Panasonic TC-P55VT60 Calibration and Picture Settings (TC-P60VT60, TC-P65VT60)
3D Plasma HDTV Viera Connect Smart TV
VT60 Calibration Notes: VT60 has a 10 point white balance and a 10 point Gamma setting adjustment to allow for Gain adjustment. These are to be expected on a plasma TV of this level and they work wonders for the color balancing. Colors are already fantastic on Panasonic plasmas, they are even better after dialing in these settings. Leave all the color detail adjustment set to zero.
