Contrast. Contrast adjusts the ratio between white and black signal levels and is effective as a gain control. The difference between this and the Brightness control is that this adjusts the difference between the brightest and darkest part of the image. Note that all displays have a maximum white level. Going beyond this level only “clips” the upper gray levels and you will lose color resolution at the brighter levels. Adjust this control up until you see the brighter levels of the image begin to wash out. At this point, back it down just below that point. The default setting is 0 (midrange).
