Hello,

This is my first post here!

I already read the excellent guide on this forum here:

https://www.curtpalme.com/forum_archived/viewtopic.php@t=10457.html

I have couple question regarding how to use the different menus items in the Z2000. I'm using an Eye-One LT probe along with the ColorHCFR software.

1- Which mode should you start with? (Pure, Natural, Brilliant Cinema)?

2- Should I start with a 50% IRE pattern and adjust the RGB parameters.

3- Then should I try to adjust all 0 - 100% IRE steps using the custom RGB Gamma?

4- For colors, Can I just play with the Color/Tint and the CMS and target each primaries and secondaries to match the "triangle" points?

5- Any other hints about Lamp mode, HDMI mode, Brightness/Contrast or any other menu item, you could think of?

I did an attempt, see .chc attached. The problem is that I'm getting low FL, around 4. I did align the probe at about 25 inches from the screen pointing at it. But if I put the probe closer, like 3-4 inches, as suggested in the guide, I only get around 8 FL.

I really feel I can obtain some good results, but really not sure how to proceed.

Thank you

Pitou!
