white (i.e., “crushed”). Conversely, low contrast causes dim images. See 3.5,
Adjusting the Image (Image Settings subsection).
Gamma
NOTE: This is the same as “Gamma” in the Image Settings Menu. “Gamma”
determines what gray shades are displayed between minimum input (black) and
maximum input (white) for a given amount of signal. The proper setting helps
maintain optimized blacks and whites while ensuring a smooth transition for the “in-
between” values utilized in colors and grays. Thus, unlike brightness and contrast
settings controls, the overall tone of an image can be lightened or darkened without
changing the two extremes, and your images will be more vibrant yet with good detail
in dark areas.
The normal gamma setting of 2.5 is correct for most signals and conditions. If excess
ambient light washes out the image and it becomes difficult or impossible to see
details in dark areas, lower the gamma setting to compensate. This will improve
contrast ratio while maintaining good details for blacks.
