DNR: Use the or button to adjust the Digital Noise Reduction (DNR). DNR is useful
for clearing up noisy images from interlaced SD sources. Adjust as desired, keeping in
mind that reducing noise (which reduces high frequencies) may also soften the image.
Set UpTo access advanced picture quality adjustments, use the up- or down-arrow keys to
highlight Set Up and press ENTER. Use the number buttons on the remote to enter the
Set Up menu passcode when prompted and press ENTER again. Then, press MENU on
the remote control.
White Balance: To remove any trace of color from the white areas of the projected
image, choose White Balance from the Set Up menu and press ENTER.
• Gamma: “Gamma” is a global setting that determines how gray shades are displayed
between minimum input (black) and maximum input (white) for all signals. A good
gamma setting helps to optimize blacks and whites while ensuring smooth transitions
for the “in-between” values utilized in other grays. Unlike “Brightness” and “Contrast”
controls, the overall tone of your images can be lightened or darkened without
changing the extremes and all images will be more vibrant while still showing good
detail in dark areas.
In all but the most unusual situations, the appropriate “Gamma Selection” (see below)
will produce accurate colors and a satisfying contrast level. However, it is sometimes
necessary to adjust the red, blue and green gamma curves individually. To do this,
select Gamma from the White Balance sub-menu and use the left- and right-arrow
buttons to manipulate the on-screen slidebars.
•Gain: Use the Gain controls to correct color imbalances in the bright areas of the
image. A good way to do this is to use a test pattern consisting mostly of solid white
areas, such as an 80 IRE “window” pattern. If the white areas contain traces of red,
green or blue, decrease the Gain for that color.
•Offset: Use the Offset controls in the White Balance sub-menu to correct color
imbalances in the dark areas of the image. A good way to do this is to use a test
pattern consisting mostly of dark gray areas, such as a 30 IRE “window” pattern. If the
gray areas contain traces of red, green or blue, decrease the Offset for that color.
• Store Custom 1/Store Custom 2: When you are finished adjusting the Gamma, Gain
and Offset, select Store Custom 1 or Store Custom 2 to store your settings. To recall
them, set the Color Temperature to Custom 1 or Custom 2 in the Image Adjustment
menu (refer to
Picture Adjustment on page 46).
