This is correct. You certainly cannot type the lower black values feom a CRT into the dialog for an LCD, and expect it to magically make your LCD blacker that its capable of being. However, the LCD, at a higher white luminance, higher black luminance, and higher ambient light level, can show the same number of levels, in a manner similar to the human eye, to what the CRT shows. Its all proportional; luminance is not absolute with the human eye.
