[QUOTE="Brad Weber, post: 117622, member: 114"] Re: Video projector suitable for outdoor use The old rule of thumb I learned was to provide an image height 1/8 the distance to the furthest viewer for general video viewing, 1/6 for general data viewing and 1/4 for critical viewing (CAD drawings, spreadsheets, etc.). Many seem to use 1/10, 1/12 and even greater the distance to the furthest viewer where they are primarily viewing text and can use quite large fonts. For an outdoor screen for movie viewing I'd use 1/8 the distance to the furthest viewer and that may be where TJ got the 10' height he noted, although with a 75' deep and 100' wide audience area it's actually around 90'+ to the back corners and thus an 11' to 12' high image would be even better.
