Adjusting Color

Highlight Color in the PICTURE menu and adjust the values by pressing / on the projector or remote control.

Lower setting produces less saturated colors. If the setting is too high, colors on the image will be overpowering, which makes the image unrealistic.

Adjusting Tint

Highlight Tint in the PICTURE menu and adjust the values by pressing / on the projector or remote control.

The higher the value, the more reddish the picture becomes. The lower the value, the more greenish the picture becomes.

Adjusting Sharpness

Highlight Sharpness in the PICTURE menu and adjust the values by pressing / on the projector or remote control.

The higher the value, the sharper the picture becomes. The lower the value, the softer the picture becomes.

Adjusting Brilliant Color

Highlight Brilliant Color in the PICTURE menu and select by pressing / on the projector or remote control.

This feature utilizes a new color-processing algorithm and system level enhancements to enable higher brightness while providing truer, more vibrant colors in picture. It enables a greater than 50% brightness increase in mid-tone images, which are common in video and natural scenes, so the projector reproduces images in realistic and true colors. If you prefer images with that quality, select On. If you don’t need it, select Off.

On is the default and recommended selection for this projector. When Off is selected, the Color Temperature function is not available.

Selecting a Color Temperature

Highlight Color Temperature in the PICTURE menu and adjust the values by pressing / on the projector or remote control.

The options available for color temperature* settings vary according to the signal type selected.

1.T1: With the highest color temperature, T1 makes the image appear the most bluish white than other settings.

2.T2: Makes images appear bluish white.

3.T3: Maintains normal colorings for white.

4.T4: Makes images appear reddish white.

*About color temperatures:

There are many different shades that are considered to be "white" for various purposes. One of the common methods of representing white color is known as the “color temperature”. A white color with a low color temperature appears to be reddish white. A white color with a high color temperature appears to have more blue in it.

3D Color Management

In most installation situations, color management will not be necessary, such as in classroom, meeting room, or lounge room situations where lights remain on, or where building external windows allow daylight into the room.
