My set doesn't go quite that far, but it does have numerous settings  
of specific chroma, saturation and brightness settings that can be  
toggled through with the remote. The settings include sports, movies,  
vivid, normal and a few others. The movie one is higher contrast but  
darker and less saturation. Sports is bright with high contrast and  
more saturation.
