How big a projection does it cast?

I would say you can easily get around 50 inch projection in a dark room. In fact it is quite impressive for the size of projector. I do not regret one bit buying this though the price slightly higher than rest of the camcorders without projector. whether I am at home or at friend or relative's house, this thing simply allows me to cast a video footage without any connecters.

Well it depends on the ambient light of the room, obviously. But overall I've been real impressed with the projector. Let's just say that if I turn off all the lights in my living room at night I can get a pretty clear image that is about 100'' from corner to corner. In most lighting conditions a clear 40-50'' image is typical. Of course it doesn't compare to a real projector, but it works much better than I expected.

from my experience you need 15 to 20 feet for that wide of spread. I project 15' by 10' at 20' out from the screen

I didn't actually check the extremes so I probably can't give you a great answer. Have you checked out one of these calculators? http://www.projectorcentral.com/projection-calculator.cfm....It was helpful for me. I can tell you I'm projecting from around 14 ft and it looks great on a 133" diagonal screen. There's a decent discussion that helped me here: http://www.avsforum.com/t/1271155/throw-distance-optoma-hd20 Hope that helps!

The projector doesn't really matter because they all are adjustable when it comes to the size of the picture they project. The screen you are looking at will accept an 8 foot image. If you are looking to project a bigger image they do make screens that are larger in size.I have this screen and it works great for me. We use it outdoors and can watch a movie from over 50 feet away and no one has a problem seeing the picture.

The largest screen I have projected on is a 10' x 20' white tarp hung on a baseball backstop for an outside movie night. Projected in HD 1080p. Image looked great. A 12' x 21' screen with the projector set back 37' in a dark room will still look good.

87x110=137" Diagonal it's come, but you can use up to 130" diagonal for the projector screen of 4:3......

The projector base is 5x5 so no you cannot project a larger image at one time.

The projectors that I researched will project an image from 20"-300" . The closer the projector is to the screen, the smaller the image. The 115" diagonal screen is a great size. I've set up the screen in the back yard several times for movie nights. You can hang the screen on a fence or from the low eave of the house. I like the screen but you will need to use the anchors (that are provided) on all 4 corners. Let me know if you have any other questions.

I'm not sure. I think the screen I project onto is about that size but the image doesn't FILL the screen. But I've just tried projecting slides, etc., from my laptop for a class; I haven't tried projecting movies yet.

no idea.. still getting used to it. I haven't figured how to adjust size, save moving the projector up close. The brightness and clarity were good. This was my first public use of it. All-in-all, pleased with it.

No. It shows very nicely from a distance of about 15 feet. It fills up a normal screen 10 x 10. I actually don't know what it would do if you had an auditorium sized screen.

The size of the screen relates to the distance the projector is from the screen. I would size the screen based on the size of the room it is located in or the number of people you expect to view it.

this is an interesting projector. very large projected images...within 30 inches of a wall or screen. the projector lens is actually convex hence the "short throw" feature. as you move the projector away from the wall or screen, it very quickly becomes extremely large...approximately 8' hign about 6' from the wall

It definitely depends on the throw of the projector, for example my Benq W1500 is rated as a 1.07 to 1.71 zoom throw, So I multiply 144"(screen size) x 1.07 and then again x 1.71 and I know that I need to set this projector between 154"(12'-10") and 246" (20'-6") away from the screen.

The white projection screen area is 100cm or 39.37 inches. The supporting ends are about 5.10 cm or 2 inches each. Hope this helps.

Thank you for considering this product. The projection is 12". When up, it is locked into position. This is very suitable for what you are considering.
