setting to your desired conditions is the Custom mode. The
other modes, with the exception of the Pro-Day and Pro-Night
(refer to Calibration Menu page 30 for adjusting these modes),
are preset and any changes made to these modes will be
applied to Custom mode.

NOTE

For the PC input there are only two Picture modes

•

available Standard and Custom. In this case
only Custom can be changed

to your desired

conditions

Video Setting can be set to the user’s preference

•

in Game mode (Similar to Custom mode) with the
exception of, the Auto Movie setting.
If you change any of the adjustments in the Dynamic,

•

Standard and Movie modes , the name of the
Custom option will change. For example changes
on Dynamic will rename the option as “Custom-
Dyn”. This means that the original picture mode is
not affected by the changes; the only thing is that
Custom mode will take the video adjustments of the
mode where the change was made.

“PRO Mode” designed to customize the picture settings and
