What is Optical Zoom?
Optical zoom refers to the ability of a lens system to change the focal length and magnification of an image without degrading its quality. Unlike digital zoom, which simply enlarges a portion of the image, optical zoom maintains clarity and detail throughout the zoom range. This is achieved by physically adjusting the position of lens elements to change the focal length.

1. Flexibility: Optical zoom gives users the flexibility to adjust the size of the projected image to suit their viewing environment. Whether you're watching movies in a small living room or hosting a backyard movie night, the XGIMI HORIZON Ultra can accommodate different screen sizes with ease.
