On the SI website, no mention is made of a 1.1 gain material with the Sensation line, only 1.0 matte white material. Is this really a 1.1 gain screen?

I've personally spoken to the SI about this and had some others chime in as well. It is a 1.1 gain screen

William-I bought this quite awhile ago and at the time of my DM course (7/2013), it was up-to-date and complete w/hologram. You may want to check w/PADI to see if there are any course revisions, but to my knowledge, only the OW course was revised this year. Be careful when purchasing an IDC crewpack though: there are still vendors selling the old version (it does have the hologram), but PADI just came out with the revision to accomodate the new OW course (new slates, materials, etc). Now I'll have to purchase the new OW Instructor's packet and it ain't cheap. Good luck and enjoy the course.

Well MFin, my replacement set arrived last week and, thus far, it's been absolutely perfect. The crystal clear edges and deep blacks that sold me on this set in the showrooms is now alive and well in my living room. High Def looks absolutely sick. The "buzzing sound" that many owners cite (and admittedly, was very noticeable in my 1st set) is now virtually non-existant. I'm going to chalk my first experience up to a fluke. I hope you end up with a '5084 that meets or exceeds your expectations. I recommend you give it 1 last shot....good luck!

Matt, thanks for posting this. I had the same question and couldn't find an answer. Is it possible that the latency the reviewer perceived is due to upconverting the signal to 1080i, and you are simply converting the analogue to digital signal without changing the resolution? I'm not clear on whether converting implies *up*converting, couldn't really find an answer... but based on your feedback I think I'll give this a shot.

Toshiba seemly isn't playing "the game" bigger is better. Movie theaters have only a 500:1 contrast ratio. If you like going to the movies, you'll like pretty much anything better than this. Don't let your ego make the decision for you. Understand what they are actually talking about. See following article:http://www.practical-home-theater-guide.com/contrast-ratio.html Is Toshiba's mentioned CR static or dynamic? There are 2 kinds of contrast ratio - static (CR) & dynamic (DCR). From what I understand, a static contrast ratio of 800:1 translates into something much LARGER in dynamic contrast ratio (something like 8000:1 - sorry I don't know exactly). So, be sure to compare apples to apples - CR to CR & DCR to DCR. Toshiba uses what they call "Dynamic Contrast (4 Mode)". I don't know if its the same as what the industry calls dynamic contrast, but they seem to want you to "see it & compare" (see "Contract Ratio???" thread for others who have posted approximate contrast ratios for this TV, if you must have one)

I use my cans without any EQ or enhancement, soany change in tone or depth is instantly apparent. The brake in was quick & noticeable, (about 2 days) but the smoothing factor is still ongoing after a month & a half. If mellow is your target be happy, 'cause mine continue to have subtle changes one day & then back to previous the next. It drives me crazy so I plan to mod the pads again for peace of mind.

I can only speak for the one I received as the short directions didn't mention specific requirements for calibrating.It was only after I first attempted to calibrate that I became aware of this. I pushed the buttons according to the directions. A few seconds after it started a self-check, the screen flashed '1000.0g', which of course I didn't have. I did have a total of 1000.0g in a set of inexpensive calibration weights but I couldn't add them to the scale fast enough and the calibration was off accordingly.I did purchase on Amazon a single inexpensive non-certified 1000.0g calibration weight for $16.00 and it worked perfectly.I hope this helps you out.

Thanks everyone--I really appreciate your answering! A matte screen is a must have for me and they are getting very hard to find! Can't understand the attraction to those shiny reflective screens! You all have been very helpful!

Hello, the zs7 actually does allow the +1EV; set the wheel to P and push the up button twice. The first time you get exposure and the second push will give you the choice between +1/3, +2/3, and +1EV. I hope this is what you are talking about. Its kinda an odd place to put this setting IMO.

The pressure sensitivity I think almost certainly is a function of the screen digitizer however if I were to bet I would say that pen tilt can be upgraded by buying a nicer pen. Tilt can make up allot for varying line thinkness to make up for having of 256 levels of pressure sensitivity. Though I'm not adept enough that more than 256 would be used when I draw.We need an expert to weigh in. Any out there???

But is there a place that lists the applications for this item? I've been to spectreperformance.com, but there's nothing there on part number 5971.

One of the things I noticed when comparing the two on pioneers website is on the 6700 it says "NEW! The 10-Level Brightness Control allows you to customize the brightness of your screen. This adjustment can be made with 10 levels of brightness allowing you to adjust the MIXTRAX and illumination settings to your liking" im not sure if there is anything else that's different.

Dear 'Saiko,' I'm afraid I'm not sure what you mean. I do not have a web site. However, if you are referring to my review of the PT-AE4000U, then I hope it was of some help to you. It is very wordy and I apologize for that but, on the other hand, this is a very complex piece of electronics and it does take a fairly long time to learn. I tried to convey that. (Though it can be used fully satisfactorily right out of the box, most people will want to learn to 'tweak' its settings, something which is very rewarding.) After over a year, I am still completely satisfied with my projector and I stand behind everything I said in the review. So far it seems that no one has come out with a projector comparable to the PT-AE4000U in terms of performance, price, power adjustments for focus, etc., and the options for users to adjust the picture/lens settings, including the ones which are normally hidden. Even Panasonic has not introduced a "new, improved" model as this one is, in my opinion (and evidently theirs too), a superb video projector and is unlikely to be matched, much less improved, anywhere near its price by another one any time soon. Thank you for writing (even if the meaning of what you wrote is obscure, at least to me). Lawrence

V1 Viewer is really really bad, I've got one, it's useless. V3 Viewer is nice (I've got one too), with better resolution, its quality looks like the 3D screen on the back of the camera Fuji W3. It can play 3D photos AND 3D videos ! Don't buy a V1, you will be disappointed. Sorry, my english is very poor (I'm french)

Seems to be. Have not drop tested it, though. I have more then one SIII and have compared them. Buttons at bottom appear brighter with new glass.

I don't know for sure. I don't own a G1n, but If I were to guess, I would say that a single slot (screen) sounds like a g1n but combining more screens gives you possibilities that the G1n cant. I would guess that Zoom has a single-chip effects engine, and they combine them in 1 chip, 3 chip and 5 chip devices. Just a guess, but that's what makes sense from a manufacturer's standpoint.

I do not know what you are asking. It works perfect. Just lower your screen contrast and brightness. If you want to know the properties, I think that is manufacturer question
