First off, this website is a wealth of information and I have learned a lot from you all. But, I have spent the past 2 weeks reading and rereading on projectors and I think I am more confused now than ever. My issue is trying to figure out what projector central is telling me. I am trying to stay at or below the $1k price point. My screen will be 10' wide by 9' tall. the projector will be ceiling mounted somewhere between 9' and 11' from the screen(prefer 9-10 but can go out to 11 if needed) and mounted overhead. The common recommendations seem to be the optima 1080 and BenQ 2050 and BENQ3050 for the brightness factor. My garage will be on the brighter side since it is detached and i have to keep the doors open so I don't die of the heat in the summer. When looking at projector central for the benq3050, if i put the distance from the screen at 11 feet it says the width is 10' and height is only 5'5". However there is another user here that has that projector and it looks like it is projecting perfectly on a 10 by 9 screen at 11 feet. What am i missing? if i move the projector to 10' is the height projected really only 8'8" by 5'11"? Doesn't seem right and I think I am missing an important piece of the puzzle.
Thank you in advance for the help and guidance!
