Contrast - Contrast is the difference in brightness between lightest and darkest tones in a picture. A picture with too much contrast has highlights (lighter tones) that are too bright and no detail and shadow areas that are too black. A picture with too little contrast looks dull, with no true blacks and more grayish highlights. Different water clarities coupled with the amount of light available will affect the contrast. Adjust the contrast to the desired setting for the best overall picture.

Brightness - Use the brightness adjustment to change the overall brightness of a picture. You can lighten a picture that's too dark, or darken one that's too light. Different lighting conditions and water clarity will affect the brightness of the picture. By adjusting the brightness, the backlight of the monitor will increase making the picture brighter. This can be helpful when viewing the VS820 outdoors during daylight hours Adjusting the brightness can make the monitor easier to see.

Sharpness - Sharpness is the amount of high-frequency detail in the image. Adjust the sharpness according to personal preference. (note: increasing the contrast can give an impression of increased sharpness, so try this first).

Color - Increasing the color saturation with a black and white monitor will increase the darkness of the blacks and make the picture look darker overall. Decreasing the color saturation will make the blacks and darker colors look washed out and gray.
