projector

directly in front of the center of the screen, facing the screen squarely.

The center of the lens should be about level with the bottom of the

screen.

If you place the projector below screen level, you may need to tilt it up

by extending the front adjustable foot. Tilting the projector causes the

image to become “keystone” shaped, bu/t you can correct the

distortion (see page 47). The EX51/EX71 may be able to correct the

distortion automatically.
