Description

The ZH450ST pairs Full HD 1080p resolution with a short throw 0.496:1 fixed lens, letting it produce a large image from close to the screen without the wall-mounted footprint of an ultra short throw unit. At 4,200 lumens it's bright enough for classrooms and meeting rooms with typical ambient lighting.

As with the rest of Optoma's DuraCore laser range, the ZH450ST uses a sealed IP6X-rated light engine rated for up to 30,000 hours, removing the ongoing cost of lamp and filter replacement. The laser source also means instant startup and shutdown, useful where a room is used back-to-back through the day.

A 300,000:1 contrast ratio, built-in 15W speaker and compact, eco-conscious chassis round out a projector aimed at schools and businesses that want a bright, low-maintenance short throw solution without stepping up to ultra short throw pricing.

Planning from a real wall? Use the projector screen size calculator to upload a photo, preview the image to scale and find projectors that fit within your maximum available space. Replacing an existing projector? The projector replacement calculator checks whether this lens covers the ratio your current mount needs.

Distances are lens-to-screen, calculated from the manufacturer's stated throw ratio; allow for lens shift and mounting hardware. Always confirm against the manufacturer's installation guide before fixing mounts.
