10-bit encoding virtually eliminates color banding . Banding appears as visible "steps" or lines in smooth gradients, like a sunset or a smoke-filled room. Since Spectre features numerous scenes in dark rooms, tuxedos against white backgrounds, and blowing sand, the 10-bit depth ensures that the transition from grey to black is perfectly smooth.
Spectre may not be the best Daniel Craig Bond film—the plot twist revealing Blofeld as Bond’s adoptive brother felt forced, and the romance with Madeleine Swann (Léa Seydoux) lacked chemistry. However, visually and aurally, it is a stunning piece of cinema. Spectre.2015.1080p.10bit.BluRay.8CH.x265.HEVC-PSA
