Panasonic ET-DLE035

Overview

The Panasonic ET-DLE035 is a fixed-focus ultra-short throw projector lens designed to work with select Panasonic 1-Chip DLP projectors. Featuring a 5.3 mm focal length and a bright f/2.0 aperture, it allows the projector to be placed just inches from the screen while producing a wide image with a throw ratio between 0.380:1 and 0.399:1. This makes it an excellent solution for environments where space is limited but a large, immersive display is needed.

This lens is well suited for venues such as retail windows, museums, trade shows, classrooms, and conference rooms where keeping the projector out of the way is important. Its manual focus and lens shift adjustments provide precise image alignment without relying on motorized components, which simplifies maintenance and enhances reliability.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
