All I know is my metre wont read 0ire on my screen its too dark for it, but it would read 0ire on my Kuro - means nothing but I take a bit from it.

I hope they sorted the black levels issue.
If you meter can't read 0ire off you panny panal doesn't that mean the panny can't create blacks as dark as the Kuro or is that what you meant? That is the reason the Kuros were/are so good because they can produce the darkest blacks.

Hi Dave.
I have no doubt elisdj would do a top job calibrating my Kuro. I just don't have the money and currently my room is not quite how I want it. I will also wait till my wife and I can buy ourselves a house so I don't have to fork out to have calibration done again. Even though it is worth doing every few years like a top up to make sure it's still set right.
Personally for best picture without calibration on any TV the picture setting should be "Standard" or "Neutral" Yes Movie mode does tend to look over blown and soft just like Dynamic has stupidly hi contrast.
Unfortunately people generally don't realise or are uneducated that a TV picture should look like real life (unless it's been colour graded for mood). They see the picture in the shops and go "oh that looks really clear and HD" forgetting or unaware the shops lights are distorting their view and they are looking at a high contrast picture to compensate for the light and th sharpness up high to give the impression of more detail.
I'm sure you knew this and its good to know you got your TV calibrated and have been educated when you swapped between the 2 different settings. I will join the club one day and look forward to it with anticipation.

Yeah I guess tha could be the case that TVs these days produce darker blacks than the Kuros. Theres no reason why not. I would like to think all the other TV manufacturers have finally caugt up with the Kuro range.
Its kind of a shame Plasma TVs have come to an end.
I hope they sorted the black levels issue.

The other way around it cant read it because its darker than the metre will read - so it appears 0ire is deeper black on my 65VT65 than on my 5090.
The HD TV Test reviews put them at insignificantly the same black levels.
