Panasonic Viera TC-P50G10 Plasma Review
Overview Review Specifications Calibration |
Calibration Notes: The Panasonic TC-P50G10 is more limited than a TV of this price point should be in calibration controls. There are no white balance adjustments available on the menu without entering the ervice menu. The stock THX setting that this plasma contains is not far off the D65 target, but measured too low in brightness. Since the THX settings are not adjustable we started with the Custom Picture Setting. It was relatively easy given the limited options to dial the G10 in to D6500. Follow these picture settings to get there. These settings are best to view the TV in a controlled light environment fairly dark room:
