Hi there, I know this has been debated for a long time but just trying to understand if this level of backlight bleeding is normal. To add some context, this picture was taken in a dark room with the deck showing a completely black image. Thanks!

I try to avoid being in a completely dark room while staring at an LCD because of backlight bleeding. It's a limit of the technology, so I just turn on a dim light in the other corner of the room and it's far less noticeable.
Bias lighting is a common tactic to improve black levels.
