My viewing distance is only about 6 - 7 feet, is a Pana 42" PV80H ok or will it be too big?

The problem is my hall is not that big. what is the effect of sitting at 6-7 feet away?

Hmmmm ... really that bad?

How far others sit away from 42" plasma?

oh, it seems that 42" is not a good idea then for my case ..... duh .... no plasma less than 42" ler .... damm.

This is a relief, at least I have you to comfort me that 7ft is ok ... hehehe.

Anyone else can share their viewing distance and how they feel?

Thanks pal. The reason I go for plasma is I want to view ASTRO and understand that ASTRO looks good on plasma.

But it would seems that with viewing distance of 7-8 feet, 42" is too large. perhaps I should consider 32" or 37".

In between Panasonic 32LX800MK 100 MHz and Sharp LC32A53M 100MHz, which one is better ah? Panasonic is 10,000:1 contrast ratio whereas Sharp is 7500:1. And it would seems that Panasonic consume less power at 151W whereas Sharp is at 262W.

Any further comment?

In Penang Queens Bay Mall, PV80 is going for RM4299 only whreas PV8 is RM3999. Not sure KL follow suit only, haven't check yet.

Really? cool.

But I suppose if want to go for the 0% monthly installment credit card payment, not all normal shop will accept right?

Cool ... and I realised Jusco got 5% discount too.

When and what fair is that at the KL convention centre?

My living hall viewing distance is 7 - 9 feet, depending whether I sit on the floor or on sofa .... thought it is too big with 42".

many contributing factor you need to consider, like sizes (depends on viewing distance), ASTRO?DVD?, budget and etc.

Panasonic 32LX800MK, going for RM2599 at those big shop (smaller shop should get cheaper), it's 100MHz, quite good quality.

The other day I was at Harvey Norman. The sales preson was trying to sell the Pana 32LX800MK with 100 MHz. He compared with a Sony 32" full HD model, the pana is much more better. So I think for small size like 32" or 37", no need to get full HD, instead get 100MHz only as this will improve moving action displayed.
