Super Mustud Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Confused? What were you reading in the mag? Someone else started reading the same article when I put it down - and then put the mag under his pile of papers. I guess those calibration illustrations just get the passions going.

Clarity Calibration Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Hi Meddi, If you would like to PM me with your subarb, I can put you in touch with a local calibrator. I get enquiries from Brisbane from time to time, but haven't had enough as yet to warrant the trip.

frankn Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 (edited) Hi Tony How well does calibration work with an older tv? For instance we have a Sony Bravia X 40" HD LCD / 100hz (about 4yrs old) which seems to be running fine so no need to change it. However we have now purchased a house in Belair so might take the time to have it set-up properly (currently renting so couldn't be bothered fixing up arial etc). I just saw the link for quotes, I'll ask about the service cost there;) Regards. Frank Edited November 8, 2013 by frankn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newer TV like Samsung plasma/LED/LCD tends to have the full calibration control suites, you can do 10 points greyscale calibration, colour management system calibration. To do the basic greyscale calibration your TV will need to have RGB-highend adjustment (known as Gain/Drive on some TV) and RGB-lowend adjustment (known as RGB bias/cut). Without these calibration control your TV will be limited to just brightness/contrast and colour intensity adjustment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarity Calibration Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 (edited) Hi Frank, I have calibrated a few Sony's around that age and despite not offering as comprehensive a calibration system as some of today's TV's (2 point greyscale and limited gamma control), they do come up nicely.
