I would start with something like Digital Video Essentials and calibrate it

As long as your TV is anywhere near to where it should be from the factory
(and more and more new TVs are) it should be fine.  The only reason to call
in a pro is if something that you can't set yourself is way out of whack
(like grey levels).

That being said, if you are of the hacking type you can always Google around
and see what the codes are for your TV to access the hidden menus the pros
use to calibrate it . Word of warning - using those techniques incorrectly
can really screw up your display.

Just before Christmas I bought a Panasonic 50" V10 and love it, and it only
needed minor tweaks with DVE.
