    UHD Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ CITIZEN KANE -- in 4k UHD

    I agree about the FIM being flawless; I was just responding to the "rumor is" comment that the other poster made. If it's more than a rumor, and FIM is definitely handling it, then yes, it will be as perfect as possible. It's just that StudioCanal doesn't always use them, and when they don't...

    Can't even remember from the last time I watched it, but now I'll make a point of putting my WB disc in tonight to check it out. It will be especially interesting to compare to the UHD, whenever that ships for me.

It was nice that they let you...

    It does when it's active, and usually takes a second to settle in. But that's not the issue. Even with the dynamic iris off, there's still coloration with the Mid level setting which doesn't happen on High. I actually just finally figured that out last weekend. I had been turning off the iris...

    Thanks. As an aside, have you updated to latest Theatre Optimizer firmware yet, and if so, have you noticed a gamma shift with the HDR on some black-and-white movies? I leave mine set to the Middle level for most films, though I occasionally adjust it to the High setting for some particularly...

    Your review only mentions the Dolby Vision, so just to clarify, you had the same issues with the HDR10 layer via your JVC?
