Bright/Natural Modes
Bright and Natural modes are available for some settings
and allow you to optimize the image for a brighter
(daytime) or dimmer (nighttime) viewing environment. To
do this, your TV remembers two independent Contrast,
Brightness, and Color Temperature settings, one for each
of the two modes. Whenever you change settings for
Contrast, Brightness, or Color Temperature, first check
which of the two modes (Bright/Natural) is active.
◊ Contrast (Bright/Natural)
Provides a slider to adjust the white-to-black level.
Low contrast shows a variety of shades in darker
images, while high contrast shows darker images
more uniformly black and makes colors appear more
vibrant. In most home lighting situations, a medium
contrast looks best. High contrast is good for
brightly lit environments.
◊ Brightness (Bright/Natural)
Provides a slider to adjust the overall brightness of
the picture.
◊ Color
Provides a slider to adjust the color intensity.
◊ Tint
Provides a slider to adjust the ratio of red to green.
◊ Sharpness
Provides a slider to adjust the detail and clarity.
◊ Color Temp (Bright/Natural)
Allows you to adjust how white images are displayed.
Your choices are:
• Low: White images will have a warm cast to them.
This adjustment is an average and can vary due
to ambient room lighting, video scene brightness,
and the TV’s age. Natural/Color Temp at the
low setting displays video at the 6500K industry
standard for NTSC pictures.
• High: White images will have a cool cast to them.
This setting may provide the most realistic picture
under bright lighting.
◊ PerfectColor™
Adjusts any or all of six colors (Magenta, Red, Yellow,
Green, Cyan and Blue) to create color balance.
When you select PerfectColor and press ENTER,
you can adjust the colors automatically or manually
(individually).
Individual sliders for each color are displayed.
Highlighted text shows which slider you are
adjusting. Each TV input or device has a memory for
PerfectColor. While using the PerfectColor option,
press CANCEL if you want to reset the colors to the
default settings.
◊ Video Noise
Use to reduce minor noise (graininess) in the
broadcast received on Ant-1 and Ant-2, Inputs
1–3, Component 1–3, and HDMI 1 and 2. Use the
Standard setting with good-quality signals.
NOTE: A slider displays on screen for most settings.
When the slider is displayed, it represents numeric
values, with 63 as the maximum, 31 as the mid-point,
and 0 as the minimum.
◊ DeepField™ Imager
When On is selected, the black levels are dynamically
enhanced in portions of the screen to provide strong
contrast with detail over mixed screen content.
When Off is selected, the entire screen adjusts the
contrast the same. When Demo is selected, a split
screen picture appears and you can see how the
picture will look when DeepField Imager is On (right
side) or when it is Off (left side).
◊ SharpEdge™
When ON is selected, special edge sharpness
enhancements are applied to the vertical edges of
images.
