Out of the box, the TV settings are "vivid". At the very least you'll want to set it to "standard" under picture settings/picture mode. This wont fix the black problem by itself, but then under advanced settings there are a couple of adjustments that will, namely "gamma" and "black corrector". Play with these a bit and you'll get better black detail. If you'd like a full listing of user calibration settings for viewing in a darkened room, here is a link that will give you those presets. Try them, and if you like it, you're done! Otherwise, play around a bit with the settings I mentioned to achieve the desired results. Here's the link: http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-10060430-1.html?tag=mncol;txt I hope you find this helpful, I'm using these settings myself and am pretty happy with the results. Be warned, however, once you reveal black detail, you may notice unevenness in the black uniformity of the screen. Good Luck!

Check this forum for your favorite setting. I used post 274's setting and it looked great~ Don't use the setting right out of the box, it's horrible and way too bright. http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=901174

It all really depends on your own room. I tried several different calibrations that I found on the web and none of them are acceptable to me. I've found that I have to tweak each movie or show that I'm watching individually, but eventually I get to a good picture after practice. The HD channels are much better then the SD channels. I also found that the scrolling bar helps to cleanthe colors. It seemed a little brighter after using the grey scroll bar. I am still getting used to the lack of brightness versus an LCD, but the true colors are worth it.

I used this review from cnet to help me: put the TV into movie mode, turn the backlight down to 8-10, contrast down to 85-90, and motion plus to 'clear'. Play around from there and you'll find your sweet spot. From Samsung's How-To's: Picture settings provide you with one-touch selection of brightness, contrast, and color temperature levels suited to different viewing conditions, such as Movie mode for nighttime viewing when room lighting levels are low, and Standard, and Dynamic for daytime viewing when the room is filled with a mix of artificial and natural light.

Overall these setting really helped. Thank you. When I go to the real cinema setting in the advanced menu, it is shaded gray and I cannot change that setting. Does anyone know why?

Keeping in mind your ambient room lighting,...I had copied this set of information below from an online site while I was doing my searching as well...apologies for not doing a copy of the web site as well as this hard work came from them, I hope it helps: "The following settings were arrived at through a process of manual adjustment and further adjusted for preference. As indicated in our How we test televisions article, processing such as noise reduction and dynamic contrast are disabled for picture and testing purposes. They may or may not be re-engaged based on subjective preferences gained from observation during real-world performance scenarios. Though we arrived at these settings with a specific TV size, these settings can be used for any of the sizes in this TV series with consistent results. Preferred Settings Backlight: 75 Contrast: 69 Brightness: 49 Sharpness: 8 Color: 55 Tint: -2 Color Temperature - Normal Advanced Settings Noise Reduction - Low MPEG NR - Low Color Enhancement - Off Adaptive Luma - Off Film Mode - Off Smart Dimming - Off Ambient Light Sensor - Off "

Hi Mike, Good question, I'll give you my "best guess" answer. I have had this great TV since April and searched the web for the same information. First, its not bad right out of the box. Second, seems the recommended settings vary for 2D and 3D, ambient light conditions and to some degree the signal source each of which can ALSO have a range of settings. I have left the settings on the signal source devices at default levels and made the suggested adjustments on the TV. I have the Spears & Munsil HD Benchmark Blu-ray DVD but have not used it with this TV, as yet. I have used the settings found at http://www.soundandvision.com/content/samsung-un75es9000-3d-lcd-hdtv-settings and just tweaked them a little bit for personal taste. Good place to start. Please advise if you find another source for useful settings. It's a great 2D TV and paired with a good 3D player, it does a good job of 3D as well, especially with little ambient light. Professional calibration is always an option as well. Best Regards, Marc

Anyone got any other calibration settings. Ryans settings are great but I find the colors to be a little bit dead, also Netflix on PS3 does not look the best even on X-High compared to my 720p LG. Nvm problem solved they look nice its just some HD streams look worse then others. Also presume your not suppose to be standing right next to the TV while watching :o.I raised the color settings and lowered the black level to make the picture have more color.Thanks Ryan!

maybe double check the settings menu, I saw a "dynamic contrast" in there somewhere. Don't know if it would help any, or if it's default on or off, I was clicking all over the place! It could also be using more power to light up the screen? Is your video card good for the resolution? Just guesses....
