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 S-Video source to Living Room if it's usually used for watching movies, and set the Video source to Dynamic for playing video games.) Select the image source you want to adjust, then press the Color Mode button on the remote control. Choose from these settings: ■ Dynamic for projecting images with vivid color in brightly lit rooms. ■ Living Room for projecting images with vivid color under ordinary room lighting. ■ Natural for projecting in subdued lighting; increases contrast and makes flesh tones appear more natural. ■ Theatre for projecting in subdued lighting; enhances the appearance of movies with dark scenes. ■ Theatre Black for projecting in fully darkened rooms. ■ sRGB for projecting computer images that conform to the sRGB color standard. ■ Customized to apply your own Color Mode created with the RGBCMY color adjustments in Cinema Color Editor (see page 48). If you choose this setting without first creating your own Color Mode, the result is the same as selecting Natural. Note: You can fine-tune the color and other image quality settings using the projector's menu system (see page 29) or the Cinema Color Editor software (see page 41). You can also save combinations of picture settings with the Memory feature for easy recall (see page 34). 24 Choosing the Color Mode

Choosing the Color Mode
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 S-Video source to
Living Room
if it’s usually used for watching movies, and set the Video source to
Dynamic
for playing video games.)
Select the image source you want to adjust, then press the
Color Mode
button on the remote
control. Choose from these settings:
■
Dynamic
for projecting images with vivid color in brightly lit rooms.
■
Living Room
for projecting images with vivid color under ordinary room lighting.
■
Natural
for projecting in subdued lighting; increases contrast and makes flesh tones
appear more natural.
■
Theatre
for projecting in subdued lighting; enhances the appearance of movies with dark
scenes.
■
Theatre Black
for projecting in fully darkened rooms.
■
sRGB
for projecting computer images that conform to the sRGB color standard.
■
Customized
to apply your own Color Mode created with the RGBCMY color
adjustments in Cinema Color Editor (see page 48). If you choose this setting without first
creating your own Color Mode, the result is the same as selecting
Natural
.
Note:
You can fine-tune the color and other image quality settings using the projector’s menu
system (see page 29) or the Cinema Color Editor software (see page 41). You can also save
combinations of picture settings with the Memory feature for easy recall (see page 34).
