Toshiba 32C120U LCD great picture vibrant color,good black level,and contrast,one of the best 32"sets I found after comparing /viewing quite a few sets ,some costing quite a bit more It is a 2012 model so it's selling at good price .I bought this 720p Toshiba 32C120U at Best Buy for a second set very good picture for $229.00 (For many it is good enough as a first set.) Amazon and others have it at this price also. Get a $50.00 Roku or wifi DVD and you have a smart set This Toshiba is good for almost any HD viewing movies ,TV ,B/Ray ,DVD.also good as a second large display PC monitor.for content consumption or casual gaming . For primary desktop PC monitor use a 1080p set or PC monitor would be betterc net gave this set a very favorable review after comparison, calibration and evaluation they also published their recommended calibration settings .Google c net Toshiba 32C120U review also look at their recommended settings .F.W.I.W. Television info .com web site measured post calibration max peak white on the Toshiba at 361.48 cd/m2 and black at 0.08 cd/m2 potentials arriving at static contrast measure of 4519 that makes it able to provide a very bright decent picture in daylight if needed. Toshiba LCD/LED first and most important thing when you first turn it on is take it out of store mode, Then turn energy saver option OFF! similar thing should equally apply to any modern set see below. .************* Energy Saver Settings ***************************very important for a decent picture Immediately go to the MENU then PREFERENCE SUB MENU (third icon from left ),scroll all the way down to ENERGY SAVER SETTINGS it is hidden way on the bottom below the rezza link , Then turn the Auto brightness sensor OFF (default setting is on ) otherwise the picture will be DARK no matter what,I set my back light at 85 I like a bright picture some may like the back light at 60 others maybe 90 . Turning off the energy setting is the key it is probably only there so they can get the energy saver label .. Thankfully they left the option to turn it off Try these additional settings then see how you like it!/ Picture Menu /Picture Mode Preference /Contrast 50 to 70/ Back light 80 to 95 /Dynalight OFF /Brightness 55 /Color 47 /Tint 0 / Sharpness 5 / Noise reduction sub menu settings DNR OFF / MPEG NOISE REDUCTION OFF / ADVANCED PICTURE SETTINGS SUB MENU / Dynamic Contrast LOW / Static Gamma 0 to 3 / Color temp Warm / These setting should get you a very good picture of course you can and should adjust to your preference .These settings are my preference and not,for calibrated settings see the cnet review.This TV is capable of a Nice Bright detailed picture with good blacks bright whites,vivid color at a no bargin price!
