When “Correction Value” is set to “Import”
By selecting “Import” for “Correction Value”, the gamma data created externally can be selected as the base setting value for adjustment.
The factory setting for “Import” is “2.2”.
You can use the calibration software to customize the gamma data adjustment, and import the created gamma data.
For details, contact your authorized dealer.
Gamma Adjustment
When the gamma curve is a straight line:
The brightness and contrast of the video input will be the same as that of the video output.
Area for which the gamma curve is above the straight line (A):
Video output appears brighter than the input.
Area for which the gamma curve is below the straight line (B):
Video output appears darker than the input.
Area for which the slope of the gamma curve is steep (midtone) (C):
The grayscale range of the video output becomes wider, and the contrast increases (DD’).
Using Tone Map Manually during HDR Signal Input
“HDR(PQ)” gamma is the PQ curve adopted by HDR10. Fine adjustments can be made according to the screen size and environment although the default settings for viewing with the projector have been adjusted to allow optimum viewing.
Set “Picture Mode” to “HDR 1” or “HDR 2”.
Picture tone adjustment method
When Picture Tone is set to “-” Screen becomes brighter in the course of viewing |
When Picture Tone is set to “+” Screen becomes darker in the course of viewing |
Bright/dark area adjustment method
(―) To enhance the contrast |
(+) To make the dark area information more visible |
(―) To enhance the gradation of highlight areas |
(+) To enhance the contrast |
For users seeking to obtain a gamma curve that is more faithful to the original PQ curve
This unit has been adjusted to display the projector images on the screen in the optimal quality in the default setting based on the original PQ curve. For users who wish to obtain results more faithful to the original PQ curve, please adjust manually with reference to the values below.
Set “Picture Mode” to “HDR 1” or “HDR 2”.
