Default TV Pictu What Does "Calibration" Mean???

And this is where colorimeter-based calibration comes
in. By adjusting the bias/gain, and the RGBs, you can
compensate for any backlight flaws and maintain
correct color gamut.


"Serious. 10k color temp looks bad on a good monitor, and that temp is even
far exceeded by cheap displays. "

So given that, and your first quoted statement
above, would you still keep the OOB settings
on a consumer display, or would you at least
attempt to get the basic settings closer to
standardized positions?
