I am working a production with a very low budget and we want to do projections onto a screen roughly 18'x15' where we only have a 20' throw for the projector. I am looking at the BENQ MP515. Here are the specs:
rightness (Lumens) : 2500 ANSI
Contrast (Full On/Off) : 2600:1
Variable Iris: **
Audible Noise: 32.0 dB
Eco-Mode: 26.0 dB
Weight: 5.3 lbs
Size (inches) (HxWxD) : 3.5 x 10.0 x 8.4
Std. Lens: Focus:
Manual
Zoom: Manual, 1.20:1
Throw Dist (feet) : 2.0 - 21.7
Image Size (inches) : 27.5 - 363.0
It can produce an image of the desired size with the available throw but I am worried about the lumens. It says it is 2500 lumens but I don't know at what distance that is measured from. If it is projected onto and actual projection screen and not just a white surface and light doesn't spill directly onto it would 2500 lumens cut it and would I be able to do projections with the projector?
