result in the Panamorph anamorphic lens being below the center of the projector lens and tilted
slightly downward. Tighten the knobs.
c.
Adjust the rotation of the Transport about the Pivot Screw so that the left and
right sides of the image are an equal distance from their respective screen borders. Now
tighten the Pivot Screw and the four #6 screws holding the Transport to the Attachment Plate.
d.
For optimum multiple aspect ratio performance, adjust the projector’s zoom so
that a 1.85:1 aspect ratio movie (Panamorph anamorphic lens “out”) is just masked by the top
and bottom of the screen border. This way 1.85:1, 16:9 and 2.35-2.4:1 aspect ratio movies
should all be presented to fill the screen at a constant height.
Note: If you use lens zoom while projecting in anamorphic mode, you may observe a slight image
distortion and reduced brightness. To minimize these effects, place the projector at the recommended
distance from the screen, as listed in your projector manual. This will lessen the need to use lens zoom.
CLEANING
In most applications lenses do not need very much cleaning – a bit of dust will not impact image
clarity. However, in today’s high performance home cinemas with very dark rooms a small
build-up of dust or other foreign matter on the projector lens or Panamorph anamorphic lens can
degrade image quality. Clean the lens whenever you notice dust or dirt on the surface. Use a
blower brush designed for camera equipment to remove dust from the lens. To remove dirt or
smears use a lens cloth or tissue. If necessary, moisten the cloth with lens cleaner and gently
wipe the lens surface.
CAUTION
: Never rub the lens with abrasive materials. Use only lens
cleaning fluids designed for cleaning optics.
If there is any residue or build-up on the anamorphic lens then it is recommended that you clean
the optics while the anamorphic lens is in front of the lit beam of the projector. This will allow
you to quickly see both the results of cleaning and also if you are causing any damage.
