Our take on the Optoma 4K400STx Short Throw Golf Simulator Projector

The Optoma 4K400STx is a true 4K UHD (3840x2160) short-throw projector built for golf simulators and other tight rooms. Its 0.5:1 throw ratio fills a 10 ft x 7 ft 6 in 4:3 screen from about 6 ft 8 in, and 4,000 lumens keeps the image usable with lights on. A dedicated Golf Sim picture mode, HDR10/HLG, four-corner keystone and 4.0 ms input lag at 1080p/240Hz set it apart from standard home-theater projectors. It suits simulator owners and bright-room users more than cinephiles who want deep blacks.

About the Optoma 4K400STx Short Throw Golf Simulator Projector

The Optoma 4K400STx is a short-throw projector made for golf simulators. It has true 4K UHD resolution (3840x2160, 8.3 million pixels) and outputs 4,000 lumens. A dedicated Golf Sim picture mode renders greens and blues with strong detail, even with the lights on.

The fixed 0.5:1 throw ratio fills a 10 ft x 7 ft 6 in 4:3 screen from about 6 ft 8 in away, and an 8 x 6 ft 4:3 screen from about 5.3 ft. It supports screens up to 300 inches. A 116% vertical offset and four-corner keystone correction of plus/minus 40 degrees, both horizontal and vertical, allow flexible placement when mounting is imperfect.

Input lag is 4.0 ms at 1080p/240Hz. The projector supports HDR10 and HLG and has a 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio. It has dual HDMI 2.0 inputs, S/PDIF optical audio and a 12V trigger.

Questions and answers

Is the Optoma 4K400STx good for a golf simulator?
Yes. Its 0.5:1 short throw fills a 10 ft x 7 ft 6 in 4:3 screen from about 6 ft 8 in, and the Golf Sim picture mode is tuned for course colors. 4,000 lumens keeps the image visible with lights on.
Does it need a special screen?
It works with standard matte white or gray screens. A short-throw-friendly screen avoids hot spots, and the 4:3 format matches most simulator enclosures.
What is the input lag?
Optoma rates it at 4.0 ms at 1080p/240Hz, among the fastest of any projector. That matters for golf launch monitors and gaming.
Does it support HDR?
Yes, it handles HDR10 and HLG. True 4K resolution means 8.3 million pixels on screen.
What connections does it have?
Dual HDMI 2.0 inputs, S/PDIF optical audio and a 12V trigger. That covers a launch monitor, a media player and an external sound system.
How is it different from a home-theater projector?
It trades some black-level depth for brightness and a short throw. If your room is dark and cinema is the priority, a standard-throw home-theater model fits better.
