Panasonic LH1700 Settings
Wondering if anyone has an idea of which color temp to set this monitor at to make it the most accurate. We’re using it with our HDX900. Choices are USERO-63, D93, D65. D56. and three VAR’s. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

I would say the D65 is the “official” standard.
That said, when shooting under tungsten lighting 3200k, the image may look blue after your eyes have adjusted to the 3200k lighting. Sometimes I set the monitor to D56 when shooting with tungsten lights and viewing the monitor on the set…
The User setting lets you set the color to any color temp the monitor can display, your choice.
The VAR setting lets you adjust the white balance (and the black balance sort of) of the display using separate R,G,B controls. I would suggest using a monitor “probe” or light meter designed for LCD displays to use this custom setting.
Hope this helps.
