Thanks to Heidelberg for the specs sheets!

Be careful!!!! I wanted them because of the lenses before I read about the specifications. Looks like the the HDID-1200 lenses are for 100" to 130" diagonal (with 120" sweetspot), and the HDIH-2000 is for 150"-200" screens (sweetspot 200"). So their names stand for the screens sizes the lenses where made for in these days. I know some old machines with the same problem, when lenses where made for a specific screen size and curvature. Considering the low light output of these old 9" machines, screen size might be problematic in digital days - at least with the HDIH-2000
