I feel like I have a new telly!
It may sound stupid but I always thought the best way of viewing 3D was sitting directly in front of the tv, eye level being dead centre. And up until now I was very impressed with 3D and all its offerings. That was until I decided to re-arrange some furniture. I got around to the idea of "mounting" (fnar fnar) my tv to the wall so went about finding the best spot on the wall so I don't lose my best viewing spot. I sat on the floor in front of my chair so I was looking slightly up at the screen to see how high up the wall I would take as acceptable. I began to test a few 3D moments and as my experiment began I found that sitting about 18" lower (eye level) the 3D seemed to pop out even more than before!
Yeah I know some people might be saying "I have mine up higher than eye level anyway" but for people who don't, try it, try sitting 18 or so inch down from your normal eye level and watching a bit 3D. This for me is a revelation, hence the ramble, and gives me a good excuse to watch ALL my 3D movies over again to see the differences
Oh and my tv is an LG50PX990 if that makes any difference
