I originally posted this message in Grant Smyth's review of the LP350 & LT150, but as that was becoming a long thread and as I didn't want this question to be overlooked, I thought it was worth moving to its own thread.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Grant,
I have just downloaded the user manual for the LT150 and noticed that there is a facility to set "White Segment" to either On or Off.
The manual states use the On setting for greater brightness, or the Off setting if more accurate colours are desired. Presumably this allows the projectors onboard processing to "ignore" the clear section of the colour wheel as it spins?
Have you tried both settings and if so, what difference does it make? Do you think this facility is what makes the image look so good? What is the default setting and which setting are you using?
The details are on page E42 in the download version of the manual, heading "White Segment".
The menu route is as follows:
Advanced Menu > Projector Options > Setup > Page4 > White Segment(On/Off)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Quote from Halcyon:
"Hm.. i did not notice that part of the manual but will check it out. Does anybody know if that helps the rainbows at all?"
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Good point about the rainbows Halcyon, I was only thinking of the effect this option may have had on overall contrast levels and colours, but perhaps it could reduce the visibility of rainbows too.
Over to you Grant and others who own an LT150 to test out and report back!
