Advanced Color Adjustments

To further customize the color and image quality, you can adjust the gamma and individual RGBCMY color tones. (Not available when x.v.Color is selected as the Color Mode.)

RGBCMY

Gamma

Note: You can fine-tune these and other color and image quality settings using the projector’s menu system (see page 33). You can also save combinations of picture settings with the Memory feature for easy recall (see page 43). If you don’t like the settings you have selected on a particular menu screen, you can press the Default button to restore the factory settings.

Adjusting the Gamma Setting

You can select from five gamma settings (2.0 to 2.4) or customize your own setting from your image or a displayed graph. Lower values will increase the contrast of dark areas, but tend to blur the bright areas. Higher values will darken the light areas. Gamma presets make minor adjustments to mid-tone values. The larger the gamma preset, the lower the midtone values. Changing these settings affects contrast which can be seen as a blur in bright areas.
