brilliance of the picture. This option is not available unless Ambient 

Light Sensor is set to Off.

Brightness

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

low, the picture may appear faded or washed out. If the setting is 

too high or too low, detail may be difficult to distinguish in dark or 

bright areas of the picture.

Color

 - Adjusts the intensity of the picture colors. 

Tint

 - Adjusts the hue of the picture. This setting is useful in 

adjusting the flesh tones in the picture. If flesh appears too orange, 

reduce the level of color before adjusting tint.

Sharpness

 - Adjusts the edge sharpness of picture elements. It can 

be used to sharpen non-HD (high definition) content; however, it will 
not produce detail that does not otherwise exist.
