mancs said:but seriously this is av forums and is for home cinema fans,cinema is movies and if your a casual day time tv watcher the brightness output should'nt even be a thing you should care about being a casual observer and not a avid movie fan.unless you are off handed watching a movie in the day time you will always choose to watch a movie in the dark. But of course the higher end model should atleast offer the same brightness output..for the casual viewer...
Avforums is a home for those with a high interest in av gear and those who just want to learn more, and casual viewers.
Like I've said before each persons viewing habits and environments are all different. Each does not make one or the other less a fan of av.
As a enthusiast all the key points of how a set performs for both day and night is important. Such things should not imo be over looked.
One thing im pleased about is the calibrations that once done give stunning results across gamma and greyscale. That's even taking into account hdtvtest saying a slight dip in greyscale is needed to avoid gamma fluctuations with there vt review.
Thx having a bright day mode is good. But with gamma output at 1.8 in this mode for me gives too much of a washed out image. 2.0 or 2.2 for my daytime use would have been better. Its a shame this mode can't be calibrated.
For night time i prefer gamma at 2.4 which i have a feeling this years sets will hit with ease.
