Functions for Enhancing Projection
This section explains how to use the functions for adjusting the picture quality to the optimum quality.
Description of Functions
White Level Adjustment
Adjusts the brightness of bright shades without changing the black level.
Use the "Image" - "Picture Quality" - "Input Adjustment" - "White Level/Black Level" - "White Level" menu item to change the setting. (p.30)
Brightness
When adjusted to the + side
When adjusted to the - side
Input signal
If adjusted to the + side, the luminosity of light scenes increases and contrast become clearer, but differences in light tones are reduced.
If adjusted to the - side, differences in light areas become more distinct, but contrast is reduced.
Black Level Adjustment
Adjusts the brightness of dark shades without changing the white level.
Use the "Image" - "Picture Quality" - "Input Adjustment" - "White Level/Black Level" - "Black Level" menu item to change the setting. (p.30)
Brightness
When adjusted to the + side
When adjusted to the - side
Input signal
If adjusted to the + side, the luminosity of dark scenes increases and different tones become clearer, but contrast is reduced.
If adjusted to the - side, the brightness of dark shades is reduced and images with greater contrast are obtained, but differences in dark areas become less distinct.
Input Level Adjustment
Adjusts the overall brightness of the images.
When the setting is changed to the + side, the images appear brighter overall.
Use the "Image" - "Picture Quality" - "Input Adjustment" - "Input Level/Contrast" - "Input Level" menu item to change the setting. (p.30)
Contrast Adjustment
Adjusts the difference between bright and dark areas.
When the contrast is increased, sharper images are obtained.
Use the "Image" - "Picture Quality" - "Input Adjustment" - "Input Level/Contrast" - "Contrast" menu item to change the setting. (p.30)
