Choosing the Color Mode

Page 28 highlights

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 with the curtains closed, and set the Video source to Dynamic for playing video games in the daytime with them open.) 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. Color Mode button ■ Theatre for projecting in a dark room. ■ Theatre Black 1 or 2 for projecting in completely dark rooms. Theatre Black 1 projects in cool, clear tones; Theatre Black 2 projects in a warmer tone. ■ sRGB for projecting computer images that conform to the sRGB color standard. When you select the Natural, Theatre, or sRGB Color Mode setting, the built-in Epson Cinema Filter automatically increases the contrast and naturalizes projected skin tones. 28 Making Basic Adjustments

Making Basic Adjustments
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 with the curtains closed, and set the
Video source to
Dynamic
for playing video games in the daytime with them open.)
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 a dark room.
Theatre Black 1
or
2
for projecting in completely dark
rooms.
Theatre Black 1
projects in cool, clear tones;
Theatre Black 2
projects in a warmer tone.
sRGB
for projecting computer images that conform to the sRGB color standard.
When you select the
Natural
,
Theatre
, or
sRGB
