2 Features of the Projector Horizontal and vertical keystone correction function Keystone distortion in the projected image can be easily corrected, not only vertically but horizontally also. This allows even images which have been captured from a sideways angle to be projected correctly. (P. 44) Easy to Operate The accessory remote control can be used for operations such as pausing projection (See Freeze on page 54) and zooming in on important areas of an image (See E-Zoom on page 56). In addition, the remote control can be used to move the pointer around on the computer screen during projection, to carry out operations such as moving to the next page to be projected. (See Using the Remote Control to Operate the Mouse Pointer on page 25.) If using the wireless mouse function with a USB connection you can use the remote control to display the next page or previous page when giving a presentation using PowerPoint documents.
