That's wider/closer than most prefer, but it's JUST right for me--a foot closer and I can see the pixels of my 1080P projector.

Panavision ratio (2.35:1), too. :-)

My projector, a newish Epson 8700UB, sits immediately behind and above the listening position and has manual shift and lens-length controls, and it's really easy to adjust them to achieve a constant image height.

We have a screen of that size in our projector system, and we used to watch from about 16 feet.

    Some of my body parts ain't what they used to be, but with good Nikon binoculars I can see the big plasma in my neighbor's home, about 1/3 mile away.
