About This Original Lens
The ET-C1W500 is a standard throw lens manufactured by Panasonic as an original part. Its optical structure, lens coatings, and body tolerances are all matched to original machine standards, ensuring plug-and-play installation and stable imaging. For installation environments with limited projection distance (e.g., short-distance large images, wall-mounted ultra-short throw), choosing the correct throw ratio is more critical than selecting a generic lens.
This lens has a throw ratio of 0.940-1.39:1. Throw ratio = projection distance ÷ image width: a smaller value produces a larger image (ideal for short distances in small spaces), while a larger value requires a greater installation distance. Calculate the required throw ratio range based on your installation distance and screen size, then match it to this model.

FAQ
Q: How do I choose between an original lens and a replacement lens?
A: Original lenses are manufactured by Panasonic, with optical parameters and body tolerances calibrated to original machine standards, ideal for projects requiring strict OEM consistency. Zorsika replacement lenses are independently designed and manufactured to the same specifications, with throw ratio, image circle, and mount matched to the original, offering advantages in budget and lead time. Zorsika supplies both options; choose based on your project requirements.
Q: How can I confirm this lens works with my projector?
A: Compatibility is determined by the unit's lens mount and panel/chip size; this article lists verified compatible models. Projectors of the same generation and brand often share mounts; if unsure, photograph the unit's nameplate and send it to Zorsika technical support for confirmation.
Q: How do I choose the throw ratio?
A: Throw ratio = projection distance ÷ image width. A smaller value produces a larger image (short-throw/ultra-short-throw suits close-range small spaces), while a larger value requires more installation distance. Calculate the required throw ratio range based on installation distance and screen size, then match it to this model's focal range.
Q: How is the ET-C1W500 guaranteed to be genuine?
A: Zorsika supplies genuine products through OEM channels, with original packaging and traceable serial numbers; bulk projects can request channel documentation to ensure the units are not refurbished or second-hand disassembled parts.
Q: What should I pay attention to when replacing the lens?
A: Before removal, power off the projector and wait for the cooling fan to stop; hold the lens barrel without touching the glass, use a blower for dust; after installation, test focus before tightening the locking screws, and clean the mount and contacts as you go.
Q: How long is the lens warranty?
A: Zorsika provides a 12-month warranty on all projector lenses; for normal use and non-man-made damage (e.g., impact, water ingress, unauthorized disassembly), contact after-sales service directly. The warranty period is based on the shipping document date.
