"However, this advantage is greatly compromised by the lower contrast ratios. Simply put, this means LCDs are not as effective as plasmas when it comes to displaying deep blacks or detailed whites. LCD blacks are often grayish, and the whites can be harsh. You can lose details of figures moving in shadows, and, similarly, brightly lit scenes can "wash out" details as well."

I believe the up and coming LCDs backlite with LEDs takes care of this problem??? I'm not sure of their price so they may not be feasible at this time.
