In Reply to: Trails behind fast moving objects... posted by JeffH on February 3, 2008 at 17:22:08:
Displays that have a lower response time should exhibit less blur on fast moving objects.
Also, the displays in stores are often set to "torch mode" (picture settings maxed out) to give a "wow" factor in the showroom, and this can exacerbate the perception of motion "trails".
That said, LCD displays just don't respond as fast as CRTs, and will have more blur as a result.
Not sure how plasma displays stack up, but I suspect that they fall somewhere in betweeen.
