Default Panasonic TCL47ET5 picture settings?

Just picked this set up last week and I am loving it! Want to see what kind of extra mileage I can get out of it by tweaking with my picture settings. Anyone here have this set (or any size ET5 series Panny) and wants to share their picture settings? Much appreciated!

Hi there,

I own TX-L47ET5Y which seems to be en European version of your TV. I'm owning it only for few days but from what I learned for is that almost all picture enhancers are flawed in some way. I ended up with turning most of processing features off to get clear, undisturbed picture without fluctuating brightness.

I own the 42" ET5. It took me forever to get my picture at a setting I was comfortable with. For a long while, I thought I had a defective set. The problem is, the US version has much more limited options than the UK one does, so if you feel the need to adjust any gains or whatnot, you'll need to access the service menu.

Here's what I'm currently using on my ET5...

Picture Setting: Standard
Backlight: 65
Contrast: 80
Brightness: 30
Color: 58
Tint: -2
Sharpness: 24

Color Temperature: Cool

All additional color correction and picture enhancement settings set turned off.

This gives a more natural look as far as I'm concerned. It's not going to make colors "pop" like that typical LED look. I actually haven't been able to produce that with any setting.

This is after running Disney's WOW calibration disk on multiple occasions, by the way.

Settings of 42ET50 shows contrast at 240+ in service menu.

Seems messed it up. Can any one please share share settings from service menu ...Please guys...
