Operation

ICC Adjust: Use the ICC Adjust controls to customize the stored NTSC, HDTV and/or PAL color space characteristics. To do this, select the color space to modify. Then, select a component color (Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, Cyan or Magenta).

For each component color, you can adjust the following:

•Intensity: This slidebar adjusts the intensity – also known as luminance – of a given color.

•Sat. This slidebar adjusts the color saturation level – the amount of that color in a video image. Lower settings produce less saturated colors; a setting of “0” removes that color from the image entirely. If the saturation is too high, that color will be overpowering and unrealistic.

•Hue: This slidebar adjusts the red/green color hue for true color reproduction of video signals. For best results, adjust tint while displaying an external color bars test pattern (see Figure 4-4). Otherwise, it is recommended that Hue remain at its default setting.

When you have finished customizing the color space, select Store Setting and press ENTER.

Image Over Scan: Image Over Scan pushes the outside edge of the active picture area of the video signal out beyond the edge of the display area.

Some television programs are produced based on the assumption that older television sets may not display the outer edges of the broadcast picture area. Over scan effectively trims away these inactive, outer edges and enlarges the remaining portion of the image to fill the display area.

Use the on-screen slidebar to select the desired amount of over scan.

For HDTV, DVDs and other video sources, Image Over Scan is generally not necessary or desirable.

Video Black Level: This control compensates for incoming elevated black levels present in certain video signals, and ensures that blacks in the display are neither “crushed” (where dark grays appear black) nor excessively elevated (where blacks appear dark gray). By default, the projector automatically determines the best setting according to the type of incoming video signal:

•0 IRE: Used for DVD output with “enhanced black,” SECAM, most PAL standards and Japanese NTSC.

•7.5 IRE: Used for most NTSC video signals.

For some types of video, you may want to override the setting. Generally, if black appears crushed when brightness = 30, choose “0 IRE.” If black appears excessively elevated, use “7.5 IRE.”

Aperture Control: Use the Aperture Control to increase or decrease the aperture or iris size (the physical opening through the lens; similar to an “f-stop” on a camera). Doing so allows you to optimize brightness and contrast according to the amount of ambient light in the viewing area.

Use a higher setting for rooms with lots of ambient light. Use a lower setting for more “theater-like” viewing conditions (little or no ambient light).

At the heart of the Vidikron Vision70 is its DLP (Digital Light Processing) technology. This approach utilizes a digital micromirror device to reflect light and create images, resulting in deep blacks, vibrant colors, and high contrast ratios. With a resolution of 1080p, the Vision70 delivers crisp imagery that captures even the finest details in your favorite films.

One of the standout features of the Vision70 is its remarkable brightness level, often reaching up to 2000 ANSI lumens. This ensures that the projector can perform well in varied lighting conditions, making it suitable for both dedicated home theaters and multipurpose media rooms. The lamp life, estimated to last around 3000 hours in eco mode, provides longevity and reliable performance for extended viewing sessions.

The Vision70 also boasts a wide color gamut, supporting multiple color spaces including standard REC 709 and cinema-grade DCI-P3. This enhancement translates to lifelike colors that resonate with the viewer, bringing content to life with remarkable accuracy. Additionally, the projector's dynamic iris technology further optimizes the contrast by adjusting light output in real-time according to scene demands.

For connectivity, the Vidikron Vision70 is equipped with multiple HDMI inputs, allowing users to connect various devices like Blu-ray players, gaming consoles, and streaming devices effortlessly. This ensures versatile use and that viewers can enjoy different content sources without hassle.

User convenience is a priority with the Vision70; the included remote control offers a seamless way to navigate through settings and features. Additionally, its compact design allows for relatively easy installation and setup in various environments.

In conclusion, the Vidikron Vision70 stands out in the crowded projector market with its combination of advanced DLP technology, impressive brightness, and exceptional color fidelity. Whether for movie nights, gaming, or sports viewing, the Vision70 promises an immersive and high-quality experience that caters to the needs of discerning audiences.
