First Claim
1. A projecting apparatus with a shooting function, comprising:
- a projecting section that projects a projection light representing an image onto a screen;
a camera section that shoots the screen on which the projection light is projected;
an image converting section that converts image information to the projection light;
a position adjustable projection optical section that projects the projection light converted by the image converting section onto the screen;
an imaging section that images the image represented by the projection light projected on the screen that is shot by the camera section;
a position adjustable imaging optical section that image-forms an optical image imaged by the imaging section; and
a control section which stores data associated with a position of the projection optical section in a direction of an optical axis thereof and corresponding data associated with a position of the imaging optical section in a direction of an optical axis thereof, and which controls a position of the imaging optical section in synchronization with a position of the projection optical section based on the stored data.

Abstract
After power is turned on, a control section causes a distance detecting section to detect a distance up to a screen, and controls focus positions of a projector lens and an imaging lens in synchronization with each other based on the detected distance (projection distance and subject distance) and an initialized zoom ratio. Moreover, when a change operation in angle of view is executed by a user in a user control apparatus, the control section changes a zoom ratio of the projector lens according to the user'"'"'s operation and changes a zoom ratio of the imaging lens to correspond to the zoom ratio of the projector lens. The control section controls the zoom ratio and the focus position of the imaging lens in synchronization with setting of the zoom ratio and the focus position of the projector lens.
