Panasonic BT-LH1700WP monitor for Color
by beau brotherton on Mar 11, 2008 at 9:44:46 pm

Hey All,

I have an issue with the monitor that is in the edit suite that I am working at. These guys have a Panasonic BT-LH1700W (a Panasonic 17in LCD monitor) and a Panasonic BT-LH900AP (a Panasonic 8.4in LCD monitor).

Now I love the picture on the 8.4in and the color looks great, but on the 17in, the color has a bit of a greenish tint and the contrast is not great.

Is anybody using the Panasonic BT-LH1700W, if so, any issues or success. If success, could you send me some calibration specs to see if I can get this thing to look any better.

Or if anybody has any thoughts I would love to hear them. I have also posted this on the Apple Color forum, so sorry if you have read this twice

Thanks a lot for your time and have a great day.

Best,

I'd start with the basics:
Has the monitor been calibrated to colorbars?

Calibration set aside ... that panasonic monitor is really designed for field use not post as I understand it and really aren't designed as Colour Grading calibre monitors
I just use mine for the screening of the various decks and resolutions that exist
