Great for a setting heavy display
This is a great and simple calibration tool if your display has all the settings available for tweaking.

no help
I gave this one to my son as he has the blue-ray.Same result no help.I can't go off and tell you why exactly they did nothing for us but every thing in there was just basic instructions that you get out of the manual.

Probably a good tool to have for an HD TV.
I do believe that this product is well worth the money it costs. I only purchased it to use the test patterns. To figure out how to use them, you have to go through rather long and boring sections of the video. They should probably sell a disk with just the test patterns and a pamphlet on how to use them. I would have paid more to not go through the other stuff on the disk.

Good HD Primer for Tech-Heads
Provides a good amount of info for those interested in a fairly detailed knowledge of the HD technology. A minor failure is a cumbersome navigation scheme that may leave initiates confused as to where they are.

quite poor communication and absorbed
Let me start by saying that I have a BFA in film and I work as a director in the film industry for a decade now. I understand 95% of what Joe is talking about. But man... did he show anyone his final cut before he went to press?
It DID help me get better contrast, but the color section is so poorly narrated. you'll just get confused. There is NO explanation on HOW to use the color gels. what is the right configuration? or wrong one? especially for red and green.
If you go to his website, you'll find that there is NO phone number, NO email and NO support available! Perhaps he was overwhelmed with all the incoming questions that his video raises? but fails to answer?
This has the capacity a GREAT video... but only if there was someone more caring about the viewers experience... and not so self absorbed in jargon that really doesn't apply to the end result: A BETTER LOOKING PICTURE
