brilliance of the picture. Backlight cannot be adjusted 

when starting from some picture modes.

•  Brightness

 - Adjusts the black level of the picture. When 

this setting is too low, the picture may be too dark to 

distinguish details. When this setting is too high, the 

picture may appear faded or washed out.

•  Contrast

 - Adjusts the white level of the picture. When 

this setting is too low, the picture may appear dark. When 

this setting is too high, the picture may appear faded

definition) content; however, it will not produce detail that 

does not otherwise exist.
