Picture modes for different types of signals
The picture modes available for different types of signals are listed below.
PC input signals: D-Sub / Comp. (analog RGB)
1. Brightest mode (Default): Maximizes the brightness of the projected image.
This mode is suitable for environments where extra-high brightness is
required, such as using the projector in well lit rooms.
2. Presentation mode: Is designed for presentations. The brightness is
emphasized in this mode to match PC and notebook coloring.
3. Photo mode: Maximizes the purity of RGB colors to provide true-to-life
images regardless of brightness setting. It is most suitable for viewing photos
taken with an sRGB compatible and properly calibrated camera, and for
viewing PC graphic and drawing applications such as AutoCAD.
4. Cinema mode: Is appropriate for playing colorful movies, video clips from
digital cameras or DVs through the PC input for best viewing in a blackened
(little light) environment.
5. User 1/User 2 mode: Recalls the settings customized based on the current
available picture modes. See "Setting the User 1/User 2 mode" on page 29 for
details.
Video input signals: S-Video, Video, D-Sub / Comp. (YPbPr)
1. Brightest mode: Is suitable for playing gamebox-based video games in a
normal living room lighting level environment.
2. Standard mode (Default): Is appropriate for viewing colorful movies, video
clips from digital cameras or DVs.
3. Cinema mode: Is suitable for enjoying dark movies or DVD movies best
viewed in a blackened (little light) home cinema or lounge room environment.
