A projector includes a measurement unit and a correction parameter generation unit. The measurement unit measures a color of image light of the image formed on a projection surface in terms of a plurality of colors constituting an RGB color system and a Z value in an XYZ color system. The correction parameter generation unit generates a correction parameter based on a first measurement value and a second measurement value. The first measurement value measured by the measurement unit is obtained by converting a measurement value of the color in the RGB color system into the color in the XYZ color system. The second measurement value measured by the measurement unit is a value in the XYZ color system. The measurement unit includes an optical filter having transmittance characteristics corresponding to spectral characteristics of blue light, in a wavelength range of a color light in the RGB color system.
