[QUOTE="kay, post: 89691, member: 2"] My mate's Sony has the *exact* same problem - it simply cannot handle big changes very well such as fast pans. For some reason it looks worse with SD than with HD signals, but the problem is still there. It looks like it has a tiny bit of lag or something - the picture turns to mush during panning and then, a fraction of a second after the movement stops, it pops into "focus" again. Very disturbing to watch! Interesting also that another mate's no-name brand LCD looks far better than said Sony, although still not quite as good as plasma. The biggest issue that I have with plasma is the added latency - you better have a receiver that can compensate by adding some audio delay. Yeah, the blacks are not as black but the relative contrast is also higher resulting in a punchier image. If your gamma is properly calibrated it is not an issue - not to my eyes anyway. It seems to me like plasma has a lot fewer compromises and much closer to the old CRTs in terms of videophile appeal. [/QUOTE]
