Quite liked the mini review.

Accompanies the full on text review quite nicely.

Nice to see a few moving pics of the tv too (as opposed to stills in a text review).

Now that's an idea as brilliant as it is simple.

Re: Video Review: JVC LT-46DS9

The bit where the pre/post calibration picture was shown with a swipe was pretty impressive, assuming that it was actually captured from the display, rather than being done in editing to give an impression of the difference.

However, its only used as an illustration as we can't capture exactly what its like on camera, but as David said, it was real and we film each product in such a way.

Re: Video Review: JVC LT-46DS9

Yes, the improvement is even more startling in real life; the uncalibrated image makes your eyes water!

Re: Video Review: JVC LT-46DS9

Definitely. Also, the shots of the test pattern showing edge enhancement problems were pretty interesting too. Are there any plans to do video reviews of projectors?

Yes they have been shot, I just need to find the time to edit and get them up. I am at present struggling to get actual review machines tested and turned around quickly at the moment, but the videos will appear soon.

Re: Video Review: JVC LT-46DS9

Would be nice to see some input lag tests for the gamers out there like me. Anyone know how the input lag of DS9 compares to the Sony W4000?
