Last post from part 2
Contradicting my second to last post on here saying my mind was made up
about not getting one I caved in and took delivery of the 64d8000 on Monday and thought id write my findings with this TV so far.
bought from richer sounds for £2500 TV, LG 660 bluray player, 2 glasses,galaxy WiFi 5 year warranty originally tried to price match with robert whyte but they had no stock so done me there own package deal
Build date June
Screen peel none so far
All my previous TVs have been Panasonic,apart from a pioneer LX608D and
my last TV being a TH50PZ800 a nice TV apart from the black level rise and purples and greens on peoples faces on some material.
anyway back to the review the first thing I checked was posterisation and general colours that shouldn't be there and could not fault it.
Standard definition through the on board free sat tuner again excellent nice and smooth, the real black filter does a good job dulling out reflections and keeping good black levels in the day time.
Next up motion and these are totally different beasts to the Panasonic's, for instance there's no false contouring on peoples faces when they move.
Black levels are excellent with plenty of shadow detail even in day time viewing.
negatives I've noticed so far are slight line bleed and one or two brightness fluctuations and very quiet buzzing that can only be heard at night in total silence but you have to listen out for it and does not bother me and in no way intrusive.
nothing in life is perfect.
All in all I'm stunned by the quality of the image this TV produces and blows all the other TVs I have owned away. and wouldn't hesitate in recommending it to a friend.
cheers longy
