Hello all,

i am a LCD owner and my grandfather has allways had mitsu Dlp/RPTV seems like ever since i was a kid..any ways wanted to know what this 120hz effect is like?? I was told its not like 120hz on LCD's no Soap opera effect..can some one break this down for me on how its helping the tv and its effect..


I play alot of games and am tired of light leakage dead pixels burn in etc.. Also have any gamers noticed a difference w/ 120hz on vs. off??

I am looking at the mitsubishi 60" 737 and was wondering about the prvious questions for that praticular unit, but any answer is good thnx...Hopefully no RAINBOW effect:)

Mitsu's first DLP was the fall of 2004. How old are you? :)

Tho they did make CRT 1080i models prior to that. We had one from 2001 to 2004. Big ole monsters.

My understanding is that DLPs are inherently less subject to motion blurring than LCDs even without Mitsu's "Smooth 120hz" due to the nature of the two technologies. Mitsu claims Smooth 120hz will reduce that even further and have some little marketing graphic or other supposedly displaying this (see below), but I have yet to find anyone who has said they see the difference between turning it on or off in the TV menu for most content you'd expect you might see it in, like fast motion sports. I seem to recall reading someone claiming to see some impact on scrolling text.

I haven't noticed a difference myself in the limited amount of on/off testing I've done with it, but then I don't use mine for gaming, so maybe it would show up there somewhere. I do leave it on tho on my 60737, which so far I love dearly compared to our 2004 62725.

I am 25 and he has had huge ass mitsu's that I would say read 1080i also I beg to differ since I have a RPTV that he gave me in 2001 still in back bedroom unfixed bad board or something it very bulky...But i really dont know if thats a DLP or not to be honest.. It was not a CRT/tube if thats what you mean by CRT??? But I really dont know RPTV's tech that much at all so thanks for the great info Geo:)

The older big box RPTVs from Mits used 3 projection CRTs( a red, a green, and a blue) mounted in the base as compared with their DLP RPTVs which sit on a stand which they introduced in 2004 as stated by Georule

f it weights 300lb+ and you can't move it by yourself, it's a CRT RPTV:)

DLPs weights aound 100lb.
