Image adjustment
This section describes image quality settings such as brightness, contrast, and sharpness.

Menu screen when the input signal is HDMI


Menus that are not available are grayed out or hidden.
* Any adjustments you make are stored for each combination of input signal and image mode.


Image mode

Select the overall image quality for projected images. Can also be selected by pressing the IMAGE button on the remote control

Menus that are not available are grayed out or hidden.

You can adjust the image quality by adjusting the following items in each image mode:
[Brightness], [Contrast], [Sharpness], [Gamma], [Color adjustment], [Advanced adjustment], and [Lamp mode]


Create profile
Save desired image quality settings in up to five user profiles.

• The saved settings are [Brightness], [Contrast], [Sharpness], [Gamma], [Color adjustment], [Advanced adjustment], and [Lamp mode].
• The image mode name which was the basis for the settings change is also saved in the user profile. When a user profile is selected as the image mode, the image mode that was the basis for that user profile is displayed in the menu as [Baseline image mode].

Brightness
Adjust image brightness.


Contrast
Sharpen or soften image contrast.


Sharpness
Adjust image sharpness.


Gamma
Correct image areas that are too dark or too bright to see clearly.


Color adjustment
Adjust color-related settings such as color level, color balance, and color temperature.




In [DICOM SIM] image mode, [Color temperature] is not adjusted with numeric values but set to one of the following five presets.
Preset 1: Prioritize brightness, relative to DICOM Standard Part 14.
Preset 2: Prioritize color tone, relative to DICOM Standard Part 14.
Preset 3: Adjust color to conform to DICOM Standard Part 14.
Preset 4: Reproduce colors of X-ray film (Clear base).
Preset 5: Reproduce colors of X-ray film (Blue base).


Advanced adjustment
Fine-tune noise reduction and color tone.



Ambient light
Minimize the effect of ambient light on the screen.

[Ambient light] is available when the image mode is [Photo/sRGB]


Random noise reduction
Reduce random image noise*.
* Effective on noise with an irregular frequency or amplitude.

• Select [Low] for fast-moving images or [High] for slow-moving images.
• This setting is not displayed for LAN or USB input.

MPEG noise reduction
Reduce MPEG image noise*.
* Block noise resembles pixelation and may affect either on JPEG images or in MPEG video.

This setting is not displayed for LAN or USB input.


Mosquito noise reduction
Reduce mosquito noise*.
* A type of noise affecting image edges or areas where colors change significantly, either on JPEG images or in MPEG video.

This setting is not displayed for HDMI, HDBaseT, DisplayPort, Digital PC, Analog PC-1, Analog PC-2, or Component input signals.

Dynamic gamma
You can adjust the gradation representation of light and dark portions of an image automatically.


Colorimetry
Select the input color space.

[Colorimetry] can only be set when the image mode is [Video].


Mem. color correct
Enhances skin tones, blue skies, and greens, so that these colors are more consistent with people’s remembered impressions


6-axis color adjust
Fine-tune RGB (red, green, blue) and CMY (cyan, magenta, yellow) hues in images.


Fine-Tune Gamma
Adjust white, red, green, and blue gamma curves. Red, green, and blue can be adjusted separately. Adjustments to white are also applied to the three other colors. Note that adjusting any color will overwrite previous adjustments.
Adjustment values can also be saved or loaded by selecting [Save/Load]. 
Use the buttons to select a color, and then press the OK button. 
Next use the buttons to select a point on the gamma curve, and then use the buttons to adjust the position of the point. When adjustment is finished, press the OK button to confirm the setting.

• [Fine-Tune Gamma] is available in image modes other than [DICOM SIM].
• For details on gamma correction, see “Gamma” 
• Use input signals or a test pattern for adjustment.
• Adjustment is not applied to the projected menu itself.
• Up to five adjustment values can be saved.

Lamp control
Dims the lamp automatically when the input signal is completely black.

• The projector automatically enters standby mode if the lamp is dimmed (that is, if the input signal is fully black) for more than one hour. A countdown window is displayed 10 minutes before entering standby.
• The lamp is not dimmed when projection is blanked, when no signals are supplied, or when black is projected during gamma restore.
• Lamp control is not available for the following settings:

- In split-screen mode
- During test pattern projection
- When [Lamp mode] is set to [Power saver 1] or [Power saver 2]
- When [High altitude] is set to [On]

• No lamp control is performed in the first 20 minutes after the projector is turned on.

• All image adjustments are stored as modified settings for the current input signal and image mode.
• Resolution may seem lower with [Random noise reduction], [MPEG noise reduction], or [Mosquito noise reduction].

Lamp mode
Reducing the lamp brightness reduces power consumption and cooling fan noise.



Reset
Restore the current image quality settings to the factory defaults.

• Performing reset when [Image mode] is set to a profile from [User 1] to [User 5] will restore the settings originally saved for that user profile.
• Only the setting for the combination of input signal and image mode for the current projection is reset.

Image priority
Select which side image adjustment settings to apply in split-screen mode.

• Can be independently configured
Brightness, Contrast, Gamma, Color adjustment, Fine-Tune Gamma
• [Primary] setting also applies to [Secondary]
Image mode, Advanced adjustment except Fine-Tune Gamma, Lamp mode
