Verdict

The Canon LV-8235 UST is a discontinued ultra-short-throw DLP business projector that features a native WXGA (1280 x 800) resolution and an 16:10 aspect ratio. It delivers a brightness of 2,500 ANSI lumens and a 2000:1 contrast ratio, capable of projecting an 80-inch image from just 32cm away. Key pros include its space-saving 0.19:1 throw ratio, 3D-ready capabilities via frame sequential display, and a powerful built-in 10W speaker. However, notable cons include a relatively obvious rainbow effect in video playback due to its single-chip DLP design, lack of optical zoom, and a standard lamp life of 2,000 to 3,000 hours.
