4,000 Lumen Laser
BRIGHTNESS FOR ROOMS WITH AMBIENT LIGHT
4,000 ANSI lumens of laser-driven brightness, the threshold where you stop fighting ambient light. Garage sims with overhead fluorescents, basement bays with stair-light spill, multi-use rooms with partial blinds, all handled. Laser engine means brightness stays consistent across the 30,000-hour life.
Sim-Friendly Short Throw
120-INCH IMAGE FROM UNDER 5 FEET
0.5:1 throw ratio puts a 120-inch image at roughly 4-5 feet of throw distance. Fits low-ceiling basements, tight garage builds, and standard 8-10 ft ceiling sim rooms cleanly.
HDR10 Support
DYNAMIC RANGE FOR COURSE REALISM
HDR10 support brings out shadow detail in tree lines and accurate sky highlights, the kind of color depth that makes course renders feel three-dimensional. Combined with 4,000 lumens, this is the projector tier where sim visuals start feeling cinematic rather than gamey.
Easier Install Than You Think
MOUNT, PLUG, AND HIT IN UNDER AN HOUR
Most home sim owners install the Optoma ZH400ST themselves in 30-60 minutes. Mount it, run one HDMI cable to your gaming PC, plug in power, dial keystone, that's it. If you've installed a ceiling fan or a TV mount before, this is easier. If you'd rather not DIY, our SimSquad team walks you through the install on a call.
What is the Optoma ZH400ST?
The Optoma ZH400ST is a 4,000 lumen 1080p short-throw laser projector for premium home golf simulator rooms. Same laser engine class as the ZH350ST but with a brightness bump to handle daylight rooms, plus HDR10 support for richer course color rendering.
Why Choose the Optoma ZH400ST?
Honest framing: 4,000 lumens is the brightness tier where you stop needing blackout curtains. If your room has significant ambient light, this is the right pick over the ZH350ST. If you have a controlled dark sim room, the ZH350ST saves money. For 4K resolution at similar brightness, look at the UHZ35ST 4K.
