For those who do not know that term, “Gray Scale” refers to the TV capability, neutral shades of gray from black to white reproduction. It is the “canvas” on which colors are superimposed, making them available on canvas red, green or blue, the colors in the image is too biased to be biased.

The first thing you notice when LG60 line its distinctive housing. The back is finished in bright red, although I’m not quite sure why, since it is set in most cases, counter, or mounted on a wall am. The black front panel is quite large, especially the part below the screen, which is huge by today’s standards. It is also very shiny and distracting reflections. The top of the stand is essentially a silver mirror, the problem worse.

Like most upscale LCD TVs, this refreshes the screen at 120Hz, twice as fast as most TV. In addition, there may be new images in between the video signal through a process called interpolation, in which moving objects placed where they are in the new framework according to their movement. This function, which LG calls TruMotion can be disabled, with each frame is displayed in a 60Hz signal twice, and each image in a 24Hz signal is displayed five times.

Frame interpolation is to overcome motion blur, which is endemic to LCD flat screens. But it can also obviously has artifacts in certain shots, and some of my colleagues, such as UAV reviewer Tom Norton likes, not what they the “look” of film-based material, claiming that frame interpolation makes movies look more like video than film. Such an effect does not bother me in the slightest, in fact, I much prefer the sharper image.

During their demo, the LG reps at a feature that is very rare-a 10-point grayscale calibration system concentrates. Most TVs can offer a 2-point system to calibrate a specialist the low and high ends of the brightness range. But this is often not sufficient to completely in the gray levels, which vary slightly from the standard at brightness levels other than the two that were calibrated to dial.

With a 10-point system like the one in the LG60, a technician can calibrate 10 different brightness levels independently. This takes longer than a 2-point system, but the end result is a perfect grayscale (see drawing). Interestingly, the LG60 provides both types of calibration systems. As always, try not to let this or a TV without the necessary skill and calibrate equipment, it is a job best professionals.

Another important feature is a color management system (CMS), which can correspond to a trained tech adjust the primary and secondary colors more precisely where they should be. The hue and saturation of individual colors can be changed, but there is no brightness control for each color, as it should be.

Many upscale television, including the LG60 offer ISF (Imaging Science Foundation) day and night modes. These allow a tech in the calibration for different viewing conditions-a lock for the day with ambient light sensor and one for the night without a light room, so they do not accidentally messed up.

LG advertises the Intelligent Sensor feature, which detects the amount of ambient light and automatically several image parameters like contrast, brightness, color, sharpness and white balance. I’m not a fan of such automatic image adjustment, rather to optimize the picture settings and keep them there.

can be a side-mounted USB port to play a storage device and display digital photos and music files. Sharing photos this way is a great feature, and you can play music on the same device to accompany a slide show saved, but why do otherwise, to be listening on any TV sound to me a mystery.

The HDMI inputs are version 1.3, which the TV can Deep Color (higher bit depth for smoother color gradations) and CEC (Consumer Electronics Control), which means LG calls SimpLink support. Interestingly, the product literature has not indicated support allows for xvYCC, the expanded color gamut of HDMI 1.3. Not that I’m complaining-no commercial content using Deep Color or xvYCC, and I do not expect change any time soon, these features are essentially useless.
