SHARPNESS adjusts the amount of high-frequency detail in the image. This can be adjusted to the   preference 

of the user. Keep in mind that when SHARPNESS is decreased, fine details in the image will become ‘soft’; when 

it is increased, fine details will become sharper but will also make the picture appear ‘noisy’ if adjusted too high.

All the picture adjustments (contrast, brightness, color, tint and sharpness) must be saved manually to Custom 1 

or Custom 2 under ISF presets menu. If not, all the picture adjustments will be whited out when ISF presets (ISF 

Night, ISF Day, Custom 1, Custom 2) are changed.
