5 out of 5 stars Awesome TV, great price!.......2007-09-28

I had been in the market for a new t.v. for quite sometime. I had wanted to by a HD LCD, but my budget could only handle so much. When I saw the price on this t.v. I immediately purchased it. For this price your not going to do better. The ambilight feature is incredible when you watch in the dark. It really helps your eyes adjust to the changing picture environment very well. I was very particular in getting a set that had a high contrast ratio, and this set has a decent dynamic contrast ratio, not the best, but again...your not going to do better for the money. The other, image processing, features are incredible and offer a ridiculous range of picture adjustment. Oh, btw, this is no small tv...it measures 50" wide, but it is worth it. It is very sleek and modern looking. One last thing, the options to hook up compenents seem endless. The SD drive is awesome, no more looking at pictures on a 3.5" camera lcd. For gamers this is an awesome set: 1)unlike plasma the lcd doesnt burn, 2)wide options for hooking up game systems, 3)the PIP allows you to watch tv and game on two equal sized screens, so you arent missing anything (ie...football!!). Do your self a favor and buy this tv!

5 out of 5 stars Phillips Ambilight.......2007-09-18

The TV is amazing!!! Have the Ambilight on in a dark room while watching a movie and then turn it off. It feels like your TV just drastically shrank.

5 out of 5 stars Great BIG TV.......2007-07-12

I purchased this through Amazon/TigerDirect. Great price, less than half of what Best Buy calls for.

The TV is enormous. Much larger than the 42" description would imply. At first, I didn't think it would fit.

The picture with Ambilight is amazing. Much better than the two other HD sets I own. The tuner on this TV caught much more than the Sony tuners on the other HD sets, probably a hundred more channels. It found over 400 channels including analog on my Comcast cable.

The remote needs to be aimed directly at the TV to work. The interface connectors on the bottom of the set would have been better with a diagram of them on the back. The side buttons aren't labeled too well either.

It did accept all of the media I used, including USB thumb drives and such. The manual is a trip and a thick one too. I'm still not sure what everything does.

I like it.

4 out of 5 stars Good but not Great.......2007-07-11

First, this is indeed a "cool" tv. Looks great turned off, and very cool with the full ambilight. Also, decent speaker, easy hookup and good stand.

That being said, the remote is kind of low-grade - does the job, but not great; and the picture is only good. whatever you do, DO NOT go look at the new Elite plasmas or you won't buy this - cost aside.

Overall, a happy purchase for the price - but not the best HDTV quality - not even by a longshot...

5 out of 5 stars WOW.......2007-06-15

Let me start by saying this TV completely spoiled regular tv that we are all used to. As my buddies and I watched our first HD movie with the ambilight full surround, within 10 minutes we all agreed watching tv without ambilight will never be the same again! The ambilight brought the tv to life, it's a whole new world. Picture quality is great, and I love the picture auto-format option. One cool feature is the demos you can view on live television. The philips tv sort of splits the screen and shows you what your picture looks like with and without Clear LCD and Pixel Plus 3. The difference is extremely noticable.

Sound is good, its loud, clear, and nice base.

Although the screen is 42 inches diagonal, the tv is approximately 50 inches wide. This is due to the black border of the tv and the white background that was added to reflect the ambilight. It's a brilliant looking tv, very luxurious.

One thing I was dissappointed about was the memorycard/media option. I like to edit and create videos and convert them to DivX, Avi, MPEG files. I thought I would be able to play those types of media files right off my of SD card. Turns out you cant. Just pictures, music, and .alb files.

The remote is very nice looking, and the back of the tv has multiple inputs.

Overall, your tv/viewing experience will never be the same once you get used to ambilight. It really makes a world of difference and you will love it... especially with the different modes of ambilight. You will fall in love with the tv, bottom line.

          4 out of 5 stars So far so good.......2007-06-16

          I got my headset yesterday and so far, so good. The sound quality is good; I can hear well and people have no complaints about my talking. The previous reviewer warned about how hard it can be hanging it on the ear and that part will take getting used to. I expect to have to say to callers "Hold on a moment while I put on my headset." But it can go on either side of the head, which is good. The on/off button on the cable works. The volume control works.

          An even better payoff is that although I got this one to be compatible specifically with my Motorola cell phone, it also works fine with my aged Lucent cordless handset, and I wanted a new headset for that too. This is inexpensive enough so I've just ordered a second headset so I can keep one attached to my old cordless at home and have one to travel with my cell phone.

          I've given it only 4 stars because I haven't had it long enough to see how well it survives wear and tear. However, it's off to a good start.

          1 out of 5 stars Get something else.......2007-01-12

          I really thought that the Plantronic's name meant quality. I gave up trying to keep this thing on my ear. Not doing my homework properly, I didn't understand that the conical ear piece is the part that hangs on to your ear. The rest of the frame is, I guess, for show. Its pretty unstable and kind of flops around in your ear. I never got comfortable enough with it to evaluate the headset for its sound quality. Another wasted $35.00 I am pretty soon going to give up buying anything on-line. There's something to be said for old fashion brick&mortar stores where you can see an item and try it before you waste money on it. This wasn't worth the time and expense to return.

              Product Description

              Kodak EKTACHROME 100 Professional Film is a daylight-balanced color reversal film designed to meet the special demands of commercial photographers, especially those whose primary business is catalog photography. The film features very fine grain, very high sharpness, and exceptional color accuracy. EKTACHROME 100 Professional Film is an excellent choice for photographic applications where natural color rendition is required, i.e. commercial images of furniture, fabric, and clothing - particularly those with reflectance characteristics that often adversely affect color reproduction. The film is intended for exposure with daylight or electronic flash. You can also expose it with photolamps (3400 K) or tungsten (3200 K) illumination with conversion filters. The exposure range is 1/10, 000 to 1/10 second without the need for filter correction or exposure compensation. You can use this film to produce color transparencies for viewing with 5000 K illumination. You can also print the transparencies by photomechanical methods or by the photographic methods of direct duplication and direct reversal printing. They can be scanned for graphic-arts reproduction as well.
