May have the opportunity to get my hands on
a Panasonic TH-50PHD5UY 50" Plasma.
I had never considered Plasma before because
I never was really happy with the lack of black
levels nor the fact that I have actually seen
burn-in damage done on these display devices.
Two years ago I had the opportunity to attend
a studio press event in NYC. They were using
plasma monitors to display menus and DVD footage.
Every single one of those plasmas has burn-in
damage by the end of the day.
I also have read that watching 4x3 television
for long periods of time can cause burn in damage.
So, my question is while considering the purchase
of a plasma set, what are the dangers of image
burn-in?
Also, if anyone further cares to answer....
I presently own a Toshiba 57" RPTV. Do I really
want to give up that set in favor of a 50" Plasma?
Yes, the 50" Plasma is 1080i HD capable, but wouldn't
image quality look better on a RPTV?
Thanks, everyone, in advance.
