mode: Maximizes the brightness of the projected image. This mode is
suitable for environments where extra-high brightness is required, such as using
the projector in well lit rooms.

(Default): Is designed for presentations. The brightness is
emphasized in this mode.

Vivid mode: This is suitable for displaying colorful video and pictures with well-
balanced color saturation and high color brightness

regardless of brightness setting. It is most suitable for viewing photos taken with
an sRGB compatible and properly calibrated camera, and for viewing PC graphic
and drawing applications such as AutoCAD.

cameras or DVs through the PC input for best viewing in a blackened (little light)
environment.
