Guys,

Just got myself a 50" FHD plasma & am doing break-in. I'm trying to gather info on how to calibrate the tv later when i've reached say, 100h of playing break-in images.

Do I really need to purchase the calibration tools like mentioned by TS in the 1st page or can I just play certain images with series of colors like how to calibrate a PC monitor?

Your reply is very much appreciated, cheers

Thanks for the reply, that pretty much answer what I want to know.

Hmm, so I guess that brings me to another question, which method is more economical for calibration, 1) to get someone to do it or 2) to purchase the kit to DIY calibration?

I assume the latter method is for someone who wants to learn to calibrate themselves & probably gonna need to reuse the kit for 2nd, or 3rd or etc times which would then be more cost efficient, yes?

How much will the damage be to get someone to calibrate it? Will I still need to calibrate it later, as in when the tv (plasma) ages?

The problem with DIY kit is there is no gurantee a colorimeter will be accurate unless you can profile against a spectrometer. If you have few displays and had the time and money to invest in DIY calibration, then in the long run it would be economical.

But if you don't want to spend time to study on calibration then I would get someone with the skill and equipment to do it. You know who to contact, right?
