BV7-40 mkIII 100Hz?

29 replies

Hi all,

me too I'm planning to go for the new BV7-40 mkIII (actually, I have a BV7 32, 18 months old).

Do you now if it will be a 100 Hz full HD, as the new F8 Samsung series (40" and 46", Full HD, 100 Hz and Motion plus). 

It seems that 100 Hz full HD tecnology, in this panel, give a fantastic images.

My dealer told me that only in spring 2008, the new BV7-40 mkIII will improve a 100 Hz tecnology...

Any rumors about it...

 

Sharp just side by side to the last Samsung lcd panel and the Pioneer plasma kuro last G8 generation blablabla...etc, and the improvement in the moving picture section is really AMAZING (even if the sharp panel has huge problems in areas like: real blacks and colours, or contrast levels) exactly the same that in the old CRTs world, 100Hz is clearly a must, and for my eyes the "no flickering" effect is essential when watching tv.

I really hope that B&O soon put into action this technology.

Regards. 

Was it a real B&O dealer ho said that? If thats is true they most change the name to Bv 7-40 MK IV. I don´t think they will do that this year.. Perhaps in the late 2008. 

My new MK III i haven´t picked up jet are already old..  [:'(]

I agree with moxxey. I have been buying Apple's Macs ever since 1985. Whenever I bought one (and there have been quite a few) there was something better that came along shortly afterwards. After a while you realize that this is quite OK, and that you do not have to trade "up" whenever a new spec is available. In the case of the Macs I'm probably not using more than 15% of the processing power in the one I'm using now, if that.

As to image technology and resolution. It will keep improving. I hung on to my BeoVision CRT for a long time, until I finally saw flat panels catching up over the last twelve months. I now have a plasma screen and a BeoVision 8, and I know I'll have them around for a long time, providing a lot of viewing pleasure -- no matter what's coming down the pipeline!

We already have flatscreens with a resolution they can't really display (Full-HD) intended for large screen projection. And people are speaking of higher resolutions yet, in the tech-spec wars taking place between manufacturers. There's a point at which one should say: this serves my purpose.

I will grant you that having a fast pulse (100Hz) screen is probably preferable to lower rates. Though you should realize that when you're in the cinema, you're watching 48 Hz projection (each image is shown twice, to trick the brain past the threshold where it discerns between separate images) -- and cinema projection works alright, doesn't it?

 

 

 

Now i finally have my BV7 MK III  ! ( In my bedroom=)

Take a look at my tread an you can see a hint of the image quality of my MK III : link   I don´t see how it could be better by 100HZ or 24p?? I can´t see any motion artefacts at all..

And the coloring are crisp and sick! ;) Take a look=)

i wouldn't get too carried away with all the hype surrounding 24p / 100hz etc

my brother just bought a sony 32d3000 which has all the bells and whistles picture wise - only thing is - we ended up turning them all off as the picture just looks weird , the much trumpeted 100hz feature makes everything look like it's moving in treacle and all the other oddball 'enhancements' utterly ruin the picture , so bad it reminded me of a loewe

 i think there's a lot to be said for bno's 'keep it simple' ethos

I wonder if you saw the latest Loewe Compose with 100Hz technology, and twin-dvb-s/c/t tuner, integrated harddisk. I guess not. Absolutely stunning picture and very competitive to the MKIII. Although I did not see the new MKIII yet.
