Digital options
Although Natural Motion is the most ideal setting, it may be preferable to
switch back to Digital Scan and/or 100 Hz.
To make all the 4 digital options available at the same time and selectable, first
select a 4:3 picture format.

• 100 Hz = 100 Hz only (Field flicker reduction)
• Dig. Scan = 100 Hz + Dig. Scan (Field and line flicker reduction)
• Natural Motion = 100 Hz + Dig. Scan + Natural Motion (Field and line

flicker reduction and smooth movement reproduction)

• Double lines = provides for a doubling of vertical resolution which adds 

astonishing sharpness and a total absence of visible picture lines.
Motion compensation reduces jitter and offers smooth, yet sharp motion 
reproduction.

Note: if the menu item Digital options is not present, first select a 4:3 picture format

with the
