Many thanks for the reply.
Exposures were as follows.
ISO 100
AV Priority
Pic 1 - 6 seconds
other pics 1.3 - 2 seconds.
All I really want to know is if this is to be considered as a fault worth returning the set for. I would go for an exchange rather than another model at this stage. I do like alot of the things the sammy does. At the software level things are so much better but picture quality has to come first.
Regarding the calibrated Vs Non Calibrated settings.....
I preffer the picture with the calibrated settings as non calibrated gives the soap opera effect and is way too bright to watch comfortably.
The reason I brought it up was just in the context of light bleed and the black test screen.
Non calibrated significantly improves bleed and torch over calibrated which is what I find hard to understand.
Here are another couple - same shot, different exposure.
1) Dark Knight Scene - 5 seoncds at ISO 100

2) Same With slightly shorter exposure - 3 seconds.

Keeper or returner ?
