■ 16:9 for expanding a 4:3 image to 16:9 so it fills the whole screen. This stretches only the right and left sides of the image; the central part is unchanged. If you display a 4:3 image using the Zoom setting, the top and bottom may be cut off. For details on how the projector resizes the picture when you choose an Aspect setting, see page 75. Choosing the Color Mode You can change the color mode to automatically adjust brightness, contrast, and color, letting you quickly optimize the projected image for various lighting environments. You can also select a different color mode for each input source-which is useful if you view different types of images from different sources. (For example, you might set the HDMI source to Living Room if it's usually used for watching movies in the daytime with the blinds closed, and the PC source to Dynamic for playing video games with the blinds open.) Select the image source you want to adjust, then press the Color Mode button on the remote control. Choose from these: ■ Auto automatically adjusts to the brightness of your surroundings. Color Mode button Note: Do not cover the light sensor on the top of the unit, or the Auto color mode will not work. ■ Dynamic for projecting the brightest picture available. ■ Living Room for watching television programs during the day. ■ Cinema for viewing movies in a dimly lit room. ■ Game for playing video games in a bright room. ■ Presentation (MG-850HD only) for giving presentations using color in a bright room. ■ Blackboard (MG-850HD only) allows you to project on a blackboard (green) and maintain a natural-looking tint. Note: The MG-850HD has Home Mode and Business Mode that contain different color mode options. By default, the projector is in Home Mode. To switch between these two, hold down the Color Mode button for five seconds, or until you see either Home Mode or Business Mode appear in the top, right-hand corner of the projector screen.

16:9
for expanding a 4:3 image to 16:9 so it fills the whole screen. This stretches only the
right and left sides of the image; the central part is unchanged.
If you display a 4:3 image using the Zoom setting, the top and bottom may be cut off.
For details on how the projector resizes the picture when you choose an Aspect setting,
see page 75.
Choosing the Color Mode
You can change the color mode to automatically adjust brightness, contrast, and color, letting
you quickly optimize the projected image for various lighting environments. You can also
select a different color mode for each input source—which is useful if you view different types
of images from different sources. (For example, you might set the HDMI source to
Living
Room
if it’s usually used for watching movies in the daytime with the blinds closed, and the
PC source to
Dynamic
for playing video games with the blinds open.)
Select the image source you want to adjust, then press the
Color Mode
button on the remote control. Choose from
these:
■
Auto
automatically adjusts to the brightness of your
surroundings.
Note:
Do not cover the light sensor on the top of the unit,
or the
Auto
color mode will not work.
■
Dynamic
for projecting the brightest picture available.
■
Living Room
for watching television programs during the day.
■
Cinema
for viewing movies in a dimly lit room.
■
Game
for playing video games in a bright room.
■
Presentation
(MG-850HD only) for giving presentations using color in a bright room.
■
Blackboard
(MG-850HD only) allows you to project on a blackboard (green) and
maintain a natural-looking tint.
Note:
The MG-850HD has Home Mode and Business Mode that contain different color mode
options. By default, the projector is in Home Mode. To switch between these two, hold down the
Color Mode
button for five seconds, or until you see either
Home Mode
or
Business Mode
appear in the top, right-hand corner of the projector screen.
