More accurately, the Dolby/Brightside technology extends
the dynamic range (contrast) of the LCD display, through
a combination of modulating the backlight intensity across the
area of the backlight (this trick only works with direct-lit
LED backlighting) along with corresponding modifications to
the image data. The results are very impressive, but most
color-critical pros I've talked to aren't all that interested in any
method that mucks around with their data, unless they're VERY
clear on exactly how that data is being changed and can turn
any such feature off and see their image "as is".
