Also added is an Enhanced Input Menu, which enables HDR Preview Settings on HDR capable models.
A generous array of recognized input color spaces is part of the update. And a new “Appearance” menu provides control of sharpness, contrast, brightness, gamma shift, RGB gain and a new OLED gamma match.
The update also adds Backlight settings which now provide a range of brightness controls, USB support, crop tools, image flip, multi-page enhancement to allow dual input or quad input view, and enhanced focus tools. Backlight settings now provide a range of brightness controls. Plus image capture capability has been broadened.
