Abstract
There is disclosed a video projector provided with automatic focusing function. An image is generated on a liquid crystal light valve according to the video signal, and this image is projected through a projection lens system. The aberration between the focal plane of the projection lens system and the projection surface, such as a screen, is detected, and the focal plane is shifted according to thus detected aberration, in such a manner that the focal plane coincides with the projection surface or screen.
