In theory, if the display accepts both, there should be none, as your goal in calibrating would be for example to have the number 4 or the PLUGE stripe on a color bar be the same brightness on both modes (That's why it's called calibration)

So if you chose Full and turn the brightness up, and chose Limited and turn the brightness down so that in both the number 4 glows at .02 footcandles, (and the white at 40 footcandles) both Full and Limited would have a 2000:1 contrast ratio

I think I answered that one a while back.


About setting color and hue you probably need a very deep blue filter or gel (comes with some test discs or sometimes I've used a swatch book like this: Roscolux) that makes non-blue color bars black and adjust hue and color settings so the 7669 color bar looks like this:


(I wrote a little more about this in another thread recently.)



For sharpness you can use the 7669 resolution pattern (or the T2 Blu-ray THX one if you have it, or a BD test disc), turn sharpness all the way down so the high frequencies are the least sharp/greyest, then slowly turn sharpness up if needed so the high frequencies are as sharp (or contrasty) as the low frequencies without overdoing it (don't oversharpen, make them even to the low frequencies) .
