Bright, super-crisp images come naturally in any space with the Optoma UHZ36ST short throw projector.

Versatile, premium quality short throw projector
Packing DuraCore laser technology and 4K HDR resolution the Optoma UHZ36ST delivers bright, detailed and truly lifelike images, at scale. What’s more, with its short throw projection a large image can be easily achieved in any space. Perfect for movies, sports and gaming, this projector is a versatile performer.

Short Throw – ideal for any room
With many projectors requiring a throw distance of several metres, a big image simply isn’t possible in many rooms. Thanks to its short throw projection, the Optoma UHZ36ST is a much more flexible option. For a mighty 100 inch image, the projector requires a distance of just over a metre from the wall, making it ideal for big screen entertainment, even in the smallest spaces.

Suitable for daytime viewing
With its vibrant 3500 lumens brightness, the Optoma UHZ36ST makes an ideal projector for anytime viewing. Perfect for daytime home office work, sports events, gaming or simply an afternoon movie, this projector’s excellent brightness means that you don’t have to close the curtains or blinds and turn the lights off for a bright, detailed picture.

High-performing and long-lasting laser technology
Optoma’s DuraCore laser tech is responsible for not only the high brightness but also exceptional contrast and colour performance. The dynamic contrast ratio of 500,000:1 creates lifelike light/dark balance, as well as exceptional colour realism. Other advantages of laser power over traditional bulbs are an improved lifespan (up to 30,000 hours), reduced power consumption (45% down on Optoma lamp-based projectors) and a more consistent performance over its lifetime.

HDR10 and HLG for enhanced detail
Compatible with HDR10 and HLG formats, the UHZ36ST gets the best from your movies, games and TV. HDR enhances the brightest and darkest sections of scenes – letting you see detail in what was previously a solid block of colour. It also makes the rest of the colour spectrum appear more natural, giving an even greater sense of ‘being there’.

UHD 4K resolution for superb clarity
Making the most of HDR compatibility is UHD 4K resolution. Projecting at this resolution gives detail and realism that's impossible to achieve with conventional Full HD resolution. UHD 4K resolution is four times greater than the more conventional 1920 x 1080 Full HD projectors and it's a difference you can easily see on a large projection screen. Astonishing detail and the sharpest definition make this the perfect projector for UHD 4K viewing.

Control app
Introducing Optoma’s SmartApp for Android and iOS, you can now take control of the projector from your smartphone. Use the app, instead of a connected PC, to make adjustments such as power on/off, volume, display modes and more.

Geared for gaming
Game at FHD (1080p) resolution and enjoy 240Hz for super-smooth motion and an input lag of 15.2ms. There’s also support for 4K 60Hz gaming at 24.7ms. This gives you swift responses and a gaming advantage when it comes to all types of action play. This projector also works as the projector in a golf simulator set-up. See our gaming category for enclosures and other accessories.
