Rear projection??
FMD we are behind the times.
Plasma is the way to go these days....
i realise what reefy said was a joke
Actually that is completely wrong.
In an outside application, plasma is the worst choice. this is because of the layer of glass over the screen, which promotes reflection.
Plasma is far superior to LCD at any size when it comes to sports reproduction.
However, LCD has superior black. Far superior. Again, another feature which is required for reproduction if bright, sunlit areas.
LCD screens are just f*cked. Any size LCD , no matter what you hear, or what you see, they are just f*cked. go into any store on a saturday & get the manager to change all channels onto AFL & you will quickly see just how f*cked they are.
The DLP rear projections system used by LG is far superior to LCD(even though it uses mini lcds), but it suffers from reflection & luminance issues as well.
The best big screen for black, sports & non reflection is projection with a good quality wall screen.
But, the best picture, of any, os still the good ole high quality crt.
So lets go through the list & see where your TV stacks up.
CRT
Projector
rear projection(some systems)
Plasma
LCD
