Christie 0.84 to 1.02:1 Short Zoom Lens - 140-114107-01

Product Overview

The Christie 0.84 to 1.02:1 Short Zoom Lens (140-114107) is an ultra-short-throw zoom option for Christie 1DLP H and HS Series laser projectors. With a throw ratio of 0.84 to 1.02:1, the projector sits at less than the width of the projected image from the screen — roughly 0.84 to 1.02 times the image width. Listed compatibility includes the Christie D12HD-H and D12WU-H, with vendor data also referencing D13, and HS Series D12, D13, D16, and D20 models.

Product Description

When room depth is the limiting factor, the 140-114107 covers the shortest zoom range in this part of the H/HS Series lens family. A throw ratio under 1:1 lets the projector mount almost directly above or below the screen plane, which is essential for shallow stages, rear-projection cabinets with limited cabinet depth, and exhibit enclosures. Unlike fixed ultra-short-throw optics, this lens retains a zoom range, giving installers fine control over image size without moving the projector — a meaningful advantage during commissioning and when screens are replaced or resized. The lens uses Christie's standard H/HS mount and exchanges quickly with longer-throw lenses, supporting rental and staging inventories that must adapt to varied venues. As genuine Christie glass, it is optically matched to the H/HS laser light engines to maintain corner-to-corner focus at very short distances, where lens quality is most visible.
