plasma sucks.

[kribar96]

wow preaty nice

[starchamberS]

I think you will notice this more in the first 200+ hours of use while the phosphor settles in.

Try reducing the brightness until then.

the difference between lcd and plasma is that lcds get worse with age and plasmas get better, FACT! , ive seen proof of this on numerous lcd tvs ,plasma is still the way to go,

[DjDirtyJUNGLIST]

this is verry odd ...

ive seen a few vids like this on youtube stating this problem with g10's ... May i suggest hitting the menu button, select "picture", then "veiwing mode" and set that to "game" that should help.

The people who have this problem might just have faulty g10's ?

take them back claim on ya waranty cos ive got a G10 run me ps3 through it play games like cod 4 , wipeout hd etc and not once have i experienced this !!!!

I posted a video a few years ago when I got my Panny PX70. Over 60k people viewed that so phosphor trails are obviously a real issue to many people. Look at my vid and see how bad the trails were on my PX70. However, I can categorically confirm that as the phosphor ages it significantly reduces and now I barely see it. I love my PX70, have now moved it into another room and have order in for a 46 G10. I EXPECT to see a lot of trails on gaming at first, but also expect it to diminish with time.

I have same plasma and its only visable on video.

[RedJoker]

wow, here I can clearly see phosphor lag again ... yellow flashing

[FairAtBest]

Now that I've had my TV for about a month and it is properly broken in I think I can properly comment on the phosphor lag now.

It's only noticeable under certain conditions with certain games, and generally only when you look for them will you even notice any trails.

When you are into a game there's little to no chance you'll see them. You'll notice your perfect screen uniformity, great motion handling, great viewing angles, low input lag, and great picture quality on a daily basis though lol.

[suckmypupil]

you could also get all those good things (besides viewing angles) with an LCD with LED backlights with local dimming. any good that plasma has going for it in the motion department is negated by these trails.

[FairAtBest]

That's your opinion, and you are entitled to it. I have found with my TV I don't even notice the phosphor trails anymore. I believe with age it has become much less visible.

I am one to notice motion blur and phosphor trails greatly, and I must say my transition from LCD to plasma has been quite positive.

[silverbogie]

Yeah, but the LED LCD cannot match a plasmas motion, and the input lag is high on LCDs...

[DuudeWhatDoesMineSay]

Very true

[TyrannicalGOD]

my Samsung PN58B650 does the same thing...hopefully it will subside when the phosphers harden with age

[FairAtBest]

I don't think my 50" G10 has become less prone to phosphor trails as it's aged (200+ hours), but I may be wrong.

I noticed the trails a fair bit depending on the game when I first got the TV because I was really looking hard for it, but now that I'm not constantly searching for phosphor trails everything has been perfect. I hope you have the same luck as me.

[b0ris360]

I've got the G10 and the green trails are terrible on COD4. It's nothing to do with the video camera. The G10 has pretty bad phosphur lag, that's all there is to it.

I'm hoping mine develops a fault so that I can swap it for something else!

About phosphor trails -> Camera: Canon SX100IS (30fps, 640x480).

[hashitoshiba]

Video was make by Canon SX100IS (30fps). Dynamics of G10 is really impressive.

[FairAtBest]

Those phosphor trails are really obvious. Hopefully I can deal with them when I get my G10 delivered :)

[St0o0]

Cameras always show them worse than they actually are, you prob won't notice when you get yours

[FairAtBest]

I think you are likely correct. I did not notice it as much when they let me try games out on it in the store before buying mine. I think during regular play it will be almost impossible to notice them since I won't be spinning around looking at the sky or anything similar.

I'm fine with a little bit of phosphor trails if it means I don't have to deal with all the issues associated with LCD TV's.

[St0o0]

I know, i've had 3 LCDs, 2 Sony and 1 Samsung, all of them where awful! Horrid blacks, bad viewing angle and awful bluring in dark scenes. Only problem Plasma has are phosphor trails but it's hardly noticable.
