Default Panny TCP42X1 Calibration Help

Got my Panny TCP42X1 this morning and it is all set up. Can anyone tell me what needs to be calibrated if anything on this unit?

I have heard talk about color calibrating and would like to tweek this
unit if possible.

Thanks!

Mary

You should buy a calibration disc to adjust everything for not only your individual panel but also for the lighting in your room.

As starter settings you can check my "SETTINGS" link in my signature to help you have a good base to work with and I also have some break in info there as well.

Hope this helps!

Amazon.com. There are several available, Digital Video Essentials and Avia are the two best unless you have a Blu-ray player then you would want the Spears and Munsil.
