Sharp LC-C4067UN AQUOS 1920 x 1080 Full HD 1080p LCD HDTV Review

Hi,

This TV is by no means perfect, but I think it’s good value for 1080p. I was a bit paranoid about the TV being 60Hz vs 120Hz, but have found no major issues. I have the TV about 4 weeks and have watched football, ice hockey, track and field and a few blue ray movies on a PS3 and saw no major problems. The film mode in the advanced menu also seems to handle the 3:2 pull down of cable 1080i HD movies very well, so this option should be switched on (see below). 480i also looks pretty good after calibration.

On to calibration.

Out of the box, the settings are not optimal (are they ever). For calibration, I followed a guide from CurtPalme, henceforth known as “Kal’s Guide”.

This guide helps you to adjust grayscale and color to get a professional grade calibration. To use Kal’s Guide, you need:

1. The ColorHCFR software (free download).
2. An external color meter.I used Eye-One Display 2 (I’m a serious
amateur photographer and already owned it for computer
monitor calibration).
3. A calibration DVD; Digital Video Essentials-HD Basics,
(I used the Blue Ray version), OR, AVS HD 709 calibration disk (free download).

The AVS HD 709 software is burned on a regular DVD but you need a Blue Ray player to play it. Note, if you use this, you need to identify the correct greyscale patterns yourself.

This TV has no RGB adjustments for brightness or contrast (called RGBLowEnd and RGBHighEnd in Kal’s Guide, sometimes known as RGB bias and RGB gain), so this portion of the grayscale calibration had to be skipped. However, the CMS system allows individual adjustment of RGB for value (brightness), hue and saturation, which is much better than a simple color and hue adjustment.

First off, I ran through both grayscale and primary/secondary color calibrations with the factory settings to see where I was at. I used the default “User” picture settings as the starting point. If you’re not interested in the technical details, skip this section and scroll down to the section RECOMMENDED CALIBRATION SETTINGS FOR LC-C4067UN. Here is a summary of the results with the out-of the box “User” settings.

The deltaE (% error from D65) values for 0 IRE to 100 IRE were as follows:
0 IRE: 123.8%, 10 IRE: 27.4%, 20 IRE: 28.4%, 30 IRE: 28.6%, 40 IRE: 30.6%, 50 IRE: 30.1%, 60 IRE: 29.8%, 70 IRE: 30.2%, 80 IRE: 29.7%, 90 IRE: 26.9%, 100 IRE: 22.7%.

According to Kal’s Guide, a value of <10% is recommended across the entire greyscale range with a value of 3% considered as good as it gets. At around 30% across the board, we are a long way off.

Luminance:
The average luminance curve looks OK, but individual colors are off (blue too high, red too low).

Gamma:
Average is 2.25 (target is 2.2). However the average range from 0 IRE to 100 IRE is 2.1 to 2.39. Red is way off with a range of 2.12 to 2.84.

RGB Levels:
Green is OK, but blue is 30% too high and red is 20% too low across the entire grayscale range. Good news is all curves are relatively flat, except in the 0 IRE – 10 IRE range. This is almost black, so you won’t notice any variations here.

Color Temperature: Kal’s Guide recommends not to pay too much attention to this, but for the record, it stays pretty flat across the range 0 IRE (black) to 100 IRE (white) at around 9000K (well above the 6500K target).

I didn’t record the individual deltaE values for the primary and secondary colors, but according to Kal’s Guide, a value of <10% is recommended across the board with a value of 3% considered as good as it gets. All values were in the high teens and 20s.

ADJUSTMENTS.

The white level was adjusted using contrast in the picture menu. This sets the peak luminance. The overall screen brightness and all color adjustments are derived from this value, so it’s important to set this for your specific viewing conditions. Kal’s Guide recommends a target luminance of 30-40 ftL, which is geared towards viewing in a color-controlled environment i.e. a darkened room. I started here (at 35ftL) and found this setting worked as it should for a dark room at night, but was much too low for daylight viewing (no shadow detail). If you want to use these settings, they are in parenthesis below.

I decided to recalibrate and used a value of around 54ftL instead. I found this works well for daylight viewing and am also happy with it for nighttime viewing in dim light. Note: Backlight was toned down to -6 before contrast adjustment. (You may want to be even higher than 54ftL if you watch in a really bright room or close to a window during the day)

The black level was set according to Kal’s Guide and was adjusted using brightness. As mentioned, this TV doesn’t have RGB grayscale adjustment in the user menu, so that’s it for grayscale adjustment (unless you figure out how to further adjust in the service menus – I didn’t go there). Following the above adjustments, the following results were achieved.

The deltaE values for 0 IRE to 100 IRE grayscale were as follows:
0 IRE: 150%, 10 IRE: 7.9%, 20 IRE: 5.7%, 30 IRE: 9.4%, 40 IRE: 9.8%, 50 IRE: 9.5%, 60 IRE: 9.8%, 70 IRE: 10.7%, 80 IRE: 10.5%, 90 IRE: 10.2%, 100 IRE: 9.9%. Except for pure black, this is getting close to being < 10% across the range. I wasn't able to get it any better than this.

Luminance:
Now blue and green are right on target but red showed only a slight improvement from before (too low).

Gamma: Average is a little higher at around 2.27. The average range from 0 IRE to 100 IRE was tightened. Red is improved but still shows the most variation.

RGB Levels: Red and blue are now around 5-10% below target across the range and green is right on as before. Again all curves are relatively flat, except in the 0 IRE – 10 IRE range. This is almost black, so you won’t notice any variations here.

Color Temperature: Sits on 6500K line but tails off a little to 6200K at 100 IRE.
This is a vast improvement over the default.

Primary and secondary colors were adjusted using the CMS Hue, Saturation and Value settings in the advanced menu to get values as close as possible to the recommended settings in Kal’s Guide for the HDTV REC 709 standard. Following the tweaks, the deltaE values for the primary and secondary colors were as follows; R: 14.8%, G: 8.8%, B: 5.3%, Y: 4.4%, C: 9.7%, M: 7.3%. My goal was to get everything less than 10% per Kal’s Guide. I tried numerous iterations and wasn’t able to get red much better than around 14%.

If any pros out there have any suggestions on how to improve the “red” setting while maintaining good values for everything else, please let me know.
Skin tones don’t seem to be affected, but in a “red-looking scene”, e.g. low color temperature setting such as low tungsten light or sunsets, the “red” effect looks a touch saturated for my taste.

Regards.

Sharp LC 19SK24U – 19″ LCD TV – widescreen – 720p – HDTV – black Review

I’ve owned my Sharp LC19SK24U for almost 2 years and used it primarily for a PC monitor at first and now it is a 2nd TV. I bought it on sale for about 0 in Nov 2007, which was about the same price as a stand-alone PC monitor at the time. As a PC monitor, it has an acceptable picture… nothing great.

What I love is being able to switch to the TV with a simple button click on the main remote. (There are 2 remotes.) This saved me from buying a TV tuner for my PC. All you have to do is attach a video cable to it and you’re all set. The TV picture is adequate, but not exceptional. Obviously, you can’t be too far away from a 19-inch screen to see, but if you do watch from across a room, the tiny speakers must be turned up to max, which isn’t very loud at all. There is some distortion at higher levels, which is expected from a small TV. However, if you want better sound, hook auxiliary speakers to the rear jacks. There is a nice feature that automatically adjusts the brightness according to the ambient light in the room, which is handy at night.

There are 2 remotes. One full-featured one and a small basic one that magnetically attaches to the base, (or your refrigerator for that matter if you use it in the kitchen.) The basic remote has a built-in LCD clock & timer, on/off, volume and channel up/down. There are two sets of input RCAs on the back, S-video, HDMI, an analog PC jack, and a small ?mm headphone jack.

Overall, it’s a good small TV.

Sharp Aquos LC32GP3UB 32-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV (Black) Review

When I decided to get an LCD TV, I shopped on line a bit and settled on this one, thinking the Sharp name would be enough to ensure a decent product. I am more than pleased with my decision. The picture on this TV, even with just rabbit ears, is outstanding. The sound is excellent, too, which is something I was worried about with a flat panel; however, I was pleasantly surprised.

I chose this model because of the 1080 resolution and the cabinet style, which I think is the most attractive out there for TVs of this type. The base allows the panel to rotate about 110 degrees, which is very nice and not particularly common with these things. I bought the red one (it’s really more burgundy, but that’s hard to tell from the pictures), and am glad I got such a unique set; it matches my crib. The auto brightness feature is great, especially for a bedroom, where I use my TV. Setup was easy and virtually everything is pretty intuitive without having to read the manual.

The cons are: cheesy remote with cheap feel and poor key layout (I bought a Sharp blu-ray at same time, and it came with much more functional remote with better feel); the fact that you have to toggle thru inputs on remote (see other reviews); on-screen display of menu items is too small, although it is neatly laid out. Although it offers stereo audio and subwoofer line-level outputs, I don’t like the switching on these. I want to use the TV’s speakers along with my stereo; I can do this, but I am not able to control output level to stereo (stereo volume) from TV as switching to variable line level output on TV turns off the TV speakers, which I need for realistic sound staging. I know they did this because they think this is what most people would want, but not I. Seems like a simple firmware matter to offer one more selection for audio output configuration.

Overall, though, I’m highly pleased. For years I lived without a TV (by choice) and then with only rabbit ears. I’ve already tried the digital converter box (govt. cheese) on my old tube set and the reception was poor (unlike this TV, which is great with just rabbit ears). So I caved in and did what Big Brother hoped I would with the digital switch: bought a new tv and signed up for pay service, which I’m getting next month. Next year if I find I’m watching enough to justify it, I’ll move this set to the kithcen/office and buy a bigger LCD for the bedroom, probably for less than what I paid for this one (about 0 from Amazon in early December 2008).

Sharp LC26SB24U 26-Inch 720p LCD HDTV Review

I got this tv to use just for that, a tv. Because I have Cable, I was able to try it out with an Analog signal to start with and the picture quality was not very good. I was told it could be because of the tv tunner and this could be true because when I connected a Digital signal, the picture quality was Excellent. HD is good, sound is good, ajustments are easy and good, enough imputs for me and the TV itself is sturdy. However, the Remote could be bigger and the manual is cheap and leaves much to be desired. It should be a good TV after June 2009 when the country goes all Digital. With Analog I don’t recommend it.

Sharp LC C3234U – 32″ Aquos LCD TV – widescreen – 720p – HDTV – black Review

I’ve had my Sharp Aquos LC-C3234U for over 18 months and it has served as an excellent HDTV. We have it mounted on the wall in our kitchen and attached to a DirecTV high def DVR. The picture quality is quite good for a bright room such as a kitchen. The unit has performed flawlessly during the entire 18 months and I hope to get many more years of service out of it.

I cannot comment on the audio quality because I’ve always used an externally powered 2.1 speaker setup. I assume the speakers are competent but not stellar which is why I’ve never tried them.
