Short throw distance
The projector's short focal length lens allows a 80 inches (diagonal screen size) image to be projected from a distance of only 75cm from the screen. The presenter is not distracted by the projected image, and it’s easier for the audience to see the projected image as on screen shadows from the presenter are minimised.
