COLOR

This control (also called Saturation) increases or decreasethe

picture colour intensity. When set to zero, colour images will

be shown in black and white. Increasing the value, try to find

the point at which the colours look natural: suitable references

include skin tones and grass in landscape shots.

TINT

Controls the purity of the colours. Basically determines the

red-green ratio of the picture.

Reducing the value will boost the red contents of the picture,

increasing the value will boost the green tones. For this adjust-

ment use skin tones or a test pattern image with colour

bars as a reference.

SHARPNESS

Use this adjustment to increase and decrease the level of

picture detail.

When the sharpness value is reduced the image details ap-

pear less pronounced, while increasing the value raises image

definition, making the outline of objects sharper.

Note that an excessively high value may result in a ‘noisy’ picture

and the edges of objects may be unnaturally defined.

SHARPNESS MODE

This allows you to select the type of processing associated with

sharpness adjustment. In the case of a progressive or interlaced

video signal Video mode is advisable; with PC graphic signals

use Graphic mode.

FILTER

This allows you to select the mode in which the input signal is

processed. Selecting the most appropriate value for a given

input signal ensures the best horizontal and vertical definition

and makes the picture sharper.

CINEMA MODE

In AUTO the deinterlacer recognises if the video signal source

is a movie film (obtained from a Telecine device with 3:2 or 2:2

pull-down) and applies a deinterlace algorithm optimised for

this type of signal.

If the video signal source is not identified as a film, or if you

select NO the deinterlacer applies a Motion compensated

algorithm optimised for video camera signals.

VIDEO TYPE

Activates a filter to improve stability of pictures from video

recorders or DVD players. To toggle between Normal, VCR1

mode and VCR2 mode press

on the remote control.

NOISE REDUCTION

This adjustments allows to choose the filter value for noise

reduction purposes.

As soon as this option is selected on the menu, the image is

divided in two parts.

In the left side the image is not altered by the filter, in the right

part the filter is activated.

This allows you to compare the effect of the filter.

It is possible to deactivated the filter (NOT ACTIVE), to use the

automatic adjustments (AUTO)

or to manually select (MANUAL)

the value suitable for the image with the VALUE adjustment.

In case of using the VALUE adjustement, it is enoght to select
to cursor below and set the value with the fl / ‡ keys of the

remote control.

Associated to the NOISE REDUCTION there is the possibility to

use the specific function (FLESH TONE CORRECTION) to make skin

tone more natural. Often the use of noise reduction filter slightly

degrades the image in those areas where skin tones are visible.

With the use of this function it is possible to maintain an excellent

image quality throughout the entire projected image.
