We'll use the new HX310 to set the white point on all of our showroom TVs before calibrating them and then use the color grading monitor again to compare the color fidelity and saturation of all of our TVs in the showroom.

We'll also use this monitor when we're calibrating our clients' TVs and at our TV Shootout evaluation events as the reference display.

Last week at the clubhouse, the MITC had a bunch of reference monitors, including the HX310 set up for attendees to evaluate and compare…..

some eagle eyes think the HX310 appears a tad warmer than the previous gold standard, the BVM-X300, which is not necessarily a bad thing

I’m finished for this afternoon, lunchtime over, back to work.
Hand-wringing threads, e.g. Bill Hunt’s latest prediction, Samsung quits……, carry on until y’all get it out of your systems.

Big swing from when it was first developed ...

• Official Secrets (2019)
[Tells the story of Katharine Gun, who leaked a secret memo exposing an illegal spying operation.]

"The project began development in January 2016, with Harrison Ford, Anthony Hopkins, Paul Bettany, Natalie Dormer and Martin Freeman cast in the film, and a filming start of May announced. Tahar Rahim and Gillian Anderson were cast during the 2016 Berlin International Film Festival. However by June 2017, filming had yet to begin, and cast member Anderson stated she hadn't heard anything about the project since being cast.

By January 2018, the project was redeveloped, with Gavin Hood now set to direct in place of Justin Chadwick, and Keira Knightley and Matt Smith cast in February, with the actors initially cast no longer involved in the film. In March, Ralph Fiennes and Matthew Goode joined the cast, with filming beginning on 12 March 2018 in Yorkshire. Filming took place in the village of Boston Spa on 14 March. Indira Varma, Conleth Hill and Tamsin Greig joined the cast the next day. Filming had moved to Manchester by 19 March, serving as a stand-in for London. Filming was undertaken in April 2018 in Liverpool's St George's Hall.

The film had its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival on January 28, 2019."

Wow. What's the rough cost of repairing that?

Agent Kay · 03-08-2019, 01:25 PM

I had a fun thing happen last night, my amazon prime tv went all OLED grey bars for all UHD HDR content.
Weirdly the blacks looked miles better due to that!
This should be an option for LCD peeps, that or Hype Williams white bars maybe.

depends if it only cracked the protective glass or extended thru that into the lens itself, i’d suspect the later for which i don’t know the cost to replace, any guesses from anyone as to how it happened?

Given that it's at a sporting event of some sort, then I'd guess it was due to a sporting event of some sort.

With the pads on the left, it made me think it could be a gymnastics event.

Thanks for the answers. Even better to have the actual footage!

The camera was just too close to that mesh net. ...Human miscalculation.
