hi im planning to get a 40" samsung 6200 or 6900. In the other forums, (not in malaysia) there is a lot of talk on the led tv making movies look like "soap opera" i.e.
looking fake, too sharp, handycam effect etc.. the tv is however very good for news, docu, gaming..
do any of the owners have this issue? and is there anything that can be done to counter it? Most discussion pin the blame on the 120hz thing (m not too sure what they mean)
Thanks!!
This is interesting and now that you mentioned it, I sort of agree. When I was deciding on which TV, I looked at Plasma and LED.
The Samsung LED was showing Transformer 2 and picture was super super sharp. It was very very impressive at first look. But when they have this close up shot of the actor's face, I felt it is so sharp that it does not look real, more like artificially drawn video game character.
Then I looked at Panasonic Plasma. It was definitely not as sharp. A bit sharper may be nicer but the color is much more natural. Then when you think again, when you look at your real human friend, it wasn't LED type of sharpness either. So at the end of the day, I conclude that Plasma is definitely more natural in color and also in sharpness so IMO, a better choice for movies (not cartoon).
Ya, sometime I still hope Plasma can be a little bit sharper.
