Screen Size and Throw
Distance:
Maximum Screen Size: The BenQ TH575 is capable of projecting a screen size of up to 200 inches (diagonal) and even up to 300 inches, according to some specifications.
Throw Ratio: The projector has a throw ratio of 1.49 to 1.64:1. This means that for every unit of distance the projector is from the screen, the image width is between 1.49 and 1.64 times that distance. To achieve a very large screen size like 200 inches, the projector will need to be placed a significant distance from the wall or screen.
Throw Distance for 200 inches: To calculate the required distance for a 200-inch screen, you would need to use a projector calculator or consult the user manual for precise measurements. However, a general estimate for a 200-inch 16:9 screen suggests a throw distance of approximately 16 to 18 feet (about 4.9 to 5.5 meters). This is a crucial factor to consider for your specific room setup.
Key Features and Performance:
Resolution: Native Full HD (1920x1080).
Brightness: 3800 ANSI Lumens, which is a high brightness level suitable for use in rooms with some ambient light.
Contrast Ratio: 15,000:1, which helps to produce deeper blacks and more detailed images.
Gaming: It is a strong choice for gamers due to its low input lag of 16.7ms (at 1080p@60Hz), which ensures a smooth and responsive gaming experience. It also features a "Game mode" that fine-tunes visuals for improved clarity in dark scenes.
Connectivity: Includes two HDMI 1.4 ports. It does not have a built-in smart operating system, so you would need to connect an external device like a Fire Stick, Roku, or game console.
Lamp Life: The projector uses a lamp with a life of up to 15,000 hours in its "LampSave" mode, which helps reduce maintenance costs.
Audio: It has a built-in 10W mono speaker, though external speakers or a soundbar are generally recommended for a more immersive audio experience.
Ease of Setup: Features include auto vertical keystone correction, which helps align the image correctly from different angles. It also has a 1.1x zoom to provide some flexibility in placement.
