Optimal picture settings for the Pioneer using ISF Calibration

Hi guys i have the Optimal picture settings for the Pioneer PDP-4270HD using ISF Calibration and i have the PDP-427XD would the same settings apply or not any help would be very much appreciated!

here are the settings

The following table contains the picture settings for the PDP-4270HD after its ISF calibration. We highly suggest that, if you own or purchase a Pioneer PDP-4270HD, you imitate these picture settings and save yourself several hundred dollars by doing so (rather than having a calibration specialist set it the same way). By configuring the television to the settings found below, we were able to maintain the color temperature in between D6400K and D6600K depending on the picture's brightness—a virtually flawless calibration. Using the below settings to regulate the color temperature and white balance virtually perfects the picture of the PDP-4270HD:

Pioneer PDP-4270HD Optimal Picture Settings
AV Selection User
Contrast 32
Brightness +3
Color +5
Tint -2
Sharpness -4
PureCinema Off
Color Temperature Low
CTI Off
DNR Low
MPEG NR Low

Optimal picture settings for the Pioneer PDP-4270HD using ISF Calibration.
To move any closer to D6500K would require modifying the television's service menus—a method which could potentially destroy the television. This would be essentially pointless because of the accuracy of the calibration.

The higher Color Temperature settings make the picture's white balance too bluish. Because our tester PDP-4270HD was calibrated with ISF-certified equipment, using Pioneer's proprietary picture improvements, such as PureCinema, is not necessary. According to our research, other measures such as Digital Noise Reduction (DNR) actually seem to degrade the picture of these upper-tier plasma televisions.
