Samsung LN46C750 Picture Settings, Calibration and Test Results

  Review Specifications Calibration  

 

Calibration: The 55C650 was very calibration friendly without going into the service menu. In fact, from the movie mode setting, there were only minor tweaks needed here and there to close in on D6500K. There is an ample array of calibration controls including white balance and noise reduction. The standard setting continues to have a major blue push. The Movie setting allows adjustment of all picture setting options and brings the picture to life.

HQV Video Board Processing Tests

The internal processing chip sets for the C750 series LCDs are very good. One of the first things we noticed during testing was hose crisp and clean edges were without adding unwanted edge enhancement artifacts. The Sharpness control should be kept low between 10 and 20. Using it at a higher level with produce nasty edge glow artifacts.
