My ceiling mount is fixed and my 103 inch screen is fixed on the wall. Can i mount this projector and adjust the lens to project on the screen?

It's has different frames, but it does not have the ability to adjust the frame size without moving the projector. If you can figure out a way to make it work this is a great projector

You need to go to the Optoma website to check the throw distance for the HD25e. You will need to know the distance from your projector mount to your screen. Here is the link for the site. http://www.optomausa.com/support/calculator/ Just select the HD25e and put in the appropriate information. You can mount the projector but this will let you know if it will fill up your whole screen or if it will be too big or small.

Go to the Optoma Web Site, Support, Distance Calculator and enter 103" for screen size and the throw Range is 11'3" to 13'6". I am very happy with the Optoma HD25e , very bright, sharp display.

This projector has great picture quality. However, the Zoom In and Out function does not allow much flexibility. This is designed for a mid to large size room (Far Projection). If the wall mount is too close to the projection screen, you will not be able to do much in the Zoom area. We have 5 projectors at work and this one is one we have to place towards the end of the room for the desired projection. Just something to consider.

yes, if mounted to ceiling it will work from about 20-25 feet from projector.

I bought a screen along with the projector but prepared a matted white painted wall as back up. The screen was too short so I resulted to the wall, it was a wonderful decision. I have been using the wall. Just make sure the wall is painted plain white and not glossy, the projector works on it even with the blinds open. Great choice!

Hi Forest, as for distance as this projector has a zoom function, the range for a 100 inch screen is between 5'3" and 6'4". Not certain what to recommend re ceiling mount, I adapted my old Dell mount to suit. I find this site to be really useful when considering what to buy.... http://www.projectorcentral.com/BenQ-W770ST-projection-calculator-pro.htm

It has a pretty wide range as far as the vertical pitch but that may distort your picture if your projector doesnt have a decent v shift. My ceiling is only 8 feet high and it works perfect. I would guess no higher than 12 feet to get a good view. The mount is really low profile. I don't know if I was much help haha. Good luck!!

That would be correct. You can change the size of the image the old fashioned way, moving the projector. The short throw is worth the lack of zoom for me and my use of the unit.

No, it's not very adjustable in that aspect. From the top of the back part of the mounting bracket (on the wall) down to the top of the projector is 8 inches.

I believe they have ceiling mounts on Amazon for this projector! I just put mine on a shelf high on the wall and that has been working great!

Not for sure, but the "spider" that holds the projector has a fairly wide range of adjustments to hold most projectors. The look in our ceiling makes it almost unnoticeable. It is easy to adjust the angle and position of the projector, but you have to make sure you tighten real well to prevent movement.

No, the projector has a flat base and fixed angle of projection. To change the angle of projection, you would need to place it on a slanted surface.

There is a grey screw with a Phillips head that you turn to either adjust up or down on the projector. Hope it helps.

Yes, I used this projector to replace an optoma HD20. Mine is also ceiling mounted, I used the same mount in the same location.

The mount has an adjustable ball and socket joint between the projector base plate and the telescoping shaft. It should allow you to adjust for the angle of a vaulted ceiling. You can also use the keystone correction on your projector if needed. Edit: Just noticed in the spec that the tilt angle is +/- 25 degrees, so definitely check the angle of your ceiling first.

It would need to sit on a shelf or be mounted on a bracket which could attach to the bottom of the projector and the wall behind it at the same time. The only holes for a mount are on the bottom.

It is my opinion, that while it could be used as a wall mount it most definitely would not be the preferred way to use it. There is some play in the way that the bracket hangs from the top ceiling mount (it's just slotted and no matter how tight those three top bolts are it still has play) When hanging form the ceiling this doesn't have any effect on the projector but I am afraid that might not be the case when using it from the wall. That is not to say that someone couldn't make it work if you're pretty handy in that way.

Yes, I have this projector ceiling mounted. You will have to buy the ceiling mounting bracket separately.Most projectors can be set up so they can project from the rear, from the front, right side up, or upside down.

Yes it does. You might have to modify it a little. I do karaoke with a 120 inch screen and I mounted the projector upside down on the ceiling.
