What is the shortest distance at which it will focus? I have 10' room. How big would the resulting image be?

I have mine in a 15 ft room no problem. The problem with 10ft is going to be size of picture it will definitely focous . If you look through the web sight view sonics there is a chart that will tell you size but it will focous

I honestly haven't had a problem with the focus at any size. Right now I have it projected on a full wall, about 120", and its great. You can easily adjust the settings so it will always have the best picture.

Alison,My distance from lens to screen right now is 10.5 ft and I get around a 80' images measured diagonally . I am sure you could project less than 10.5 ft and just have a slightly smaller image. Hope that helps-Mark

You're lucky because I have a 10' room as well. I measured the image size diagonally and at full zoom in the image size was 98". It looks pretty good and big. If you're watching 4:3 it's even bigger. And for wide screen it's a bit smaller than 98".

I actually set my projector about 8 feet from the screen that I have to do power point presentations on. I don't think that you will have a problem focusing from a shorter distance.

it is portable it will take 5 to 10 mins to set it up and it will fit in a focus if its taken down

Focus wise it can be as close as less than 6 feet for my eyes (I think it depends on viewer's eyesight). However, the real problem is the images from two eyes don't over lap very well when the object is this close. If you want to observe something that close, Pentax Papilio is designed for that purpose and has very good reputation.

First extend it to full length, then adjust the focus. And you can only use it for distant objects. I don't have it now but I remember it do require some trial and error.

Tongfeng Z. A good question. My throw distance is about 20 feet which makes an image 20 feet from corner to corner. I will try 10 feet tonight and let you know. There is a zoom function so I will give you the minimum and maximum.

Fixed focus, does not zoom, approx. 2.5' diameter spot at 20'. never timed it's battery life because I've never used it more than about 30 minutes

Use the longer mode for most shots. The short focus mode (9 ft or so) seeks like crazy and can be a lot of trouble. The lens operates best at 30ft or so. It is sharp as a tack and fast as hell on focusing. The short range is only good for real closeups. Other than that, leave it in the longer range.

The distance is not an issue you will be able to see it at 6 ft away. We have never used it in the day or in a bright room but I do feel if may be an issue as it at times was not extremely bright with some videos displayed on it.

Minimum focus distance is about 11 inches for the stock Nikon lens if I remember right so if you get any closer you wont get a clear shot. If you want to shoot closer look into a micro/macro lense lens.

For a 50" diagonal image, 5.4 feet., according to projetorcentral.com . I get a fairly bright 60" diagonal image in my small den with dim lighting from an adjacent room.

I've had it 20 feet away from screen, image was great. Haven't tried it further because I speak with laptop and projector up front with me. Hope this helps.

2nd answer. If you mean the closest distance you're able to focus at? I can only guess at about 15 to 20 feet. If you mean the closest distance you can calculate by using the mildot system I would again guess as close as you can get a clear focused picture. Mine gives me a very clear picture fifty yards and out but I could not honestly tell you the minimum useful distance.KT

You can be from infinite up to 30cm distance from your object. Less than 30cm, the image will be blurred. Hope it helps you.

What I was told with 3.5X loupes is the focal distance should be at least 24-36". I must admit, I was "off" until I finally got myself to hold my head away from the patient at least that distance. Otherwise, everything is blurry. I'm also trying the 2.5x loupes now.

The minimum focus distance is 0.15m. At that distance the magnification should be at least 1:1.

this cam; can maximize its range within 3-5 feet/ it can see the entire room... if you were pointing it directly at something; yes i can focus 1 foot or closer; but as the cam is placed firther away it can obviously see more and more and more and can maximize it range within 4-5 feet...

You have to point it at the camera, in front or behind the camera. But I'm not sure of the distance. It doesn't work in another room.
