Here is a good uniformity shot for anyone interested. Im not seeing any dim spots or real hot spots during normal viewing, real happy with this tv so far. Also LOVE the 1/2 wide bezel.

Never have noticed any dim or hot spots on mine. The narrow bezel is awesome.

My viewing height was not quite high enough, in my opinion, so I used a formula online to determine tilt. I've got a 3/8" shim under the back legs so the set slightly tilts towards me. Picture is very uniform.

Picture looks great, I am really looking at making the move to the Mitsu, though I am thinking I am going to wait untill November as I have a 200.00 store credit I can cash in at that time from a previous TV purchase with the serivce warrenty. Hopefully the Mistus DLP will still be going strong at that time.

I'm loving my 65738, I have mine on a Mitsubishi stand that's about 18" tall and from the love seat in my 3D room my eyes are pretty much centered on the screen, not sure on that height.

i am still thinking about buying this. i have seen the 3d version below $1,000 and it is tempting.

I picked up a 60738 for $699 earlier this month. I'm very happy with it.

My Brother texted me this morning, said their 60738 was going to dump if I didn't want it, my 65738 sacrificed itself to save other things when my house burnt down last December... They dusted the lamp housing and soon after it quit on them a couple years ago, I have it working in a spare room right now, it has issues, but will make a good bedroom set i hope.

5.5 years. Nice.

I like RPTVs also. Mine is a JVC LCoS. But sadly, time and technology marches on.

In a couple of years, I will dump my 36" and 27" CRTs and move my RPTV to a secondary role. If it lasts that long. I have a spare bulb. Current one has been saying replace me for over 3 years now. But pic is fine.

Sad to see that technology go. At least LCoS lives on in FPTVs. Does the DLP live on there also?

My old 60mits DLP is still going strong. Gave it to my neighbor at lake last year when I got the 65in 4K and moved 60in LCD out there. Stopped by neighbors a week ago and saw part of football game on it while visiting.

They couldn't find emitter or remote, but I had saved my old remote, now have 4 pairs of 3D glasses, just need a new emitter for it.

 

[navychop]

Emitter? To glasses?

 

[dfergie]

Yes, mine melted, going to order a lamp for it, waiting to see if they find the emitter.
