Product Overview
The Barco GC lens 1.2-1.5:1 (R9802183) is a standard zoom optic for the Barco G-series and G100 WUXGA projector platform. Its standard throw ratio covers typical front-projection rooms where the projector sits a moderate distance from the screen, making it a versatile general-purpose lens for G-platform installs. The lens is fully motorized on both zoom and focus and supports lens memory for both. A 1.25x zoom provides placement flexibility within the standard-throw window.
Product Description
This GC standard zoom lens is built for everyday front-projection geometries on the G-platform, covering throw distances from 1.34 m to 16.69 m. As shown in the product gallery, it uses the standard GC mount, projects 56.79 mm out of the projector body and has a 122 mm front diameter. Working F/# runs from 2.2 wide to 2.6 tele across a 25.5-31.8 mm focal range, with lens shift of vertical plus or minus 120 and horizontal plus or minus 50. Because lens memory covers both zoom and focus, integrators can store and recall full lens positions for scheduled or multi-aspect content.
This lens fits the Barco G-series and G100 WUXGA projectors. For a shorter near-unity throw, see the GC lens 0.84-1.02:1; for longer reach, compare the GC lens 2.0-4.0:1.
