About color temperature

Color temperature is a way to show the differences in white. White of which temperature is low appears reddish.
When the color temperature rises, white appears bluish. For example, you can change the color temperature using
the following procedures.
To raise the color temperature: Increase the CONTRAST B (blue) and decrease the CONTRAST R (red).
To reduce the color temperature: Decrease the CONTRAST B (blue) and increase the CONTRAST R (red).
• If you set all of CONTRAST R, G, and B to negative values, the original brightness of the image can't be
obtained even when you maximize CONTRAST in the IMAGE menu.
