i just got my 2005fpw and hooked it up. some things are spectacular on it; browsing and photos really are very vibrant. however, i am disappointed in some things, and that may be because i'm coming from a very high quality 19" sony crt.
the motion blur is noticeable, but not so much that it effects games too much. i'd imagine that just a little more of a tighter response rate would be better, but that's just a wish list.
what does bother me the most is the black level, which i heard wasn't all that great. coming from a crt though, i thought maybe people were just exaggerating but perhaps they weren't. doom3 doesn't look anywhere near as good on the lcd as the crt, in my opinion. also, sometimes games, i feel, look "cartoonish" on the lcd. i'm not quite sure why i feel that way, but they just don't look as 'real' somehow.
anyway, this one has some backlight bleeding and a stuck red pixel in the center of the screen, so i will be getting a replacement. perhaps that one will be a bit different, but probably not in the ways that i want it to be.
i may try to trade this for a new viewsonic 191b. i hear those have a great black level and are even more responsive, but i would lose the widescreen....which really is nice.
anyone have any opinions on the black level and motion blur of the 2005fpw, when compared to crt's and other lcd's?
