In all of the pictures, the colors look faded or washed out. Is this a true representation? I have seen similar maps w/ more vibrant colors.

All the colors on the map are bright. You won't find any other map as colorful and with nice details as this one. The price is affordable. I recommend it to you. My kids love it!!

Mine did not. Mine came in two narrow rectangle boxes half the length of the map and taped together in the middle. It also had creases about every inch across the map, I'm guessing because it was compressed during shipping. I was not offer a replacement.

My subscription ran out this spring so if the areas I saved were updated I didn't notice an improvement. I can still view maps I had saved during my subscription. The quality isn't as good as googlemaps.com but considering the price I paid I felt they were worth it. It does make things better than looking at a plan topo map.

I'm having a similar problem. I've noticed it most in low light, when the subject moves. I don't think I've experienced it much outdoors in bright light. I've not taken the time to research it yet. I'd say I've been somewhat disappointed in the camera.

I got my poster a week ago and I absolutely love it. The picture has kind of like a grunge, vintagy look so it is a little blurry, but this bluryness is almost unnoticeable.

Its supposed to be (according to Kodak) a combination of VC and NC. UC was very vibrant and this is not. This is in between neutral color and vibrant color. This film was developed to be scanned.

It looks just like the Sweetwater's pics. The Amazon pic doesn't look right, maybe bad lighting. The Sweetwater pics are pretty true to color.

The pattern is not bright and vibrant but I don't feel it looks washed out either. For example, the yellow in it is a soft pale butter color, not a true yellow. I have 2 of these as I have to swap them out for laundering (I have two dogs). They have been holding up well with frequent laundering. I've also seen this pattern on the Walmart website (haven't checked in the stores). Walmart's website photo may give you a better idea on the vibrancy of the colors. Good luck.

No. There was no detail to the picture I received. The moon was not as bright and was not defined...fuzzy lines. The water colors were just different brush strokes of highs and lows with a bit of a darker sky. Hard to see defining line between water and skyline. And barely a resemblance of a moon reflection. It looked like something I would have done in Sophomore art class myself. You do not get what is pictured.

It is just a bad picture. The color is off white/beige. Take a look at the photos that I uploaded or search for my youtube review!

Thanks P. Romero. I would really like to buy from Amazon because of the price and what not but I don't want to have to pay $75 for a map update after I buy. Let me know what you find out. Thanks.

I find the colors over saturated. These screens are not calibrated correctly.

VERY IMPORTANT - Select the 'CINEMA' setting. In all the other settings, colors are off. But with the Cinema setting (I think that's what its called), colors are actually PERFECT! Amazing quality. At first I didn't know about this, but saw some discussion of it online. I am really very impressed with near photo-quality using this setting - but ONLY this setting has worked for me.

Hi Ron, in the FL sunshine I see it just fine. When setting it up you have several display colors to choose from so some may be better than others. I use one of the blues and it is perfect. Thanks

Gordon, I am no expert in repairing or maintaining maps but I have used Scotch Tape for that purpose and been satisfied with the results. I press the transparent tape down well to let the lines of the map show up well. Over time, some tape does yellow and may dry out a bit in a hot car, so I suggest that you try the tape on an inexpensive map and see if you like the results. I hope my answer helps.

The photos stacked to show color of lighting are wrong the others are correct! ? is also / Key and the \ is above the enter key. I hope this helps....Barry

I haven't run out of the color cartridge yet, but I don't think it defaults to black and white. I think the colors just degrade.
