Optoma and Navitar jointly announced two new interchangeable lenses compatible with Optoma ProScene projector models — including a long throw and extra-long throw Navitar NuView replacement lens. Fixed lens projectors are an industry challenge, limiting installation options in environments such as houses of worship, auditoriums, entertainment venues and retail spaces. With throw ratios up to 15.24:1, Navitar’s extra-long throw NuView lenses allows projectors to be placed more than 100 feet from a projection surface.

The new Navitar lenses complement Optoma’s current line of interchangeable long, standard, short and ultra-short throw lenses. The NuView 578MCZ500 has a long throw ratio of 4.85 – 8.66:1 and the NuView 578MCZ087 has an extra-long throw ratio of 9.15 – 15.24:1. Both lenses are compatible with Optoma ProScene models ZU660, ZU750, ZU850 and ZU1050 and feature manual zoom and focus.

Navitar lenses are here.
