If "Natural", "Theatre", "Theatre Black" or "sRGB" is selected, the Epson Cinema Filter will be applied
automatically. This increases contrast and makes flesh tones appear more natural. In addition, if
"Dynamic" or "Living Room" is selected, the Black-White Stretch function will operate to produce
images with greater contrast between lighter and darker shades.

Input signals will be
projected at the same
width as the projector's
panel resolution.
Black bands will
appear at the left and
right of the images.
Input signals will be
projected at the same
height as the projector's
panel resolution.
Input signals will be
projected at the same
height as the projector's
panel resolution. At this
time, the image
enlargement ratio will be
smaller near the middle of
the images but become
larger towards the left and
right edges of the images.
This is useful for when 4:3
images are projected onto a
wide ascreen. Because there is
almost no distortion due to
enlargement in the middle of
the images, the images appear
close to what they would be at
their original size. And because
both ends of the images are
enlarged, movement at the
edges of the images appears
faster and gives an impression
of greater speed, making it ideal
for viewing sporting events.
*"Wide" cannot be selected if
keystone correction has been
carried out.
When 4:3 images are
projected, the top and
bottom of the images
will be truncated.
When images with
subtitles are projected
and the subtitles are
truncated, use the
"Zoom Caption" menu
command to adjust.

When 4:3 images are
projected, the images
will be elongated
horizontally.
To project images so that they fill the whole of the
screen, use the zoom adjustment or move the
projector further away from the screen.

When the input signal resolution is 1280 × 720 or
less and "Through" or "Squeeze Through" is
selected, the images are projected onto the screen
with the input signal resolution unchanged, and so
clearer images are projected.
