The adjustments shown below change in the following order.

intensity.

between the light and dark parts of the picture.

•The COLOR, TINT, BRIGHTNESS, and CONTRAST settings
can be adjusted from —9 to 4-9 using the ◄ and ► Buttons.
•The level of SHARPNESS can be set to L (Low), M (Medium),
or H (High) using the ◄ and ► Buttons.
• For PC Card input, follow the same
procedure shown above.
• If it is necessary to re-adjust the picture
quality, start over from Step 1.
•The picture will not be displayed in black and
white even if COLOR is set to —9.
•Adjusting SHARPNESS has no effect on
television picture quality.
• Images are stored in the PC Card without the
setting adjustments made to the picture
quality.
When using video input, one of the most
important factors in printing images of high
quality is skillful video camera work. When
printing, it is recommended that you use an S-
VIDEO IN Socket for best results. When
shooting a scene from a Video Camera, keep
the following points in mind.
•If at all possible, shoot with the light source at
your back.
•When shooting a scene outdoors that
includes motion, either put the Video Camera
into “sports mode” or, if the camera is
equipped with an electronic shutter function,
set it to about 1/500. Doing so will allow you
to print images without blurring,
•When shooting indoors, make sure that there
is enough illumination.
