Question: Do lcd tvs burn in images or burn out pixels?

(Posted by: BCC on 2010-03-06 12:18:18)

So I just bought a Panosonic Viera 42 " LCD TV and was wondering if this tv or lcd tvs in general burn in images or have burn out of pixels. I didn't know if this happens for lcd tvs or if that is plasmas or if that was an older problem once lcdscame out and it is resolved now. I have the picture mode on "Vivid " which looks really nice, but it does seem to be the brightest mode of them all. Should I just keep it on standard and only put it on "vivid " for certain occasions or does it not matter at all. The specs are 1080p, 60Hz, and 15, 000:1 contrast ratio if that matters

Panasonic does not make an LCD tv in the 42 ". You have a Plasma tv. Burn in issue is not an issue any longer on a Plasma tv. Just make sure you do not freeze the picture when playing video games on your tv for longer than 2 hours. It is up to you on which setting you put it on, your own eyes are the best judge on this. If you adjust the picture to the highest video adjustment then you are going to shorten the life of the tv. Hope this will help you out.

Plasma used to have the burn in effect but they do not now. LCD can get burned out pixels. Just like a computer monitor.
