Thanks for your reply. But 20,000 :1 is dynamic contrast ratio. I want to know true contrast ratio.

bhatiaar,

The ratings I use and speak to are the ones that we officialy put on our spec sheets. Unfortunately, I can't speak to any variances of those. If I'm not mistaken, most manufacturers use DCR as their measurement of contrast ratio.
