vincent,

The true cinema mode has the most accurate colours.

The greyscale however is not perfect. Nor is it in any mode. Its most accurate in true cinema mode. To correct the yellowish tint u would need to go into the service menu and adjust white balance to further improve.

Dynamic mode has a colour temperature of about 10K. This means that the whites are really blue tinted. Cinema (Warm) is close to 6500K, TrueCinema is closest to 6500K

BTW, the 60s was known for green tinted. The True Cinema shd not send the colour to the sixties era as its the most accurate. Anything else has a wide gamut colour that is really not close to reference. Sharpness is a mix bag. If u view only HD material, I would suggest anywhere from 0 - 20. If u watch a  lot of SD stuff, then u would need to bump up the sharpness to above 30 - 50.

There is reference and there is preference.

My comment was that if u want to bring ur display close to reference use TrueCinema, if u do not like it, its ur display, u can select whatever u feel u like.

anfieldude,

Need your help to clarify. Suppose I set True Cinema & Normal with the same settings (the settings available in the Menu), will the PQ be the same ?

From what I gather from reading this, even with the same menu settings, the PQ will be different as the settings (not available to the lay-person) have been pre-set at the factory and they are different. Right ?

Thanks.

What about V20K ? Got a Samsung C5500, still can't get it to play BD ISO though a friend here has stated some success with his C5500. Guess it is the file type behind the ISO layer.

How can I find out what the new firmware update can support ? Nothing much on this in Pany website.

Thanks.l
