What is calibration?
The process takes time, energy, and a bit of money
TV calibration is the process by which a range of settings are adjusted to adhere to certain standards in order to improve the image. Calibration, technically, is specific and requires certain tools in order to achieve the right balance. The goal is to match the settings on your TV to those used by the film and TV industry so that you're watching content the way it was intended to be seen. Simply, there is a global standard for video (though I find it hard the 'globe' was able to agree on anything), and it is that standard against which the TV is being calibrated. Everyone is creating content on this standard, so you want to be able to see it like creators see it.Calibration's goal is to match the settings on your TV to those used by the film and TV industry so that you're watching content the way it was intended to be seen.
