PICTURE ADJUSTMENTS
CONTRAST: Increases the white level of the image. This should normally be set approximately mid-
range. If this is increased too high, you may notice 'blooming', where the brightest areas of the image
may bloom together causing a loss of definition in bright scenes. If contrast is set too low, the picture
will be less bright and dull.
BRIGHTNESS: Increases the black level of the image. If this is set too high, the image will appear
'washed-out', where there are no real 'blacks' in the image. If set too low, there will be a significant
loss of definition in the dark areas of the image.
COLOR: Used only if Component, S-Video or Composite video is input to the projector. This increas-
es the overall amount of color in the image. If too much color is used, colors will be over saturated
and the image will not look realistic. Too little color will make the image look dull and lifeless.
HUE (Tint): Used only if Component, S-Video or Composite video is input to the projector. This
changes the overall 'feel' of the image to either redder or greener.
SHARPNESS: Used only if S-video or Composite video is input to the projector (will not function in
RGB or Component). This increases or decreases the amount of high-frequency information in the
image. If increased too high, the picture will appear noisy; if adjusted too low, the image will be soft.
