Compare Projectors - JVC DLA-RS10 vs. RS20 - 3

I've already mentioned the out of the box picture quality. Here we discuss post calibration performance. Once we got a handle on the quirks of the RS20's CMS, we were able to obtain excellent final color. Attempting to achieve the ideal 6500K color temp, we ended up with this:

There are differences, though, that those almost identical sets of numbers don't reveal. With the RS20, the CMS allows you to "perfect" each of the primary and secondary colors, as a result, the RS20 does have a slightly better, more natural final picture. The slight color temp differences, as well as the RS20's ability to adjust for oversaturated individual colors, tends to explain the slight additional red of the RS10 found in the dark areas in multiple images above, as well as those below. Please note that, while side-by-side images make it easy to see subtle differences, and thus make you wonder which is right, which is wrong, both, by themselves can look excellent and accurate. (Try covering up one of the two and look at it for a bit. Then do the same, for the other). Keep in mind, our images, by the time they filter down through the camera, the software, and your monitor, tend to exaggerate differences, compared to the original, projected side-by-side images.
