It fits the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/creationnetworks.net\/collections\/christie-projectors\"\u003eKorus 4K1000-KS and 4K1400-KS\u003c\/a\u003e, both of which ship as no-lens bodies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhen a short throw is the answer\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 0.5–0.65:1 this lens fills a screen from roughly half to two-thirds of the image width away. A 10-foot-wide image needs only 5 to 6.5 feet of throw distance, against 12.5 to 20 feet for the standard zoom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat solves specific problems: a shallow room where the projector cannot sit far enough back, a ceiling structure that dictates mounting position, a presenter standing near the screen who would otherwise cast a shadow, or a retrofit where the mount position is already fixed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eShort throw demands precision\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShort-throw optics magnify positioning errors. A small deviation in mounting angle produces a visible geometric distortion that would be negligible on a standard lens. Full ILS motorised shift, zoom and focus help, and Christie Twist on the projector corrects the remainder — but getting the mount right is still the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe lens is a required line item\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKorus projectors are supplied without a lens so the optic matches the room.

Short-throw installations are particularly sensitive to mounting position, so we calculate throw and image geometry against the room drawing before anything is ordered.
