Christie ILS4 1.45-2.17:1 High-Brightness Zoom Lens - 144-130105-02

Product Overview

The Christie 144-130105-02 is a high-brightness ILS4 zoom projection lens with a 1.45-2.17:1 throw ratio and approximately 1.45x zoom range. Power zoom and power focus allow remote adjustment after rigging, and the ILS4 format provides automatic lens recognition on compatible Christie projectors. The throw range covers the most common standard-throw installation geometries.

Product Description

This high-brightness zoom lens covers the standard-throw envelope that most installations require: at 1.45-2.17:1, the projector is positioned roughly 1.45 to 2.17 times the image width from the screen, fitting typical auditorium, ballroom, and event positions. The high-brightness optical design prioritizes light throughput, the right trade-off for lit venues and very large screens where lumens on screen are the limiting factor. The roughly 1.45x zoom range provides placement flexibility, and power zoom and power focus permit fine adjustment from the remote once the projector is rigged. As an ILS4-format lens it is recognized automatically on compatible Christie projectors and supports repeatable recall of lens positions, which speeds setup in rental workflows and multi-format venues. Confirm fit against your specific Christie projector model before ordering; our team can verify compatibility.
