Setting-up dimensions which are not given in the above
table can be calculated using the formulas below.
LW = 0.03713 x SD – 0.05067
LT = 0.049 x SD – 0.05
(LW,LT: m    SD: inch)
For 16 : 9 aspect rations, the following formal can be
used to calculate the screen width (SW).
SW = (SD x 0.0254) x 16 ÷337
The value for SW obtained above can then be used
with the following function to calculate the projection
distance for the wide lens position (LW) and the
projection distance for the telephoto lens position...
