The following options are available in the Picture menu:
1. Ambient Light Sensor –This feature allows adjusting the
backlight level accordingly to the amount surrounding
ambient lightening. It is default to Off. When activated,
adjustment of the Backlight is not available.
2. Picture Mode - Select Home, Movie, Retail, Game,
Custom .
3. Backlight – Backlight adjusts the overall brilliance of the
picture. It does not affect the Brightness (black level) or
Contrast (white level) of the picture. If DCR or Ambient
Light Sensor is activated, backlight adjustment is not
available.
4. Brightness – This option adjusts the black levels in the
picture. If the brightness is too low you will not be able to
see the detail in darker parts of the picture and if the
brightness is too high the picture will look washed out.
5. Contrast – This option adjusts the white levels in the
picture. If the contrast is too low the picture will look washed out and if the contrast is too high you
will not be able to see any detail in the bright parts of a picture.
6. Color – This option will help the overall color saturation of
the image being displayed on the screen.
7. Tint – This option adjusts the hue of the picture. The
easiest way to set hue is to look at flesh tones and adjust for
a realistic appearance. In most cases, the default middle
position is correct.
8. Sharpness – This option setting adjusts the sharpness of
the edges of elements in the picture. It does not produce
detail that otherwise does not exist. This adjustment is
helpful when viewing SD (Standard Definition) sources, as it
provides only contour peaking, and should be at a low
setting with HD sources.
9. Noise Reduction – This option diminishes picture
artifacts caused by the digitizing of moving images, the
settings being Off, Low, Medium and High.
10. Color Temperature – Color Temperature is the
“warmness” or “coolness” of the white areas of the picture.

Custom allows adjusting the Red, Green, and Blue color levels.
11. Color Enhancement – This option enhances the white levels in the picture.
12. Adaptive Luma – Large areas of brightness in the picture will result in a higher Average
Picture Level (APL) and the overall picture will look too light. This option will lower the
APL to counteract this effect.
13. DCR (Dynamic Contrast Ratio) - DCR (Dynamic Contrast Ratio) automatically adjusts the
contrast between brighter and darker scenes. When activated, adjustment of the Backlight is not
available.
14. Reset Picture – This option allows the user to reset any changed value in the Picture
menu to the factory value without altering other menu settings.
