I guess its what you're after. Turning up the dynamic iris does increase the contrast ratio but it does so by decreasing the accuracy of the image (i.e. for instance whites output much brighter than they actually should be in order to trick your eye into thinking blacks look blacker). Turning down the dynamic iris can reduce the contrast ratio but improve the accuracy of the image. I've found the above settings have a nice output level yet minimal iris response. If you want the "iris" effect you can get a similar look by doing Picture 80 / Low or Medium Iris instead.

Also note my settings are for a room that you can make dim, not for a room which has no light control.
