Epson ELPLS04 – Standard Zoom Lens for Pro Z

Product Overview

The Epson ELPLS04 standard zoom projector lens is the interchangeable standard-throw lens for Epson PowerLite Pro Z Series large-venue projectors. With a broad zoom range and screen support from 60" to 500", this Epson standard zoom lens (V12H004U04) covers the most common throw distances in auditoriums, houses of worship, and rental work. It is the baseline optic specifying integrators reach for when a Pro Z projector is mounted at a conventional distance from the screen.

Product Description

The ELPLS04 provides a WUXGA throw ratio of 1.74 to 2.82, a WXGA range of 1.71 to 2.78, and an XGA range of 1.63 to 2.65, paired with a 1.0 to 1.61x zoom for flexible framing. Its focal length runs 36.00 mm to 57.35 mm with an F-number of 1.65 to 2.51, and the published projection distance spans roughly 6 ft 4 in to 100 ft 7 in depending on screen size. That range covers most mid-room mounting positions, which is why a standard zoom is the default lens for fixed installs before an integrator considers wider or longer optics. The lens is interchangeable across the PowerLite Pro Z Series chassis, including Z8000, Z9000, Z10000, and Z11000 family models. For current Epson large-venue laser platforms that use the company's newer lens lineup, review the Epson EB-PU2010B and the body-only Epson Pro L20000UNL, or browse the full Epson projector lineup to confirm fitment. The lens ships separately from the projector.
