colour banding in Close Encounters of the 3rd kind

[danny_boy]

Hi

1st post in this forum.

Got a sony 350 Bdp player and a Panasonic AE2000 HD projector and can get images as large as 1.5 meters and bigger!

Whilst CEOTTK is an excellent transfer i noticed some severe colour banding in the special effects laden scenes towards the end of the film

The colour banding seems to occur most where the rimmed lights/flare lights surround the alien ships.And the banding in the very final scene as the mother ship lifts off is awful.The white light underneath the ship is really badly segmented.

Now it could be because my set up is still wrong...but I have tried different colour modes and distances and it is still noticable.Just wondering if anyone -else noticed the same thing with their copies?

I am still prepared to accept that it could still be because my set up is wrong LOL!
