50 inch Panny Viera 800u VS Pioneer KURO PDP-5020FD

First, off I know.. I've seen them. There black levels are intense. Second I don't have $2000+ to shell out for a set, second I'm fed up with Phosphor Trailing on the plasma's since I game a lot and pan the camera around a lot. That's why I want LCD, or DLP.

If this is any indication...my first serious consideration over the course of many months of research was LCD. I was sold on the Sony XBR5 until I began to notice the motion blur. I then moved onto plasma and was sold on the Pioneer Kuro, but eventually passed do to the price and weight. I then settled on the 61" Samsung 1080p LED DLP. Having researched and tested various models and display technologies...I have never been happier with a purchase. I now have the perfect set. Yes, it isn't as thin as a flat panel but it is still very skinny. Perfect picture with no problems whatsoever.

No motion blur...
No phosphor trails...
No burn in...
No IR...

No Rainbow Effect?

None at all. The major issue behind the rainbow effect is the color wheel which spins. The LED models have no color wheel.

Oh, yeah.. haha sorry about that.. should of known.. but I'm VERY NEW to the DLP Technology... that's awesome...it sounds like a great set. How's the detail quality on a 1080p source, like a Blu-Ray movie?

One word: amazing...

God.. I'm stuck here.. I mean.. the bigger size would be nice.. for watching Blu-Rays, but I'm not sure about how vibrant the colors are on the LED since I heard they are darker and not as bright as the standard DLP's which use bulbs.

Could you get some pics of your set playing a Blu-Ray on your DLP?
