In Reply to: Here's What Movies Look Like On A PLASMA - SCREEN SHOTS !!! posted by Rich H on April 18, 2003 at 21:42:25:
It's not what I expected from a non HD model!
As far as feedback goes, my monitor is set very accurately (Thanks Adobe! Lots cheaper than ISF.) and your color looks great to my eye.Is that some sort of edge enhancement, though? (There's some "ringing" adding a perceptible edge around objects on screen) You could try cutting the sharpness down (not necessarily off as you would with CRT's) or turning off VSM (Velocity Scan Modulation) if there's an option.
Great buy though! If I over explained anything -- no offense. It's only that I've found that inmates here have a widely varying amount of technical knowledge.

Steve,Yes, there is edge enhancement on some images. I occasionally left my DVD player with the sharpness a tiny bit up for the screen shots (meant to turn it down). Also, there is edge enhancement in many of the DVDs as well, which can't be helped.
Keep in mind that, in looking at these screen shots you're essentially "pushing your nose up against the screen." Do that with any display and you'll likely find artifacts not visible from a normal viewing distance.
All my controls are set to produce a realistic a picture from about 9 to 10 feet away. From that distance, the occasional edge enhancement or ringing does not intrude. (Try looking at one of the small size screen shot images from a little over 3 ft from your monitor, and you should see the artifacts fade while the picture becomes smoother, more life-like, which is how I experience the image).
Thanks for your comments.
