Use any of the following slidebars,
pull-down lists or the checkbox to
alter your image. Refer to "Using
Slidebars and Other Controls" (earlier
in this section) if you need help in
selecting options and adjustments.
Changes made to the Image Settings
menu are applied immediately and are
saved when you exit the menu (press
Exit
or

Contrast
(
SHORT CUT:
Press
Cont and adjust the
slidebar.)
“Contrast” increases or decreases the
perceived difference between light
and dark areas of your image (0-100).
If contrast is set too high, the light
parts of the image lose detail and
clarity. If set too low, the light areas
will not be as bright as they could be
and the image will be dim. Start low
and increase so that whites remain bright but are not distorted or tinted, and that light
areas do not become white (i.e., are “crushed”). For best results, keep close to 50.
NOTE: If environment lighting changes, it may be necessary to re-adjust both
options.
Brightness
(
SHORT CUT:
Press
Bright
an
d adjust the slidebar.)
“Brightness” increases or decreases the amount of black in the image (0-100). Start
high and decrease so that dark areas do not become black (i.e., are “crushed”).
Conversely, high brightness changes black to dark gray, causing washed-out images.
For best results, keep close to 50.

Detail
(

is as sharp as desired, keeping in mind that any increase in detail above 3 (default)
will also introduce a certain degree of noise in the image. Set below 3 to filter the
signal and remove noise from a noisy source. Keep at 3 to apply no detail.
