19 Basic Operations Adjusting the Image Quality This selects the ratio between the height and width of the projected images. If the input signal includes aspect ratio information, the projectors automatic mode will detect this information and use it to automatically change the aspect ratio to the optimum ratio. • •• •Automatic mode can only be set when signals are being input to the VIDEO, S VIDEO, D4 or HDMI port. When such signals are projected in automatic mode, the projector switches to the optimum aspect ratio depending on the signal as shown below. • •• •For 4:3 input signals → Normal • •• •For input signals recorded in squeeze mode→ Squeeze • •• •For letterbox input signals → Zoom * If the connected equipment is not EIAJ-compliant, the signals will be projected in Normal mode. The default settings for each connection port are as follows. • •• •VIDEO, S VIDEO, D4 and HDMI ports→ Auto • •• •INPUT A and INPUT B ports → Normal 1 Press the [ASPECT] button on the projectors control panel or the button on the remote control. The select (Resize) menu will be displayed. 2Select the aspect mode. If using the projectors control panel, press the or button to select the aspect Mode, and press the button to confirm the selection.

Adjusting the Image Quality 20 Details of each aspect ratio are as follows. Normal mode Squeeze mode Zoom mode The aspect ratio of the images being input is maintained, and the images are projected into a 16:9 screen area. If projecting images in 4:3 mode such as normal TV broadcasts and computer images, black bands will be displayed at the left and right as shown in the illustration at left. 4:3 image If projecting HDTV images, they will be projected in 16:9 format. HDTV images This is used when projecting images that have been recorded in squeeze mode using a video camera or DVD recorder. When viewing images recorded in squeeze format on a 4:3 TV, the images will compressed in the horizontal direction and elongated vertically. If squeeze mode is selected for the projector, the images can be projected in their original wide format (16:9). When projecting 4:3 TV images recorded in squeeze modeViewed using the projector 4:3 imageWhen the projectors squeeze mode is applied When images output in 4:3 format are projected using the projectors squeeze mode, the images will be extended horizontally and the image will appear elongated. Letterbox images Resized to 16:9 Images in letterbox mode from equipment such as a DVD player will be cut at top and bottom by a fixed amount and resized to 16:9 format. If this causes captions to be truncated from images that have them, use the Zoom Caption menu command to adjust. (p.33) LPX-510_E.book Page 20 Wednesday, January 21, 2004 10:58 AM
21 Basic Operations Adjusting the Image Quality Smart Zoom mode Through mode Squeeze Through mode 4:3 image Images in 4:3 format such as normal TV broadcasts are extended horizontally, with less elongation in the middle and more elongation at the edges. This is useful for when 4:3 images are projected onto a wide screen. Because there is almost no distortion due to enlargement in the middle of the images, the images appear close to what they would be at their original size. And because both ends of the images are enlarged, movement at the edges of the images appears faster and gives an impression of greater speed, making it ideal for viewing sporting events. *If keystone correction has been carried out, Smart Zoom mode cannot be selected. If the input signal resolution is 1280 x 720 dots or less, the images are projected onto the screen with the input signal resolution unchanged. Because of this, the size of the displayed images will change depending on the input resolution. The picture quality will be the clearest for portions of the image that have not been resized horizontally or vertically. If the input signal resolution is 1280 x 720 dots or less, the input signal resolution is elongated horizontally and the images are projected at an aspect ratio of 16:9. Because of this, the size of the displayed images will change depending on the input resolution. The portions that are not vertically resized will appear with higher image quality.

24 Functions for Enhancing Projection This section explains how to use the functions for adjusting the picture quality to the optimum quality. Adjusts the brightness of bright shades without changing the black level. Use the Image - Picture Quality - Input Adjustment - White Level/Black Level - White Level menu item to change the setting. (p.30) If adjusted to the + side, the luminosity of light scenes increases and contrast become clearer, but differences in light tones are reduced. If adjusted to the - side, differences in light areas become more distinct, but contrast is reduced. Adjusts the brightness of dark shades without changing the white level. Use the Image - Picture Quality - Input Adjustment - White Level/Black Level - Black Level menu item to change the setting. (p.30) If adjusted to the + side, the luminosity of dark scenes increases and different tones become clearer, but contrast is reduced. If adjusted to the - side, the brightness of dark shades is reduced and images with greater contrast are obtained, but differences in dark areas become less distinct. Adjusts the overall brightness of the images. When the setting is changed to the + side, the images appear brighter overall. Use the Image - Picture Quality - Input Adjustment - Input Level/Contrast - Input Level menu item to change the setting. (p.30) Adjusts the difference between bright and dark areas. When the contrast is increased, sharper images are obtained. Use the Image - Picture Quality - Input Adjustment - Input Level/Contrast - Contrast menu item to change the setting.

Advanced Operations 25 Functions for Enhancing Projection The absolute color temperature adjusts the tint of the whole image. Flesh tone adjustment adjusts the color of flesh tones to the desired color. Use the Image - Color Adjustment - Abs. Color Temp. and Flesh Tone menu items to change the settings. (p.31) • •• •Abs. Color Temp. If you select a higher value, images appear bluish, and if you select a lower value, images appear reddish. The absolute color temperature can be set to one of 12 settings within the range of 5000K to 10000K. • •• •Adjusting flesh tones The CB (color balance) Filter will be applied automatically so that flesh tones will appear in natural tints in accordance with the Picture Mode setting. If you would like to adjust the flesh tones to your own preference, use the Flesh Tone setting to adjust. If a large value is set, flesh tones appear greenish, and if a smaller value is set, flesh tones appear purplish. The image brightness can be adjusted by adjusting the individual R (red), G (green) and B (blue) components of the dark areas (offset), bright areas (gain) and intermediate areas (gamma) respectively. Because such detailed adjustments are possible, images with greater depth can be obtained. (p.31) Absolute Color Temperature and Flesh Tone Adjustment RGB adjustment To make dark areas appear more clearly, adjust to the + side. If adjusted to the – side, the whole image will become sharper, but the contrast for dark areas will become poorer.If you would like bright areas to appear more clearly, change the setting to the – side. If you change it to the + side, bright areas will become whiter, but the contrast will become poorer.If the setting is changed to the – side, smoother images can be obtained. If the setting is changed to the + side, sharper images can be obtained.
