Yeah you just have to calibrate it with your windows 7. Look it up on YouTube if you have to or google.

Kathy, What is the TV model number? From that we can look up the lamp to make sure you get the right unit.

Hi Alex,That does mean that it can be calibrated. We also have a video to walk you through the process see it here. http://youtu.be/uN5Xrm3CPEw

Like Chris Clayton said: You most likely need a digital TV converter box. If your TV is past 10 years old. This is an old thread but perhaps it will help someone else. A Digital converter box costs $30-$40 dollars.

Hello - so sorry, I actually bought the TV as a gift for my cousin - so no clue how to do anything on it.

You can install it on any number of computer screens. Not sure whether or not it can calibrate TVs. Interesting point though. I'll have to look into it.

It's very simple. Contact the factory, ship it to them, they ship it back. If they can't calibrate it they replace it. Each meter has a calibration date specific to that model.

They only give you enough for a one time calibration. You will need to buy the appropriate storage solution. A little goes a long way.

A professional calibration refers to the adjustments that a professional technician performs on your particular set (usually via appointment to your particular viewing room in your house). A qualified technician should be certified by the Imaging Science Foundation (a.k.a. ISF) to make the adjustments. A professional calibration really includes to main parts: 1) An assessment of your TV's picture parameters (brightness, contrast, color temperature (at different light levels), etc.) 2) The adjustment process (usually through a hidden service menu only accessible by the technician) Most TVs in the market can benefit to some degree, especially with respect to color temperature adjustments. Whether you consider a calibration necessary depends on whether you are a casual user or a user who wants see the most accurate picture possible with your particular TV. That said, TVs that are made with a THX certification generally do not (the THX logo should appear somewhere on the set) need professional calibrations because you simply need to enter a user menu and switch to a THX Cinema viewing mode. From this mode, you have the option of making your own minor user adjustments for the specific Blu-Ray player connected to your TV set using a Blu-Ray video calibration disc (the industry standard is the Spears & Munsil Blu-Ray disc). Brands that produce THX-certified models include Panasonic (ZT & VT models), LG, and Sharp (Elite models).

The default settings on this TV were nearly spot on. However, people get their TVs professionally calibrated for a reason. I for one, would rather use Cnet's or someone's post calibration settings then adjust for my lighting. Get a new HDMI standard cable. You won't regret this TV purchase! Enjoy..

Yes. Basically, you set your monitor to the factory defaults. Then you follow the calibration instructions. When done you can view a report with all the info about the new settings.

I believe you can if you have physical buttons on your monitor to change the settings. If it's through software through your computer I don't believe so because the calabration program is running

I have purchased both P65ZT60(brand new) and P65VT60(2000+ hrs display model) and applied calibration settings available on the internet to both of them(identical settings). End results were identical images on both tv. I custom tweaked it a little on contrast and brightness to give it inky black and extra kick. But you should be fine copying professional calibrations available on the internet.(or use the one I just posted on the Amazon).

I don't think so. I know you have to calibrate it yourself but it's very easy.

I don't think you can calibrate it. I haven't seen anything on the device or the app that lets you do it. Myself and 3 other people I know use it on a regular basis and have never had this issue. You might have a defective unit.
