I've had the Samsung QE55Q70R for a few days and on the whole I've been very impressed but noticed that end credits on films and when the screen is black apart from some white text in the middle that the text seemed very dark (problem disappears when bringing up the menu - text/credits appear bright and normal). *I should add subtitles are not a problem.
So i ran the following local dimming test which uses the white square and circle moving around a black screen and was surprised to see that the smaller the little white square/circle became the darker it appeared - the smallest becoming almost grey in colour (square shape affected the most).
Link to the local dimming test i used - would be interested in other Q70R results - especially the Samsung QE55Q70R .
I also noticed that the direction the leading edge of the shape moved in, it would become darker than the rest of shape as it moved around the screen - and as the shape became smaller it looked as though is was moving in and out of shadow.
And lastly as the image begins to speed up the image becomes blurry (expected) but seems excessive with the above issues added to the equation.
Question is - is this norma? As I've been reading a lot today about FALD and black crushing - and now i'm confused as to what i'm supposed to expect. But no mention of this issue - that i've come across yet...
*The TV is calibrated via a combination of main pro review recommended settings and personal preference - but having little affect regarding this issue. And all other colour calibration tests seem normal, great even - to my eyes.
