This is a guide only.  We do not make any guarantees regarding such compatibility.  Any listing of equipment is not intended as an endorsement of such equipment and the absence of any particular projector model should not be meant to imply a lack of compatibility.  In all cases, check your projector yourself or refer to the projector manufacturer or user manual for more information.  Note that Physical Compatibility includes meeting the requirements listed in the User Guide does not imply that a particular Panamorph product fits directly onto the projector.  If you find that any of the following information is in error or incomplete, or if you own a projector not shown and have determined that it internally supports either scaling mode, please contact us so we can include it in the list.
