ABSTRACT:
A projection apparatus includes a distance measuring unit that measures a distance to a screen on which an image is to be projected; a projection unit that has a zoom mechanism unit capable of changing a zoom magnification of a projection image, executes focusing based on the distance measured by the distance measuring unit and projects an image on the screen; and an elevation angle control unit that controls an elevation angle of the distance measuring unit based on the zoom magnification set by the zoom mechanism unit in such a way that a distance measuring center line of the distance measuring unit corresponds to a center point of a projection area of the projection image, wherein the center point of a projection area is determined according to the zoom magnification of the zoom mechanism unit.
