CALIBRATION: is it worth it?

Posted by warrenh@optonline.net (A) on January 17, 2005 at 03:44:04

Put the requisite 100+ hours on my lamp and had my Samsung DLP 43 incher calibrated Saturday. Was it worth the $400? After spending over $7k for my home video system, it is easy for me to say absolutely worth every dime. If I spent only $1200 on a set it would be worth every dime, as well. Colors, blacks and whites, facial colors, the whole nine pop off the screen. My Sammy was wonderful before calibration, and I probably could have lived with it that way. Now, it's as if my set got a shot of steroids. Quite wonderful. I live in the NY area, so it was easy finding a local ISF calibrator. The guy I found, so happens to have written for many of the video journals, and has oodles of calibration experience. As new as my set is, he had done one already. Very happy with the results. peace, warren
