Big Screen LCD Alert!

Video Asylum

TVs, VCRs, DVD players, Home Theater systems and more.

Went to Cosco on a water run yesterday. I took a couple minutes to stare at two LCD tv's, a "120Hz" Sony(not XBR4) and a cheap Visio. They both were showing the same thing, some sort of HD show of various scenes. On ocassion you could see the Visio juddering as it had a problem showing smooth movement while the Sony 120Hz was fine, smooth. However, to my surprise, less often the Sony 120Hz would jutter with some certain movement rates while the Visio was just fine and smooth.

Now I have read that Sony doesn't use true 5:5 pulldown for its 120Hz machines which makes them crap to me. There is no way I'm going to plunk down 2.5 plus grand and have phony juddering on my set. Does this mean only real 5 5 pulldown fixes this problem???

We'll have to agree to disagree about human caused global warming until the next global cooling scare comes along.
