I was wondering the exact same thing. Sorry I can't answer but I am hoping someone can.

We mounted our projected at church about 5-6 feet from the wall, and I think you can reduce the screen size by using the keystone feature. Hope this helps.

At its highest settings if is about 5'8" to the top of the screen. Hope that gives you an idea

It will depend how big of a screen you want- we have ours set back about six feet and it gives us about a 10 ft screen- but I have to dim lights to get the full picture- now if you were closer it should have plenty of lumens to show up well

The earlier rules of thumb for distance from a tv set were based on lower resolution screens where the issue was 'how far away do I have to be so the lines on the picture aren't visible'. Now the new issue with HDTV is 'how close should I sit for maximum realism'. The answer is in part subjective, and as such there's no exact answer, but a widely used rule of thumb is to take one tenth the screen diagonal in inches and call that the minimum distance in feet, and then increase it 50% for the maximum distance. Somewhere in that zone is optimum. So, for a 70" screen, try not to sit closer than 7' and if you are more than about 10.5' away, you're losing the maximum impact of the viewing experience.

Ten feet is pushing it. The best viewing range is 3-6 feet, IMO. Think about it this way; a 22" widescreen with a 16:10 aspect ratio is equivalent to a 19" screen with an aspect ratio of 4:3. For viewing ten feet, go at least one size larger. But I'm hard to please, just take a look at a 18" or 19" 4:3 television at 10' and decide for yourself.

Also note that the 1 foot screen drop at the top is fully adjustable, you can essentially have zero inches between the top of the screen and the bottom of the frame. Hope this helps.

I never opened the screen as it was tightly wrapped. I assume that it was of the same demensions as the screen I received with Pinnacle 14 about 6ft x 6ft. Agter a lot of reading on green screen an experimenation I have found that larger screens are needed along with good lighting. Look on Amazon for green screens and you will find some good set-ups. The screen you will receive will work for simple projects. George

I think it really depends on how close to the wall/screen you are mounting the projector. Mine is 16 feet from the front of the projector to the wall and easily covers every bit of my 10' 8" (diagonal) screen with excellent resolution. So from 12 feet you should be able to project a very large quality image.

Our projectors throw about 14 feet onto a 5' x 7' screen. There is a handy calculator at http://www.projectorcentral.com/projection-calculator.cfm

Yes, you just need to draw up the screen more along the top. It's easy. Or you would just let the material bag up around the bottom. I think it would be fine. I had mine on the 9' umbrella and wish the screen was bigger so I think the 7' umbrella would be ok.

Yes, it is 16:9 ratio. It also can be adjusted to 4:3 ratio. It can be about 3-4.5 meters from screen.

The largest I've done so far is 8 X 11, standard paper size. Should handle anything up to the size of the screen, I'd think.

I have a 120" screen, our couches are 14 feet from the screen at it looks really good. Also remember it will depend on your source. Broadcast TV will not look as good as a blu-ray or HD movie rip. Needless to say people are always amazed when they come over to watch a game.

I think this screen is like 90" diagonal so you'll want a projector that can project around that number so you don't have a lot of white space when watching something. Most projectors project from like 20"-80" and up so all you have to do is move the projector closer or further away from the screen to get the size you want! But just make sure the projector you buy can reach at least 80" diagonally otherwise the picture won't be as clear on the screen and there will be a lot of extra white space!

At 20 feet you may have a brightness problem. The picture will be too big to get on a screen.

my setup is 7' high and 10' from the screen. The lens is in maximum zoom position to attain about 120" screensize.
