After tornado season, I am thinking of finally getting a wide screen HD TV. However, after reading some consumer reports, and hearing different things about them, not sure if it is a good idea.
My big questions is...how does chaser video look on them. Apparently only things in "HD" look really good on them. But regular TV (like the local channels) look pretty bad, much worse than a analog TV. I currently have a high end Sony TV that is big and has a flat screen, but it is bulky and not HD.
When I go to look at HD in the stores, I'm not that impressed over my current TV. The stores usually show sports or movies that are HD, but when I ask them to change the channel to local or something non-HD it all looks heavily pixelated. I'm wondering if the majority of the chaser video (that isn't HD) is going to suffer the same problem.
I just wish I could get the detail like we did when the Hurricane Charley documentary was on the full size movie screen at the Miami Film festival....now that's a way to see chaser footage.
