The white level aka contrast is set
way too
high out of the box on all tellys I’ve ever seen, including plasmas,
and
that makes a huge difference.

We've
just had some 42" Fujitsu's put up at work and on SKY thee is terrible
crawling dots on the red part of the On Screen Logo.
Probably
not helped by the fact that the signal is Composite but I couldnt sit and
watch
a picture like that :-(

Last
time I looked at the Pioneer 50" it had horrendous problems with reds
flaring!

I agree. The LG
screen didn't seem like a plasma. It looked more like a rear
projector
screen. The Panasonic is truly amazing! The contrast ratio is
massive and colour reproduction is very true to life. Is saw a
Panasonic
on demo with a DVD playing of a fish tank. It looked real, almost 3D
at
times.
Seeing the LG pixel
problem just got me thinking.
I've being
considering
the Pioneer 50". With the way plasmas are dropping in price I'll
probably wait a bit longer before I buy one. I just need to choose
the
model so I can wire for it and make a housing for it.

The
LG
is horrible – buy a Panasonic from ivojo – no dead pixels and
in a
different class.

Subject: [ukha_d] Plasma
pixels
I'm planning on
buying a
plasma screen in the near future. The other day I was looking at a LG
plasma screen in Currys and noticed that three of the pixels weren't
working. It was very distracting to watch the screen - and would be
extremely upsetting if it was a set that you'd just bought. The tag
on
the screen stated that it was guaranteed for 99.99% pixel operation.
Now
to the layperson 99.99% might seem just about perfect, but if the screen
has
852x480x3 pixels and has 0.01% defective pixels then that's over 120 pixels
not
working - which would be impossible to watch yet within the manufacturers
spec.
Does anyone know
which
manufacturer of plasma tubes has the most reliable manufacturing
method/service
life? Or has anyone have experience of this?
I think that even 1
defective pixel would be too distracting for me.
