my first impression on this pj is that the blacks are not as good as my old 4805...but maybe i havent really found the correct setting to get good blacks...

how do you guys tweak your sets? For dark / night scenes are the pics good?

I on AI ... to me contracts improved

the bulk lifespan?? not bothering me ...as I own-ed it for 3moons oledi not even 50jam used

so 1 year most properly about 200-250jam

just like my previous 2 biji pj

same here...my early pj also within one year only managed to go 200+ hours...the 4805 that i sold just did 190 hours...,guess coz it's for nighttime weekend viewing only...

Bro, so unlucky. Mine is okay (touch wood). I think mega's HD65 clocked the most hours here. Anyway, yours is under warranty. You send it back to the shop that you bought up north.

Sorry for bad luck.

This is one of those cases, where it's not advisable to buy without warranty... all luck

As far as I am concerned, new HD65 should have warranty if it is bought in Malaysia. Since HD65 is less than a year model and taking into consideration of the usage of the bulb, I dont think there is any issue with warranty claim if mys_terious send it back to the shop that he bought from.

i dun see difference in AI on

i think its a slight difference only.

I have adjusted the PS3 HDMI Video setting to 720p due to too much noise in the 1080p.
What do u guys saw?

u can try The Host.
HD65 supports either 720p or 1080I , our projector is not FullHD 1080p but Full HD 1080I - Interlaced.

So thats why i set to 720p much more smoother. If u set to 1080p, more grains will be noticeable .
