What are the display speeds available on the Sony? Does the sony offer to change the pic once every 24 hours?

FWIW the times listed to change pictures are: 3, 10, 30 sec; 1, 5, 30 min; 1, 3, 12 and 24 hours.

Good info, totally makes sense. Im excited for the 3D and all that but I am also looking forward to the 240Hz in 24" and at the price as there is currently nothing like that now. Will probabaly have to use a different Blu-Ray player for movies to have that smooth look to them as I don't think the PS3 can play movies past 60Hz. Still curious how it looks. I personally like smaller HD screens and am curious how it will look.

Sony website says 910 is discontinued. It might be newer, but the screen is smaller. I had the 1000, and I would rather have it than the 910. Had to sell my 1000, but I sold it for the same price that I bought it for, 2 years earlier!

Jean, I've got a 65" F8000 and I've looked thru the book and in the emanual on the TV and see nowhere does it list refresh rate. That may be a term that gets complicated when you're dealing with Smart TVs. On the Samsung website, it lists a 1200 clear motion rate and the Amazon site tech details say 240 HZ. I can find neither with the pubs that came with it. I can only say that it's a superior picture for action and movement onscreen from my layman's point of view.

The reason is small... There is a 20000:1 Contrast Ratio but a 60000:1 Dynamic Contrast Ratio, aye, there's the rub as they must have something to do with settings as you'll notice when you pick a picture mode on a Samsung: There is a Dynamic setting as opposed to Cinema or Standard. That must allow for those differences. Thank you for making me realize the answer to my own question to someone else recently!!!

Depends on quality of the image that you want. The set up display shows the maximum hours at that quality

I talked to the Sony warranty people for over an hour today. This is some of last years 4k parts, so it does have a track record. The panel is new just coming out in September. The one thing I like about the Sony is that they are not getting the Chinese boards. Way too many quality control issues coming out of the student free labor in these electronic plants. The tech high school kids are working for free and the quality shows. Samsung and Panasonic have had quality issues in both the Plasma and LCD/LED, read all the reviews here and you will see what I mean. I own two Samsung's, and switched to Sony, because of returning 3-Plasmas, 3-blu-rays, and having my current Samsung LED fixed twice. I own a PS3 and it just runs, when my Samsung Blu-rays would not. See my latest review on the size of pixels for repair under warranty.

Seems a bit slow compared to what I experience. I've found that using an SD card with a fast write speed (45mbps or higher) and turning off auto-image-review in the settings really helps to significantly speed up shot-to-shot time. I'd also recommend checking Sony's website for the latest firmware updates (can be found here: http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/model-home.pl?mdl=NEX6&template;_id=1&region;_id=1&tab;=download#/downloadTab). Hope this helps!

To answer your first question, if you read closely on their site the 120 rate is referred to as the "Clear Motion Rate". This is not the refresh rate you're referring to. The software in the tv modifies the picture (not sure of the technical details) and simulates a 120 rate. This is my understanding - I read an article on CNET that described this in more detail. Hope that helps some...

I believe you're correct; Amazon has confused Samsung's CMR rate (240) with the refresh rate (120 Hz). This TV listed on every other site I've found is listed as 120 Hz. Also, on Amazon if you click through the size choices, all the other sizes of this model are listed as 120 Hz. Surprised more people haven't noticed/mentioned this.

I got mine from Fry's. It is the newer model with 128mb. There was some lagging in speed because the images were too high of a resolution. The quick fix is to use the WindowsXP powertool call ImageRiser. Free to download. Shrunk my 5.0mp images from about 1.7mb in size down to about 30k (at the 800x600 setting). Images now slideshow much faster and with a left over 512mb SD I had laying around, I could easily put thousands of images on it. Could not get the videos to work though, would be nice but no biggie. On the images where the pictures are bright and sunny, it looks great, but darking indoor images, the contrast is not so great. From 6 feet away, it is very watchable, up close at 2 to 3 feet, you can see the pixels.

The display will hold image for 45 to 60 seconds. More enough time to take a image

Great question and also note that this TV has a 12 ms response time panel. That's what I read somewhere.

I just purchased a Samsung UN40H5203 - a 60hz refresh. I am enjoying the rich color, but I find that for sports - football and basketball so far - the 60hz can't refresh fast enough to eliminate what seems to be a pixelation where movement is fastest. Otherwise, not issue. Perhaps if I were looking for a TV with a screen as big as the Berlin Wall I'd want the 120hz, but when I bought I saw a $200 difference between otherwise similar Samsung sets. Not worth the difference.

I am not totally sure, but from reading all the other reviews I might venture that date of manufacture has something to do with it and the speed x2 x24 x6 etc. I bought these based on the reviews. I would further suggest to read other reviews and specs, you can also go to a Sony site and inquire there as well. Hope this helps.

I would say a second at the most for duration. As for display flicker, I would say it resembles "slideshow" change.

After your post, I started looking for the "sparkling pixels" on my Sony, but haven't seen any yet. I never noticed any on the Sonys that I observed in the showrooms either. It does appear that the higher priced Samsungs have the shiny screen, but not this one. Something else that is easy to check out at your local electronics store. C-NET is great for reviews that look for these factors.
