I have a Sony Bravia 52inch HD TV and it's great. I'm actually thinking about buying the 46 inch TV + PS3 bundle for $1299 from Best Buy.

Has anyone played games on it?I just bit the bullet and bought the Samsung LN40A550 based on reviews. (Got ps3 for blue ray discs and I watch A LOT of movies.) I also like to play FPS and other games with a lot of movement and action. Has anyone noticed any sort of ghosting or blurring when they play games on it? Bad thing to wonder about AFTER I buy the tv, but I'm sure it'll still be worth it when I see my movies in a new-1080p-light.

Hi BelleBelleH can you please tell me what the Sony model/type you found that is similar to the JVC? Thank you.

Wow, thanks David!That was an incredibly informative post, and I'm sure others will benefit from it as well. Based on what you said, and pending reviews of course, I'm going for the M300. Low light performance is important, but the sony would have to take extremely better video in low light to be $120 better. The other sony features aren't all that important to me, though I am glad to see them finally move to sdhc. I have several of those on hand already.So it looks like the M300 for me unless it tanks in reviews, which I don't see happening.Thanks again David!

I have the sony and love it. I particularly like the fantastic panoramic feature - I dont see a reference to that on the panasonic description here. I have had the Olympus variants of the waterproof cameras in the past and they were quite good. Have not taken the sony into the water yet - I assume it will be trouble free (as the olympus cameras have been in the past). The picture quality on the sony is a step up from my past cameras. Having not tried the Panasonic yet, I recommend the sony.

Its not a dud. Mine had the same problems and I returned it. I ended up with the Sony ct260 and it is awesome.

I also have the KDL-52W4100.It has some clouding. It is not that severe, but I still find it very annoying. I purposely kept the box, and I may return the TV to amazon if Sony can't offer a fix.I spoke to Sony and they told me the reset the TV, which I am going to try, but obviously I don't expect that to change anything.

In all, I have (1) Oppo SE/83, (2) Sony BDP-CX7000ES (400 Disc Blu Ray/DVD Player), (1) DirecTV HDR-24, (1) Apple TV plugged into it. I then have the DVDO Unit it's self, plugged into both my TV (For Picture / Video) and a Denon AVR4806 (For Sound / Surround Sound). Because I rarely use my Sony - except to play RockSmith or an occasional Game, I have the PS4 plugged directly into the TV and the Denon. The PS4 does an awesome job, and I mean AWESOME JOB !! Of rendering a great TV Picture all by it's self. And the sound..... WOW !!

Since the v4100 was replaced by the v5100 you can get a great deal if you can find one. My local ABC Warehouse still had one and I just picked up a KDL-46V4100 this week for $800. So far, it's great. One thing is, the screen is more reflective than my Toshiba, so be ready for some glare depending on the room it's in.

I just ordered the 52V4100 as well. Was this close to getting the Panasonic Plasma, but after reading last week Pioneer and Toshiba are dumping Plasma technology, and next year Samsung and Vizio are phasing it out, I am led to think Plasma is losing the battle for some reason. Perhaps it's all the rumors of burn in, break-in periods, excessive heat and energy usage. I don't know. I went with the Sony. The price I got was too good to pass up ($1250 with free shipping).

I received my KDL-46XBR4 about 3 weeks ago. I have never heard any fan while watching it. And it gives an outstanding picture.

I never had the original, but the image quality is very very close to that of my 5DmkIII's. I have only used it in raw, not jpg, but I am blown away with the quality both at the base and at higher ISO's

I went with the E3200 I got for 99 bucks on Ebay. Its real close to this one minus a few features. I love it !

Mine is great. The picture is very good. I mean that because I have a panasonic 65vt50 and after watching that I can still enjoy watching this one. So it most not be that bad if my eyes can stand the change from the best you can buy to this tv. It's currently in my bedroom

I have the Sony. (Took 3 thousand photos and video on an international trip). It is mostly fine, but there are 2 complaints with which I agree on the message boards. 1. Blue purple tint and glare from the lens coating in bright sunlight. 2. In general, not perfectly sharp pictures usually. (I have 5 year old Kodak 5mp that is often more sharp). The good...amazing motion stabilization. 'Able to take photos in almost any light condition without the flash!! I also have some good photos from moving vehicles. Very compact and no protruding lens or lens motor. Quick startup. HD movie is ok also. Acceptable battery life. FYI. There are assorted complaints about the Canons also. I have now read enough not to expect perfect photos from ANY point and shoot, but like you, I hate to drag around that Nikon. (You might try one of the new cameras with a bit larger sensor, like 4 3rds).

yes i did, but i decided on the Panasonic due to reviews that i thought the Panasonic performed better plus my good friend has the same TV and i knew it was SWEET. Darks and Whites are awesome for me, in both dark and light rooms. Loving the purchase and would recommend. Cant say anything bad about the F8500 however, but I live the VT60

Give me around Labor Day, and I'll definitely pick one of these up. I'm still waiting to compare this with a Sony Z4100 to see whether or not I would like that any better than this. For now, tho, this still remains the best picture on the store shelf, as far as I am concerned.
