LG PJ350 Series Calibration Settings

Picture Calibration:

There is considerable and inconsistent color shift at varying brightness levels in the PJ350 plasma TV as shown in this shot of a split gray scale during calibration. The color shift will show up during viewing content especially in light and white content.

For an inexpensive plasma offering, there are extensive calibration control options. One of the most important tips we can give you about this TV is to turn the Sharpness control down to between 10 and 20%. Higher Sharpness increases false edges and motion artifacts with this TV. The fix is easy and has no side effects.
