Sony OLED video

Not sure if this has been posted but looks intresting!

I'd only seen still pictures of this before, but I have to say that looks very very impressive.

[LewisD]

Whoa, that looks incredible! :D

It'll be good to see some of the 50" screens of the future thats for sure.

[Caimbeul]

That is seriously cool! - could just clip or stick the screen to the wall.

This is the end of LCD and definelty for plasma-was considering upgrading my Bravia, but I'l wait till these bad boy's are out in the shops. Once R'nD is paid for these will be cheap too.

I also beleive this is the way forward for 2D displays. LCDs still have their issues and plasmas also have a few bad points.

Its a shame SED doesnt seem to be working out for Canon and Toshiba.
I thought SED would be mainstream for larger screen sizes and OLED would be mainstream for smaller 20" to 30" sizes.

I still hope these new formats take over LCD and Plasma.

Looks fantastic. However, I can't help but think - there were lots of still life images weren't there. Not too much fast action stuff. I wonder what the response time of these new panels is? Quite slow, I would imagine. Ghosting and lag galore, I suspect.

I would expect response times to be almost infinitessimal; certainly at least as good as CRT.

Based on what evidence or logic?

I don't agree by the way.

All the reviews I've seen of OLED suggest that their response times are pretty good.

One of the major reasons that Sony are introducing them for camera viewfinders is the deluge of complaints they received from camera operators covering sports when they switched to LCD viewfinders on HD cameras, from CRTs. The laggy LCDs didn't allow for decent coverage of fast moving scenes, and were a nightmare on golf and tennis.

AIUI when Wimbledon started using HD Cameras last year, they had to ditch the LCD viewfinders and introduce a slightly "modified" CRT viewfinder from an older HD series camera?

[Stephen Neal]

Interesting that Quantel have announced they are adopting, or plan to adopt, OLED displays for some of their HD post-production devices.

I guess they were forced to switch from HD CRTs to LCDs - and haven't been happy with the colourimetry, especially for grading applications?

Conventional LEDs or laser diodes can be pulsed fuly on or off at a frequency measured in Gigahertz.

Very interesting. Nothing to do with OLED though, is it. The "O" is significant I think.
