When I tried these settings I noticed a really organic, natural-looking image, one that offered me some surprizes. This set happens to be inherently capable of showing a more-than-generous quantity of color saturation while not downside. I personally like an image that is simply slightly undersaturated, if something (but, I expect this set can accomodate anyone's style on that score, if yours are totally different than mine). With all this, what I found was that even when slightly undersaturated and that i felt the image was indeed realistic-looking, whenever a strangely colourful object was displayed (like a very vivid piece of clothing, or a brightly flourescent color - like some NASCAR colours, for example),
this TV displayed each the less intense colours of the additional mundane objects, and therefore the most decidedly vivid ones, equally well within the same scene AT an equivalent TIME - never subduing the foremost vivid colours even when the color level looked 'properly' undersaturated to me on the additional everyday objects. Nor was it unnaturally emphasizing them, for that matter. The result was a TV that, on any sensible, HiDef, cable feed, frequently showed me a surprisingly wide (yet natural-looking) "dynamic range" of color intensity within the pictures.
In the end, I did favor to deviate from the settings higher than, however solely with respect to overall contrast/brightness and color level settings, everything else was an equivalent. This gave me an appreciable gain in distinction that suits me and my family's tastes in our well lighted, daytime front room. Plasma is sometimes not as vivid within the distinction department as most LCD's or LED's, however within the mid-price vary ($1,000-$1,500 retail) it is a little worth on behalf of me to procure an image that I feel (with adjustment) is otherwise decidedly sharper, clearer, additional life-like and dimensional than anything for the cash. i have not felt that any comparative lack of overall distinction has resulted in any buyer's remorse on behalf of me in the slightest degree, as no such notion has however remotely entered my head anytime I've watched it.
