Mods, please hit me with the naughty stick if needs be. I think my last post was probably a bit too much waffle and not enough explanation. Plus there's probably other people asking the same thing.
I'm currently looking at these sets -
Samsung 40F6670 - deeper blacks than the panny due to the panel, worse motion. Has some kind of dimming trick? Lots of technical bits n' pieces. Active rather than passive. The other, more expensive option, is the F7000 but I've not really figured out if the extras are worth the extra £400.
Panasonic L42ET60B - less fancy than the Samsung but I've heard good things about the smart features. IPS means it's not as dark but handles motion well? Avforums recently reviewed the 55" version well. Plus passive - does it have those annoying lines on 2D? Are the DT and FT worth waiting for, or will be they be muy caro?
Thing is, I do like the idea of LED, but I'm wondering if plasma is the way to go - I know this forum's quite plasma centric, however. I've had three LED's I've had to send back due to screen uniformity and loads of other issues this year, so I'm wondering if I should possibly just go for the -
Panasonic TX-P42ST60B- this year's 42" plasma. I've got an old U30b downstairs and it's done me proud but the picture can lose its crispness in motion.
I guess I'm just flummoxed. Any help appreciated. And again, modspank if I'm doing this wrong (please feel free to delete my old topic in this forum).
