colour calibration

I have just bought a Sharp 32" Widescreen LCD HDTV (LC32SH20U) and I
seem to be having problems with getting the colours correct. There
seems to be inconsistency between the different channels. I thought
digital was supposed to correct that problem or is it only corrected
with HD?

Also, I am having a big problem with the reds looking completely
incorrect. Is this something common with Sharp HDTVs or is it because
my model is not top-of-the-line?
Is this a calibration problem or is it a defect/build in design
problem?

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

I have a Sharp 32 CA4Y LCD TV and have no problems with colours and did not
need to calibrate it. I also do not notice any difference in picture
quality between the channels(except difference between standard definition
and high definition broadcasts).

How is your source hooked up? In the set up for the sharp for each input
you tell it what the input source is (component, composite or S-video etc).

I bought a Sharp Aquos 32" last October and am also fighting with
color issues. In my case I have too much of a greenish tint. Even
though I purchased and used the alignment tool, DVE, I coudldn't
resolve the problems.
And just like you, I notice a large variation in color between
programs - as an example: 'CSI Miami' has a noticeable reddish tint
compared to other programs on the same channel.

CSI Miami has the wierdest colors in all of the TVsphere. It always
looks like they shot it inside a jukebox. For more realistic color try
House or Num3ers. From time to time the HD channel transmits a fifteen
minute program of test signals which is highly useful.
