Help find projector 16:10 for 185" screen 8.5x13 ceiling mounted from like 10-13ft?

Trying to find a projector I can mount somewhere around 10-13ft on the ceiling for a 185" screen 8.5x13. Anyone have some options.

Optoma WU 515ST. It's WUXGA (1920 x 1200) with 5500 Lumens. The throw ratio is 0.79. It will throw a 185" from 12.2'.

That might be a good one to get and around the price range I was looking at.

Have you checked projector central?
You can filter based on throw ratio.

Panasonic PT-EZ590 with short throw lens.
For a 13.5 ft by 8.5ft screen the zoom function allows positioning from 9ft 11inches to 12ft 11inches

Thanks I will check that out. I guess I didn't specify a price range. was thinking in that 2000 ballpark.

Ah, ok the Pana with the short throw lens is about $5.5k... however I picked mine up second hand for £1600.
Have a look round in the second hand market. Most deals still have plenty of lamp life and even if they don't it's only a couple hundred dollars for a new lamp.

What's your hitting distance (ball to screen)?

[nfear24]

I was going to hit from that 10-12ft range so the projector shouldn't cast any shadows then.

How high is your ceiling?
