My problem is that I have shadows that are created by text on the screen. And there are shadows that really discolor objects on the screen. Like Ill be watching some ones face and when it moves to a certain part of the screen it looks like she's got a 5 o'clock shadow. It is really apparent when a parental advisory warning comes on before a movie. You can see how the white text creates a shadow that extends horizontally on the screen.
I just bought the Hitachi UltraVision® P50V702. I'm using HDMI to go from my DirecTv HD DVR. I also see the same thing when I use YGB composite coming from my Marantz SD 480p DVD player.
I bought it from and installer and he said that he hardly even noticed it and that maybe plasma's do that. ???? I thought I was up grading not sacrificing quality for a bigger screen.
I've tried the built in wipe to get any burn in out but when the white screen comes on I don't see any burn in.
It's like this. If you were to look at some one holding a white stick above there head. Then if they lowered that stick behind there head level with there nose then you would see a shadow the size of the stick go right across there face.
I have included pictures. If you look right above Lucy Lui's brow you can see the shadow created by the chalk board frame. You cant see it that well in the picture but imagine it times 10. And sometimes bigger. The other picture is of the parental advisory. You can see the lines trailing off to the left.
I would just like to know if this is a bad Plasma or just the normal thing that happens with cheap plasma's. I only spent $1500 should I have got something more expensive?
