As described in measurememnts here by Peter Putnam:
http://www.projectorexpert.com/pages/crtalive.htm
"Contrast readings on the VPH-G70Q were on a par with the other projectors, exceeding 80:1 - 100:1 on
half-white/half-black fields and over 200:1 peak."
How can this be?! I'm certain my RPTV, while smaller, has much blacker blacks and much brighter brights than the LT150 (600:1 contrast as measured by Thumper) and Sharp 9000 (claimed CR of 1100:1, and pretty close to my eye after seeing the LT150).
Right after seeing the LT150 I went home and put the same DVD on as I had just seen. The blacks were almost completely so, and the same scene from Twister that had me wondering if it was overcast or sunny on the LT150, was brightly sunlit on my set.
What's going on here? Is there something very different about the way the measurements were done?
Thanks
