Mitsubishi HC3000 Projector Review – Warranty

The bottom line, is that the HC3000 does need some adjusting to maximize the picture and your viewing enjoyment. You have several options, of course, starting with a professional calibration, however, short of “dropping the big bucks”, you could simply input the settings I have reported here, and see how they work out for you. Better still, get yourself a calibration disk designed for end users, such as the AVIA disk, which dealers sell for less than $50. That (and other competing disks) will let you set brightness, contrast and adjust for best gray levels. Most of these disks are very user friendly. The AVIA disk for example has a very good tutorial, it focuses more on getting the job done, than trying to explain the technology. Almost anyone who can use a remote control, should have the wits to go through the tutorial and then calibrate their projector. I estimate that it shouldn’t take more than 1 hour on your first try. Once you have the hang of it, you can probably complete the process in 20 – 25 minutes. Rocket science made easy!
