RE: [SHADO] UFO Copyright Owners


Thanks for the oportunity to see the difference!
I was very curious to see how Thunderbirds HD look like, guessing how it will
impact UFO in HD. I can see that the new images are brighter (sometimes even too
bright), have more detail, colors are more vivid but sometimes lean towards
bluish, and contrast is stronger without much loss to black crush. The loss in
the composition is unacceptable for me, though...

Thanks again
and all the best,
Branko

But you're right -- for the most part, the missing top and bottom on

Thunderbirds (and even UFO) are not that noticeable to the casual

viewer...
