Dynamic Contrast Drive and Black Detail High/Mid/Low:
Dynamic contrast drive adapts backlight luminance to suit the scene, achieving a 1,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio. Total balance of highlights and low lights can be confirmed at a glance. Due to the mechanism of LCD panels, backlight leaking from the panel surface is unavoidable. Black Detail mode provides more accurate monitoring of black details in dark, low-APL (average picture level) images.
