Choosing the Color Mode

Note: When displaying 720p, 1080i, or 1080p signals through the HDMI or Component video port, the aspect ratio is automatically selected and you cannot change it.

If you display a 4:3 image using the Zoom setting, the top and bottom will be cut off. You can use the Zoom Caption Pos. option and other settings to resize and reposition the image. For details, see page 47.

For details on how the projector resizes the picture when you choose an Aspect setting, see page 67.

You can change the Color Mode to automatically adjust brightness, contrast, and color, letting you quickly optimize the projected image for various lighting environments. You can also select a different color mode for each input source—which is useful if you view different types of images from different sources. (For example, you might set the HDMI 1 source to Cinema Day or Living Room if it’s usually used for watching movies in the daytime with the blinds closed, and the PC source to Vivid or Dynamic for playing video games with the blinds open.)

Select the image source you want to adjust, then press the Color Mode control. Choose from these settings:

■Vivid (Pro Cinema 9700 UB) or Dynamic (Pro

Cinema 9350) for projecting the brightest picture available.

■Cinema Day (Pro Cinema 9700 UB) or Living

Room(Pro Cinema 9350) for watching television programs during the day.

■ THX (Pro Cinema 9700 UB) or Natural (Pro Cinema 9350) for projecting natural, accurate colors in a dimly lit room.
