Abstract
A fluorescent substance is irradiated with laser light and emits illumination light of a prescribed color. A condenser lens collects the illumination light. A moving mechanism moves the fluorescent substance in a direction toward the condenser lens and in a direction away from the condenser lens. An image display element generates image light by modulating the illumination light according to an image. A light quantity adjustment mechanism adjusts the quantity of the image light by changing the size of an opening through which the illumination light or the image light passes in order to adjust the contrast of a projected image. A controller controls the moving mechanism such that the distance between the fluorescent substance and the condenser lens is a distance in association with an F-number corresponding to the adjustment state of the quantity of the image light implemented by means of the light quantity adjustment mechanism.
