Lg 55la6200 tv?

[blackraven]

Does anyone have an LG 55LA6200 TV? I am looking at buying one for a second TV. I have compared it to the Samsung 55UF6400 and prefer the picture of the LG. Any recommedations?

I am also considering this Samsung PN51F8500 Plasma based on this and other reviews-

I have narrowed the TV search down to the Samsung Plasma or the LG 55LM8600.

My friend just got Samsung PN51F8500 and it's really frustrating he. He select "standard" picture and its bright for about 10 seconds then the picture darkens up. Why in the blue hell will it not stay on that setting and stay bright. When he pay over $3500 for a damn tv I'd expect it to work righ.

With the Samsung TVs there is another setting for auto brightness to compensate for room conditions. I suggest turning that function off and see if the other settings stick.

Exactly, he needs to turn it off. Read here about the Eco Sensor-

This TV along with the Pansonic VT series TV's give excellent pictures on par with the Pioneer Kuro's and possibly better than the OLED TV's coming out.

Plasma TV's have made a come back and the best such as the new Samsung models can compete with LCD TV's in bright ambient light settings.

Go for the Samsung plasma. While LCD's can look quite good, they cannot touch the best of plasma at any price. It is the technology itself, not the price of the panel. Plasma's do a better job at making film look like film, and video look like video.
