Congrats bro on the arrival of your new tv

glad to hear another ZV user.

Where is the shop ..Can using 0% interest installment ?ha..ha..

Just to share the CNET Asia review on the ZV series.

http://asia.cnet.com/reviews/home_av/tvs/0...5072673p,00.htm

Daren, I read this review the other day and was impressed with its features. Do you agree with the reviewer's cons vs the ZV (especially milky blacks)? The black level wont certainly be that of the plasma's black level isn't it?

Hi,

i going to buy 42ZV, currently the price i ask is around RM3799, have anyone asking cheaper than that?..

may i know how is the contrast on this TV? im normally watch blu-ray in dark environment. just affrair watch those grey white background.

As long as it is still LCD technology, there will always be a little visible light on black background in dark environment, although new LCD TV nowadays are a lot better than just a few years back. For now, one way to improve this situation is to use ambient lighting like this http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1342592

Pure black is only possible on:
1) VERY good Plasma TV
2) LCD TV with zone LED backlighting (ideally zone backlight resolution = panel resolution)
3) OLED TV

Milky black or light black could be seen on the top and bottom horizontal bars but not noticeable in the movie scenes so PQ is awesome to me for my taste. Of course if you crank up the brightness alone in the settings, the whole screen will become greyish black. The good thing about this ZV is that it is loaded with advanced settings which allow you to adjust the greyscale, six base colors, gamma which combine all these settings with suitable Brightness and Contrast levels, it could still maintain a satisfactory black level in the movie scenes without sacrifying detail in the dark

guys, is there anyone of u use full hd resolution for ur pc? how the quality of the wording...? mine is kinda blur with a bit of artifact around the font if u look closely la...I'm using just cheapo dvi-hdmi bought for RM35 at lowyat...

so is it possible to get a nice sharp looking font...?

Yeah, I'm using full hd resolution for my pc, also using the same dvi-hdmi to connect to TV. To get sharp looking font (just like a normal LCD monitor), all I need to do is set the picture mode to "PC-user" at the quick menu. But mine is 42RV600E lar... I guess ZV should be the same too?

Other picture modes I choose (Autoview, Dynamic, Standard, Game) will cause the text to "shadow" a bit or sometimes oversharpen too much, like what you said. Mild and Movie is slightly better but looks too dim for my taste, so sticking with PC-user is still the best

Back at my hometown, my dad's LG 42LG53FR has no such "PC mode", so I had to manually tune the sharpness setting to zero in order to get the same PC-like effect. Might be useful to know for those people using other brand TVs

Hey, haven't seen you post any photo since you changed to your new TV? How is your new setup now? Ambilight still there? Share share lah...

still in setup mode...quiet messy right now...later I show the picture...

I use sony klv-32v550a with my laptop. Font is very clear even with just 1m away, can browse file without any problem. I just use default setting, haven't try other setting or maybe it just 32". I also use cheap 3m HDMI cable RM27 at Tesco, but now it just RM15.

I am also interested in the Toshiba xxZV600E Model LCD TV.
Where is the best shop/place to get this in PENANG for best price & service?
TQ

at last, I already posted my new setup picture here...come come and see...
