Is professional ISF calibration worth it?
I have a Panasonic GT30 and was wondering if it would be worth it to get an ISF pro to calibrate it. I know bestbuy has the service but have read that they do a crappy job and that I should get someone who is on a tour. I have a red green color deficiency so I have trouble seeing them in patterns. I am not colorblind to them mind you I just can't see them in those number pattern things. Or should I just get the Spears & Munsil blu-ray calibration disk. Is professional ISF calibration a rip off?

I had Lyon AV professionally calibrate my television.
They did an excellent job, I had them do my friends TV also and he still thinks Vivid mode looks better

Because of my TV lacking some of the controls the cal disc needed, I was never able to completely cal mine. But my wife is happy, so..........

Do not use best buy. That is not worth it. I had my 60" pioneer kuro calibrated by one of the well known members of Avs forum and the difference is amazing. That being said it does take a little getting use to if you ate used to watching the fake bright colors in a vivid like mode. Now I cringe at this type of mode.
