The following options are available in the Picture menu:

1. Ambient Light Sensor –This feature allows adjusting the

backlight level accordingly to the amount surrounding ambient

lightening. It is default to Off. When activated, adjustment of

the Backlight is not available.

2. Picture Mode - Select Home, Movie, Retail, Game, Custom.

3. Backlight – Backlight adjusts the overall brilliance of the

picture. It does not affect the Brightness (black level) or

Contrast (white level) of the picture. If DCR or Ambient Light

Sensor is activated, backlight adjustment is not available.

4. Brightness – This option adjusts the black levels in the

picture. If the brightness is too low you will not be able to see

the detail in darker parts of the picture and if the brightness is

too high the picture will look washed out.

5. Contrast – This option adjusts the white levels in the picture.

If the contrast is too low the picture will look washed out and if

the contrast is too high you will not be able to see any detail in

the bright parts of a picture.

6. Color – This option will help the overall color saturation of the image being displayed on the

screen.

7. Tint – This option adjusts the hue of the picture. The easiest way to set hue is to look at flesh

tones and adjust for a realistic appearance. In most cases, the default middle position is correct.

8. Sharpness – This option setting adjusts the sharpness of

the edges of elements in the picture. It does not produce

detail that otherwise does not exist. This adjustment is helpful

when viewing SD (Standard Definition) sources, as it

provides only contour peaking, and should be at a low setting

with HD sources.

9. Noise Reduction – This option diminishes picture

artifacts caused by the digitizing of moving images, the

settings being Off, Low, Medium and High.

10. Color Temperature – Color Temperature is the

“warmness” or “coolness” of the white areas of the picture.

Adjust your HDTV color temperature preferences: Cool, PC,

Normal and Custom are the choices. Custom allows

adjusting the Red, Green, and Blue color levels.

11. Color Enhancement – This option enhances the white

levels in the picture.

12. Adaptive Luma – Large areas of brightness in the

picture will result in a higher Average Picture Level (APL) and the overall picture will look

too light. This option will lower the APL to counteract this effect.

13. DCR (Dynamic Contrast Ratio) - DCR (Dynamic Contrast Ratio) automatically adjusts the

contrast between brighter and darker scenes. When activated, adjustment of the Backlight is not

available.
