Overview

The Epson ELPLW05 (V12H004W05) is a wide-throw zoom lens engineered for Epson's professional projector lines, including the PowerLite Pro G7XXX series and select Pro L-series models such as the L1500 and L1505. With a zoom ratio of 1.0x to 1.4x and throw ratios that allow large images from relatively short distances, this lens is ideally suited for auditoriums, houses of worship, conference centers, and classrooms where rear projection depth is limited but screen size requirements are demanding.

The lens integrates seamlessly with Epson's interchangeable lens mount system, allowing AV technicians to swap it in or out without tools — a significant advantage in rental, staging, and multi-use environments. The optical design delivers edge-to-edge sharpness and color accuracy consistent with Epson's professional imaging standards. It is important to note that this lens is explicitly not compatible with the Pro L25000, so buyers should confirm their projector model before purchasing.
