sharp LC52D85U vs Sony KDLW4100....which is better
1952496
Sony costs more than the Sharp. May be a little better in black levels but, worse in other aspects, IMHO, not worth the difference in price.

JEM - I spent some time searching for the same thing. While you can check out the link below as well and which shows product specifications listed by Sharp, in short the 42U is listed as having Multi-Pixel Technology where as the 43U does not. Aside from this everything else is exactly the same. http://www.sharpusa.com/files/tel_dow_AQUOS_Full_Line_0107.pdf

I did check out PriceMad after I posted and there are way too many negative comments. I did buy the KDL 52W3000 from Amazon, thru their dealer, J&R-----.; I checked J&R; out and comments/reviews are great. I got it for $2199 with free s&H.; and it has been shipped, so they say.Whoopee!

I am torn between these exact same two camcorders also. Looking forward to your follow-up post!

I think they are both excellent tvs. I was deciding between the 2 models, and finalized my choice when I checked them out at the store. I went with the Sony 40v4100.

For what it's worth, I went to sharp website to check this out as I was also confused. It apparently IS 1080P. Here's the link: http://www.sharpusa.com/ForHome/HomeEntertainment/LCDTV/Models/LC32LE551U.aspx

Hey I know you guys posted a couple of weeks ago, but if it helps, I have owned both the 4065 and the new LN46A650. I can tell you that the picture quality on the new series is literally leaps and bounds above the older models. I personally think that the 650 series is one of the, if not the best available lcd tv on the market today. If you do not want to spend the extra money on the new series, the 4065 is much better than the 4061, has a better processor, higher contrast ratio, brighter screen for better color saturation, etc.

As a mater of fact, I talked to the company today. You can find the comparison on the Sharp sight but there is more to it. First the Dynamic contrast is 15000:1 for the 92 and 10000:1 for the 64, making the 92 much better. The 92 came out Feb 07 while the 64 came out Aug 07. Sure the 64 is newer, but the 92 has the contrast. The 92 has another level of backlight (the ambilight function) kind of like a table light with a pull cord, full once more and get a brighter light. You get the picture. 92 has detachable speakers 64 does not. DVI-I conection (for a computer) on the 92 where the 64 has RGB. and lastly, all connections for the 92 are in back while 64 has some on the side. As I said, there is a comparison chart found on the Sharp site. I'll be buying the 92, sure it's about $700 more but it's worth it!

Searching online for some factual specs for you, I found the following The PJ780VE has a 10x optical zoom with a focal range of 26-260 mm and aperture at f/1.8-3.4 Compared to my earlier Sony HD Camcorder of about 5 years or so ago, it has by far a better wide angle capability than did my old model. I would with it find myself stepping back quite a bit to gain a place from which to shoot videos that would be all inclusive of my subject matter. Don't know how/why the other respondent indicated what he/she did. Unless of course 26mm isn't wide enough for you? I found a few good reviews online, including this off-shore review: http://www.digitalversus.com/camcorder/sony-handycam-hdr-pj780ve-p15261/test.html http://camcorder-test.slashcam.com/compare-what-i-cmp-u-cmd-i-view-u-mode-i-docompare-u-lang-i-en-u-id-i-226-y-294-u-name-i-Sony%20HDR-PJ780-u-bname-i-Sony%20HDR-TD20%20(2D)-u-cmd-i-vergleich.html http://www.sony.co.uk/support/en/product/HDR-PJ780VE As for me...I'm totally satisfied with this camera's performance...as is my wife, who is working as a videographer and photographer at the National Western Stock show this year. Our videos are stunningly sharp and pleasant to watch! AND, the unit comes with a remote control as well, by the way. You may want to purchase a larger battery, and keep the original as a backup for when you run out of juice. I've not had any problems with premature battery drain, either. There are variants of this camcorder model, be sure to investigate each of them before ordering to make sure you are getting what you expected. Also...not get rattled by the "rattle" coming from within the camcorder. It has an internal "floating" platform used for optical stabilization when shooting videos...a most welcome feature!

after spending 2 weeks of research both on the internet and in store, i decided to pull the plug on the same sung 55b650 for both picture quality and price. you can buy either one of the 2 above tv's and you won't be disappointed with the picture quality. but for the current deal at beachcamera.com, you can have the 55b650 for $ 1479.00 shipped with the use of coupon code " ln55b650". you can't go wrong with this price and tv deal. sdechpross

I am looking at both of these models as well. I bought a Samsung 42" LCD 2.5 years ago and it is now failing. (Estimated repair cost for 1 of the 3 problems it is now having is $850.) Not a good track record for my money. So, I will probably go with the Sony. Has anyone had any repair problems with the Sony LCD's?

Hello. I am almost close to selecting KDL52V4100. All you owners of the TV, would u know if the screen has matte finish? I wanted to see this TV in BB but could not find it. so I havent seen it. I have seen SHARP and LG HDTVs and they have excellent matte finish. Can you please tell me how is screen finish for this SONY TV ?

The 52" XBR4/5 has the "floating glass" bezel and side speakers, which not only makes it wider than the 52" W3000, but also gives it a more elegant look. If you have limited space, then the W3000 is your best bet. However, if space is not an issue, go with the XBR4/5 with the 120Hz Motion Enhancer. It makes the picture "pop-out", like 3D. Really amazing picture clarity and color. I have the 52" XBR4 with PS3 setup.

I think you'd be much happier with the Toshiba 32RV525R 32-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV Amazon has now at $389 with free shipping. At you distance the larger screen will be much better and the 32" probably has wider viewing angle too.

Price being no object I've personally narrowed it down to:1. Pioneer PDP-5010FD (not the Elite series but still very expensive)2. Panasonic TH-50PZ750UBut, since price is an object I'm weighing heavily, I am most likely getting the Panasonic, maybe even the 700U (trying to decide if I need the extra features of the 750U)I've seen enough side by side, no matter which model it always seems to go Pioneer #1, Panasonic #2, and Samsung and LG #3 with a fairly large gap between 2 and 3.

If you're willing to put in several hours learning about it. The extra controls are nice, but not essential, and they are pretty much the same internals. If you want to do more video, the 60p on the D5300 will be nice I'm sure and that extra money saved on the 5200/5300 can be put towards nicer optics. D7000 is pretty good too, I've you're not too hung up about having many video features.
