The paragraph under the second TV picture.

LGs website stating Ultra Luminance in specs.

Pictures of my TV showing Exodus HDR demo turning it on and off (top right). Excuse the pictures, taken with my phone and I had some reflection.

Blur is because I paused during fast action to catch the HDR pop up.
You can clearly see It has HDR! Lol

My settings results will probably vary on your set but feel free to try them.

Movies and General Watching.

Make sure your blu-ray player upscaler is switched off as the TV upscales for you and 24p is turned on for hdmi output on the blu-ray player also.

Picture mode: Expert 1
Backlight: 30. 3D 35
Contrast: 95
Brightness: 52
Sharpness 9, 9
Colour 61 - Then all defaults (your set may be different but these produced vibrant natural colours on mine. If in doubt set to 50)

Expert: All Off, Colour Gamut Wide
Gamma 2.4

White Balance: Medium, 2 points, All 0
Colour Management: All 0

Picture Options: All Off, Black Level Low, Local Dimming Medium
Tru Motion Off, Real Cinema OFF (make sure to turn real cinema off aswell as this was an underlying problem causing ghosting in 3D and more judder on 24p video) Your blu-ray player will look after your 24p movies.

For sport use the same settings except turn on tru-motion, User, de-judder 7 if you feel necessary (tested on spears and munsil on my set which reduced stutter the most)

Once set properly this TV is just great.
Legends of the guardians 3D in particular is spectacular.

It makes it easier searching for a TV when you completely rule out a major manufacturer, so it has its' perks lol. Good luck in your search for a TV :smiley:

I agree, the best thing about 4K is Passive 3D, There are so many benefits to Passive over Active but the nature of passive 3D splits the picture and downgrades picture quality so on 1080p, this isn't very good at all for clarity. Essentially watching Passive 3D in 4K is like watching it in 1080p but with all of the benefits of Passive. (Cheap glasses, lighter more comfortable, brighter picture, no batteries!)

Its not a bed deal and I wish if it were a OLED tv instead

I have also kept a close eye on this model, i have recently purchased the LG 55LF652V and its good however if prices for the better models drop now then i will exchange. Not to bothered about 4k as 95% of what i watch is terrestrial tv.

Cracking TV for the money!

Hot!

You can also get the sony KD55X8509C for same price, which is also a lot of tv for the money.

I will be getting a 55 inch tv in next few days, and i am stuck between a few just so much to choose from

I prefer Passive 3D for many reasons and personally have a bad experience trying to get Sony to honour warranty as they are based in Egypt despite being named Sony UK. They used to be my first choice but I won't buy them again. Problem was never resolved.

I am not knocking this tv its a cracking tv for the money but so is the sony, i am buying a tv in next few days and all i am doing is going from one to tv to another as there is so many at my price point (£1000)

Yes Active 3d on the sony and i do prefer passive myself but its not a major deal for me as i have watched about 3 movies in 3d since i have had my LG which is around 2years old.

Warranty can be hit and miss with all the big manufactures you can find bad reviews and stories for them all. But i would be same as you once i was treated bad they would never get my money again.

I got the 60 inch LG Led for £899 from curry's black Friday sale!
