Optimizing the image

Using Wall Color

In the situation where you are projecting onto a colored surface such as a painted wall which may not be white, the Wall Color feature can help correct the projected picture's colors to prevent possible color difference between the source and projected pictures.

To use this function, go to the DISPLAY > Wall Color menu and press / to select a color which is closest to the color of the projection surface. There are several precalibrated colors to choose from: Light Yellow, Pink, Light Green, Blue, and Blackboard.

Selecting a picture mode

The projector is preset with several predefined picture modes so that you can choose one to suit your operating environment and input signal picture type.

To select an operation mode that suits your need, you can follow one of the following steps.

• Press Mode/Enter on the projector or remote control repeatedly until your desired mode is selected.

•Go to the PICTURE > Picture Mode menu and press / to select a desired mode.

The picture modes are listed below.

1.Dynamic mode: Maximizes the brightness of the projected image. This mode is suitable for environments where extra-high brightness is required such as using the projector in well lit rooms.

2.Presentation mode: Is designed for presentations. The brightness is emphasized in this mode.

3.sRGB mode: Maximizes the purity of RGB colors to provide true-to-life images regardless of brightness setting. It is most suitable for viewing photos taken with an sRGB compatible and properly calibrated camera, and for viewing PC graphic and drawing applications such as AutoCAD.

4.Cinema mode: Is appropriate for playing colorful movies, video clips from digital cameras or DVs for best viewing in a blackened (little light) environment.

5.User 1/User 2 mode: Recalls the settings customized based on the current available picture modes. See "Setting the User 1/User 2 mode" on page 34 for details.

The BenQ MP525 ST and MP515 ST are innovative projectors designed to deliver high-quality visuals for both educational and business environments. With a blend of advanced technologies and user-friendly features, these projectors offer exceptional performance.

Starting with the core characteristics, both models boast DLP (Digital Light Processing) technology, which ensures sharp images with vibrant colors and excellent contrast ratios. The native resolution of these projectors is XGA (1024 x 768), suitable for detailed presentations and videos. The brightness level for the MP525 ST is typically around 2500 ANSI lumens, providing sufficient illumination for well-lit environments. The MP515 ST, while slightly less bright, still delivers adequate performance for dimly lit rooms, making both models versatile for various settings.

One of the standout features of the BenQ MP525 ST is its short-throw projection capability, allowing users to display large images from a short distance. This is particularly beneficial in smaller rooms where space is limited as it minimizes shadows and enables presenters to stay close to their audience. The throw ratio is approximately 0.6:1, meaning it can project a large image within just a few feet from the screen.

Both projectors come equipped with a comprehensive connectivity suite, including HDMI, VGA, S-Video, and composite video inputs, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of devices such as laptops, DVD players, and gaming consoles. They also feature built-in speakers that deliver clear audio without the need for external sound systems, making them convenient for quick setups.

In terms of usability, the BenQ MP525 ST and MP515 ST are designed with user-friendly interfaces and remote controls. They include features like keystone correction to help adjust the image shape, ensuring perfect alignment even when the projector is angled. Additionally, the projector’s lamp life is impressive, reaching up to 4000 hours in economic mode, which reduces the need for frequent replacements and lowers operational costs.

In conclusion, the BenQ MP525 ST and MP515 ST projectors are excellent choices for educators and presenters who require flexibility, quality, and ease of use in their projection equipment. With their advanced DLP technology, short-throw capabilities, and versatile connectivity options, these models cater to diverse presentation needs while ensuring that every image is displayed with clarity and impact.
