    It is frustrating to read reviews that are giving perfect scores, and not seeing that resembled on the HT display that is running in your house. Solely because of HDR, and how the hardware you are using is processing/displaying such films. Regarding HDR we now also have to take into account...

    I took down the pics. A can of worms that needs to stay buried. I'm out.

    OK, the "losing respect" with review sites was an extreme thing for me to say. For that I apologize. I guess I should have just stated I'm disappointed in their review. Once in a great while reviews are written that I certainly disagree with. This happens to be one of them. 99.9% of the...

    This is my opinion about the film presentation. Why are you taking issue with it with how I feel about it? If I disagree about a review that is my problem, not yours.

    I'm not judging you, I'm judging the professional reviews giving this a perfect video score. I usually base my buying decisions on such reviews. If you think it looks great, then that is great.

    The HDR looks like the contrast got boosted hence giving it a washed out look. Overexposed shadow detail.

    I think the HDR looks bad. I'm not even sure how to describe it other than unnatural. Washed out. Without it (Dynamic Range Conversion) it looks much, much better. Thank goodness for my Panasonic UHD player. It saved the day.

    It is a problem. HDR can be one of the most amazing features currently in the home theater hobby. But it can also ruin films, and crush the life out of dark content. The sad thing is I know what the mastering of many of these movies is going for...more realism as to how the human eye...

    With The Panasonic UB9000 I am having no problems whatsoever with HDR off. Beautiful picture conversion.

    Nope. Tried on multiple displays, and playback hardware-same results. Have you seen the HDR on "Unforgiven", or "Pet Semetary" (1989)? Try with and without HDR, and tell me what you think.

    I'm not sure why most people with 4K setup feel the need to have HDR implemented at all times as if it was mandatory. It is an option, not a requirement. So many of my discs I watch without HDR, because with it turned on the blacks are crushed and the movie looks terrible.
