2.35:1 Fixed Lens Option |
2.35:1 Moveable Lens Option |
|
The simplest approach to 2.35:1 imaging
involves fixing a Panamorph lens in front of your
16:9 projector and using electronic scaling to a)
stretch 2.35:1 movies by 33% in the vertical
direction (Mode I scaling) and b) squeeze all
non-2.35 content by 25% in the horizontal direction
(Mode II scaling). With this approach, all content is
shown with the same brightness and resolution per
unit area and all formats up through 2.35:1
are shown using the projector's full vertical resolution.
|
You can move the
Panamorph lens out of the beam to increase
horizontal resolution and
brightness for
non-2.35:1 content
compared to a fixed lens.
Since the lens is only used for 2.35:1
content, only
Mode I electronic imaging scaling is required.

This small Vertical
Compression (VC) lens provides exceptional performance for
throw ratios above 1.8 and
projector beam heights below 1.5". |
Our top of the line,
large Horizontal Expansion (HE) lens for 16:9 throw ratios above 1.6
and projector beams up to 3.1" square.

The UH480 can be manually
removed for non-2.35:1 content using your own
mounting hardware or combined with the ATH1 transport for
push-button convenience. |
