Choosing the Color Mode

You can change the Color Mode to automatically adjust brightness, contrast, and color, letting you quickly optimize the projected image for various lighting environments. You can also select a different color mode for each input source—which is useful if you view different types of images from different sources. (For example, you might set the source to Living Room if it’s usually used for watching movies in the daytime with the blinds closed, and set the source to Dynamic for playing video games with the blinds open.)

Select the image source you want to adjust, then press the Color Mode control. Choose from these settings:

■Dynamic for projecting the brightest picture available.

■ Living Room for watching movies during the day.

■ Natural for projecting the most natural, accurate colors.

When you select the Natural, Theatre, Theatre Black 1, Theatre Black 2, or sRGB Color Mode setting, the built-in Epson Cinema Filter automatically increases the contrast and naturalizes projected skin tones.
