Distance to width ratio is defined as : for every foot of distance the image size would be 1 foot.
Example:
Distance width ratio of; 1: 2.2 – 4.1
1 foot wide image
Minimum distance would be 2.2 feet
Maximum distance would be 4.1 feetThis is a quick reference to determine what lens is appropriate for a specific installation. Please use the appropriate lens calculator for more detailed and accurate measurements.
Vertical = 15 degrees
Horizontal = 5 degrees
Hitachi provides specific throw calculators for each model. Each calculator will allow you to determine what lens is required by throw distance, image width or image diagonal required. These calculators can be found on the product pages of our web site.

To calculate Actual Horizontal offset within keystone spec
(Distance from screen to projector) x TAN( 5 degrees)
Example:
223” (18.7ft) from screen to projector
223” tan 5 degrees = 19.57”
PJ can be installed 19.5” max off center and still keystone correct
To Calculate actual Vertical offset within vertical keystone spec
tan-1(The difference between height of the top of screen and the height of the projector divided by the distance from screen to projector)
Example:
Top of screen= 79”
PJ height is = 96”
96”-79” = 17”
Difference is 17”
Distance from screen to PJ( which is given by the image size and throw distance chart) = 135”
tan-1 (17/135) = 7.2 degreesCorrectable with vertical keystone adjustment ( Vertical Keystone correction is 15 degrees max)
