The lens is fixed, however, so there is no optical zoom to fine-tune image size. Measure your screen's image width and the available mounting distance before ordering. BenQ's Golf-Sim 3D Planner and projection guidance can help confirm placement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation note:\u003c\/strong\u003e The projector supports digital keystone and Corner Fit adjustments, but these should not be treated as a substitute for correct physical placement.
