Sumsung Plasma TV:
Test and Optimum Viewing Distance: 13 feet
Calibration Notes: The Samsung PN50B550 has very complete calibration options for this price range with white balance controls. The TV calibrated well with a low error rate after adjusting white balance. Tint required unusual adjustments to dial the set in perfectly to D6500. Follow the following picture settings to calibrate:
| White Balance Settings | |||
| Red-Offset | 22 | Red-Gain | 33 |
| Green-Offset | 25 | Green-Gain | 25 |
| Blue-Offset | 12 | Blue-Gain | 33 |
| Picture Settings | |||
| Picture Mode | Movie | Black Tone: | Off |
| Color Temp | Warm 2 | Dynamic Contrast: | Off |
| Brightness | 56 | Gamma: | 0 |
| Contrast | 90 | Color Space: | Auto |

| Tint | G35/R65 | Edge Enhancement: | Off |

Up conversion from 480i: This signal test will let you know how the TV will perform with your digital cable or satellite signal as well as regular ole non blue ray DVDs. Up conversion processing was slightly fuzzy with a slight grain apparent from a 480i source signal. The Samsung PN50B550 has a tendency to make up for any deficiency in definition with accentuated color information. That said, color rendition is still pleasing and realistic. One slight drawback would be watching dark content in a brightly lit room. The Samsung B550 presents a very true, well calibrated but darker image and this combination darker content and brighter room light may cause some eyestrain. Solve the problem temporarily by turning the contrast up to 100%.
