Ambient Light

In general, minimize or eliminate light sources directed at the screen. Contrast ratio in your

images will be noticeably reduced if light directly strikes the screen, such as when a shaft of

 

light from a window or floodlight falls on the image. Images may then appear washed out

 

and less vibrant.
