Vidikron Model 85 manual Anamorphic Lens Top View

Installation

Correct Lens Angle

Incorrect Lens Angle

The anamorphic lens will almost always be angled with respect to the projector; this is normal. Once the proper lens angle has been set, firmly tighten the Pitch Adjustment Screws to secure the lens in place.

There may be some pincushion distortion even after the lens is properly

Note adjusted, especially at shorter throw distances. If this is the case, Vidikron recommends that you slightly over-scan the image into the screen frame area to mask the distortion.

Adjusting the Yaw: Loosen the Yaw/Z-Adjustment Knobs to allow the lens to pivot freely from side to side. Then, angle the lens to even out any left-right pincushion distortion:
