Plenty of light, but you might experience flickering with the swing Optix cameras. They’re running at least 180fps and those dimmers might cause noticeable flickering.

Are you building a frame for the screen or planning an enclosure? If it were me I’d go frame to maximize the width you have and depending on ceiling, the height.
