Order of Adjustment
Color Temperature
Color Temp determines how “warm” or “cool” the colors are overall. This control adjust all the colors, including white, but does not affect the Brightness or Contrast settings. A Color Temperature of 6500K is approximately the colors you see in bright sunlight outdoors. The 3200K settings is the colors you see in incandescent light. “Native” uses the color temperature of the display itself with no adjustment.
Gamma
Gamma is a curve of the brightness and contrast that, used correctly, can improve the separation and detail in the whites and blacks. If excess ambient light washes out the image and it becomes difficult or impossible to see details in dark areas, lower the gamma setting (smaller number) to compensate. This improves contrast while maintaining good details for blacks. Conversely, if the image is washed out and unnatural, with excessive detail in black areas, increase the setting.
