ISF Callibration

Just curious if any of you have had your t.v.'s callibrated by ISF or any other professional and if so how much did you spend and were you happy with the results.

I have my 47" Panny calibrated and I will never look back
costs vary depending on the level of services

I had my Mits done back on 2-2-02. I'm scheduled for a touch-up this July. Cost's will vary depending on how many inputs you have done and what you want done. Ballpark is around 4-500.00.

It is worth every penny. Gregg Lowen did mine.

Had mine done upon delivery as part of the extended warranty package - as welll as the more standard stuff like resetting and saving the convergence, etc. Very happy with picture quality.

You will find factory settings too hot for the most part after ISF calibration. At first blush it might seem dull compared to the wow factor of the default settings, but actually over time you will see it is more natural and lifelike.

I did a search and found my post from a year + ago on what was done to my set.

About 2:30, he began on my HD-RPTV. He spent about 3+ hours calibrating her. He did the following;

1. Removed the glare screen

2. Manuel Focus

3. Electrical Focus

4. Disconnected SVM (scan velocity modulation) wires from the circuit board

5. Set Grey Scale (computer and special software required)

6. Set Overscan

7. Tweeked the Geometry

8. Centered the image

9. Adjusted all the user settings; sharpness, color, tint, etc...

10. Lens stripping

11. Lens cleaning

12. Plus more

Peace Out~:D

Thanks for the replies guys. It sure sounds like a wise investment. Can't afford a calibration at the moment but down the road will have it done. I did buy the Sound & Vision Tune Up DVD and it did help but I'm sure it can't compare to the work of a professional.
