Description
Optoma ZK810TST – Professional 4K UHD Short Throw DuraCore Laser Projector
Exceptional brightness. Spectacular 4K detail. Professional projection without compromise.
The Optoma ZK810TST is a powerful professional 4K UHD laser projector engineered for demanding large-screen installations.
Combining 8,500 ISO lumens of brightness, true 4K UHD resolution and a short-throw projection lens, the ZK810TST produces impressive large-format images while allowing greater flexibility in projector positioning.
With Optoma’s DuraCore laser technology, an IP5X dust-resistant optical engine, motorised lens adjustment and extensive professional control connections, it is an excellent solution for commercial AV, simulation, immersive experiences and premium residential projection projects.
True 4K UHD Resolution
The ZK810TST delivers 3840 × 2160 UHD resolution, reproducing approximately 8.3 million pixels on screen.
This provides excellent detail for:
- High-resolution video presentations
- Immersive visual installations
- Large-screen entertainment
- Simulation environments
- Detailed graphics and digital content
- Premium projection systems
Powerful 8,500-Lumen Brightness
With 8,500 ISO lumens and a separately specified 7,200 ANSI lumens, the ZK810TST is designed for demanding environments where conventional home cinema projectors may not provide sufficient light output.
Its high brightness makes it particularly suitable for large screens, commercial spaces and applications with some ambient light.
Actual image performance depends on screen size, screen gain, ambient lighting and installation conditions.
Short Throw Projection
The ZK810TST incorporates a short-throw lens with a throw ratio of 0.65:1–0.75:1.
This allows large images to be projected from relatively short distances.
For example, a 3-metre-wide image requires an approximate lens-to-screen throw distance of 1.95–2.25 metres, subject to final installation geometry.
This makes the projector particularly attractive for golf simulators, immersive rooms and spaces where projector placement is restricted.
DuraCore Laser Technology
Optoma’s DuraCore laser light source provides up to 30,000 hours of operation under the manufacturer’s specified conditions.
Benefits include:
- Long light-source life
- Reduced routine maintenance
- Consistent projection performance
- Fast laser operation
- No conventional replacement projection lamp
- Suitability for demanding professional applications
HDR10 and HLG Compatibility
The ZK810TST accepts HDR10 and Hybrid Log Gamma (HLG) video signals.
These formats can provide improved tonal detail and visual depth when correctly configured with compatible content and sources.
Motorised Lens Adjustment
Professional installation flexibility is enhanced by:
- 1.15x motorised optical zoom
- Motorised focus
- Motorised vertical and horizontal lens shift
- Four-corner image correction
- Horizontal and vertical keystone correction
These functions simplify alignment and help installers achieve precise image positioning.
IP5X Dust-Resistant Optical Engine
The independently tested IP5X optical engine is designed to resist dust ingress, supporting reliable performance in demanding installations.
Combined with DuraCore laser technology, this helps reduce maintenance requirements.
24/7 Professional Operation
The ZK810TST supports continuous 24/7 operation and flexible 360-degree installation.
Portrait projection is also supported, making it suitable for specialist display and digital signage applications.
Installation must follow Optoma’s mounting, cooling and ventilation requirements.
HDBaseT and Professional Connectivity
The ZK810TST provides extensive connectivity for commercial and residential AV systems.
Connections include:
- Two HDMI 2.0 inputs
- HDMI 2.0 output
- HDBaseT 4K connection
- RJ45 LAN control
- RS-232 control
- 12V trigger
- Wired remote connection
- 3D synchronisation input and output
- USB-A power output
- USB-B service connection
- 3.5mm audio output
This makes it suitable for professionally managed installations using compatible AV control and distribution systems.
Built-In Stereo Audio
Two integrated 10W speakers provide a combined 20W of sound output.
For premium home cinema or commercial sound reinforcement, Riverside Audio Visual recommends a dedicated external audio system.
Ideal Applications
The Optoma ZK810TST is particularly suitable for:
- Commercial AV installations
- Golf simulator rooms
- Immersive projection environments
- Museums and exhibitions
- Education and lecture theatres
- Conference and presentation facilities
- Houses of worship
- Large-scale entertainment spaces
- Premium residential projection installations
- Specialist simulation environments
