    Calibration charts for Mitsubishi 73" 738 3D DLP

    That's too bad. And I believe Spectracal marks them in some way so that you can't use it with ChromaPure IIRC. I really like the C5 Pro I bought from Tom. It's very accurate when compared to both my i1 and my OTC1000. That's the way that I do it - profile either the Hubble or the C5...

    Calibration charts for Mitsubishi 73" 738 3D DLP

    That's one of the changes that I'm interested in - Tom switched to a four color matrix for profiling. Profiling is a selling point to myself. It's especially nice for those of us with the more accurate, yet slower meters.

    Calibration charts for Mitsubishi 73" 738 3D DLP

    I have yet to fire up the new version of ChromaPure. I'd like to get to it this week though, just so I can see what the changes were and if I need to change anything I do. Hopefully it won't bog down like CalMAN has with age.

    Calibration charts for Mitsubishi 73" 738 3D DLP

    LOL! As someone with several meters, CalMAN 3.7, CalMAN v4, and ChromaPure Pro, I'm with you and Gregg! ;) You just see so many people talking up version 4... and then you see one of the main THX guys using 3.7... I prefer ChromaPure at this point. I still use 3.7 for spectro readings...

    Why are those pdf's labeled March 2010? And can you confirm that Gregg has not upgraded to CalMAN version 4?

    2nd baby to be ordered - DVDO iScan Duo

    elwaylite, I noticed in the other thread that you're running CalMAN 4.XX. Which version do you have and if it's the Enthusiast or higher version have you tried the interactive function with the Duo? I've found that I get better results manually than with the interactive function. I think it...

    Calibration results Panasonic 58" S2 Plasma

    That's the best you can do with a lot of sets these days - get luminance as close as possible. Some day all sets will have a full fledged cms with 0-100 grayscale/gamma adjustments. Until then you have to either live with it or get a video processor. That gamma would drive me nuts. Are...

    Gamma looks awful. No cms on this set?

    2nd baby to be ordered - DVDO iScan Duo

    I just finished up my review of the VideoEQ at the Shack. Next up is the Duo and then the Radiance. :up

    LED, Plasma, or 3-D

    I wouldn't call it an internal feeling at all. I'd call it an educated opinion. ;)

    LED, Plasma, or 3-D

    Skip 3D unless you get a big screen. It's pointless on a small screen that barely fills any of your field of view. Not to mention the artifacts, lower brightness, ridiculous glasses (and their prices), etc. It's a niche product at best. For someone with a very large screen I can see 3D...

    2nd baby to be ordered - DVDO iScan Duo

    I've been contemplating getting one of these after some hands on experience with this, two different Radiance models and the VideoEQ Pro. It was a slick unit. I was waiting until I had time to research the differences between it and the EQ Pro. I know that the EQ Pro seemed a bit more robust...

    Sony Qriocity Preview (Streaming HD VOD)

    When I get some time I'll try one out on my 52" Sony. Which movie did you try it out with?

    Hiya Jim! You're here too huh? :wave I can do quite a bit with something as large as 10x10" - gain reading, calibration readings, etc. Anything smaller I could just give you a spectro reading. Let me know if you want me to pm you my address. :up
