42" Panasonic plasma guys.
Just picked up a 42" Panny plasma from Circuit City (lol) for 785$ out the door. Anyone calibrate theirs? If so, I need some settings for mine...I got it looking good to the eye, but any help would be appreciated.

Get a copy of DVE or check c-net for settings. Is that $785 including tax?

Nope, that was 785 out of the door. I don't want to buy a copy of either of those, kinda hoping someone could at least steer me in the right direction. This thing looks ten times better than my LCD |

c-net is a website and they have settings of what others used for their TV. Or search for your model on AVS Forum

Welcome to Tweak TV-TweakTV
Is that a good site to follow for simple and basic calibrations? I realize that it's not as good as pro calibrations, but for some improvements, are they legit?

I have the 50" Panasonic TH-50PX80U and here are my settings for games:
picture 52
bright 48
color 43
tint 0
sharp 75
color temp warm
color mgt off
x.v. color off
video NR off
color matrix HD
MPEG NR off
Black level light
Here are my settings for TV and movies
picture 71
bright 56
color 49
tint -2
sharp 75
color temp warm
color mgt off
x.v. color off
video NR off
color matrix HD

This was based off me calibrating to DVE which I got on BluRay.

Exactly what I was looking for, I was close by eye, had to adjust a few things. Is there a particular way to break these tvs in? I know not to watch static stuff like espn/etc for a long time......no letterbox films yet.......anything else? |

I don't go out of my way for break-ins. I just use the TV and use common sense. Just enjoy it. It should be good to you.
