Ahh, pixel turn on/off time.....

Posted by unclestu52 on August 17, 2007 at 20:32:45:
Most current plasmas have times in the 5 to 6 millisecond rates. Many LCDs have the pixel turn on/off times in the 12 to 15 millisecond time and the afterimages become rather annoying in fast action scenes. I know exactly what you are talking about and have seen it many times. The latest generation (but be careful to check!) LCDs are now boasting times in the 6 to 7 millisecond times and should have that issue put to rest. There are still a lot of 'slower' sets still being made, but I have seen some sets at Sam's Club even in the 9 inch sizes with that kind of fast switching.

Just be careful, and ask. Most sets with the fast switching times are quite proud and usually advertise such times prominently.
