JUST (just)

The picture is enlarged slightly at the center and the amount of enlargement increases horizontally to the ends, enabling you to enjoy a 4:3 picture without sensing any disparity even on a wide screen.

CINEMA (cinema)

The picture is enlarged by the same proportion as FULL or ZOOM in the horizontal direction and by an intermediate proportion between FULL and ZOOM in the vertical direction; ideal for a cine- ma-sized picture (wide screen picture) where cap- tions lie outside.

ZOOM (zoom)

A 4:3 picture is enlarged in the same proportion both vertically and horizontally; ideal for a cine- ma-sized picture (wide screen picture).

NORMAL (normal)

A 4:3 picture is displayed as it is, giving you no sense of disparity since its proportions are the same as that of the normal picture.
