Christie 0.67:1 ILS Fixed Lens - 118-100110-03

Product Overview

The Christie 118-100110-03 is a short-throw fixed lens for the Christie M Series with a 0.67:1 throw ratio on HD/WU models and 0.73:1 on SXGA+ models. Every lens in the M Series suite includes Christie's true Intelligent Lens System (ILS), which automatically recognizes and calibrates the lens the moment it is installed. Stepper-motor encoding eliminates the motor drift common to DC-encoded designs, so offset, zoom, and focus positions recall accurately every time. It is the lens to specify when an M Series projector must sit close to the screen.

Product Description

A 0.67:1 throw ratio places the projector roughly two-thirds of the image width from the screen, covering screen widths from 100 to 175 inches (254–445 cm) on HD/WU projectors. On SXGA+ models the effective ratio is 0.73:1 with a 100–160 inch (254–406 cm) screen range. Lens shift of ±35% vertical and ±12% horizontal (±23% / ±13% on SXGA+) gives installers latitude to mount off-axis without keystone distortion. The ILS architecture is the real differentiator: install the lens and the projector identifies it, calibrates it, and stores repeatable position presets — valuable in rental fleets where lenses move between chassis, and in multi-projector blends where alignment drift ruins the image. Christie recommends confirming throw distances with the Christie Lens Calculator before finalizing projector placement.

Key Features

• 0.67:1 Short Throw Ratio (HD/WU) — large images from short distances; 0.73:1 on SXGA+ models.
• Intelligent Lens System (ILS) — automatic lens recognition and calibration on installation.
• Stepper-Motor Encoding — prevents motor drift for accurate, repeatable recall of offset, zoom, and focus.
• Lens Shift — ±35% vertical and ±12% horizontal on HD/WU for flexible mounting.
• Wide Screen Coverage — supports 100–175 in (254–445 cm) screen widths on HD/WU.
• M Series Suite Compatibility — interchangeable across Christie M Series projectors.

Typical Applications

Specify this lens for M Series projectors in space-constrained venues: rear-projection booths, stage and scenic projection close to the surface, museum installations, and houses of worship with shallow projection rooms.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does ILS do for me?
The Intelligent Lens System automatically recognizes and calibrates the lens when installed and stores offset, zoom, and focus positions for accurate recall — no manual recalibration each time.

Why are two throw ratios listed?
The effective ratio depends on the projector's imaging chip: 0.67:1 on M Series HD/WU models and 0.73:1 on SXGA+ models.

How do I confirm the throw distance for my screen?
Use the Christie Lens Calculator or the throw distance chart for your specific M Series projector before finalizing placement.

Will it drift out of focus over time?
Stepper-motor encoding eliminates the drift typical of DC-encoded motors, keeping stored positions accurate.
