WTB: HDTV Calibration DVD

[myke]

I was looking to buy a calibration DVD such as Digital Video Essentials to calibrate my Sony Bravia & Bluray. Does anyone have one they dont need or got the material down so well they want to sell it? Otherwise I guess I will hit ebay or Amazon.

Send me a PM with your email. I can pay via paypal.

Thanks

The thing is most keep the dvd as you will use them over and over as the display ages. Its best just to pick you up

You can rent them from blockbuter online, maybe netflix has them too, not sure... the only thing is if you go that route you don't get the color filters, but you can still adjust everything else.

For Blu-ray get this one: http://www.oppodigital.com/blu-ray-benchmark/ You might be able to find that one used.

Just buy it right from the source. That way you know the color filters will be in excellent shape.

Or just buy an Oppo and they give you one with the player.

Thanks. I see a few versions. What do you mean by they wont have the color filters? They look like the same DVD to me.

The color filters are pieces of film that have an exact referrence color (red, blue & green) for use in setting the colors.

You can also buy them separately:

Yup - The Blu-Rays are cheap on Amazon! $20 bucks...you're not going to save much going used.
