The formula for screen size and projection distance
y= (0.0208x0.0561)3.28
z1(Upper) = 0.245x
z2(Lower) = 0.210x
x: Screen size (diag.) (inches)
y: Projection distance (L) (feet)
z: Lens center to the lower edge of the screen (H) (inches)
There is an error of 3% in the formula above.
Values with a minus () sign indicate the distance of the lens center below the bottom of the screen.
