KDL32D3000 Motionflow Video
By Vincent Teoh • Thursday, 14 June 2007, 4:58 pm BST
Captured 3 separate video clips of the Sony Bravia KDL32D3000 LCD TV with the [Motion Enhancer] set to “Off“, “Standard” and “High“, and mashed them into one. Watch this KDL32D3000 Motionflow video and see if you can notice the benefit.
Won`t work for me
LOL I cannot tell the difference between all three! I guess I don’t need MotionFlow!
You should pause the video, click into the timeline and move forward with the left arrow button on your keyboard. If now you compare the top and bottom video, you should see some “ghost lines” around the white bar at the top video. This effect is almost invisible in the bottom video where the Motion Enhancer is set to “high”. You can also see this effect around the yellow bars, too.
The overall picture will strongly benefit from this.
i cant play the video in Internet explorer or Firefox, in FF it crashes and in IE it just refuses to play.
All three look blurry to me.
What does that mean, I should stick to plasma?
dotslasher, I’m using FF and it works.
I guess Mike and a few others must be blind, because I can clearly see the difference – much less ghosting on the bottom one.
Because of the compression of the video, and depending on the state of your own monitor, it may be difficult to detect the difference (which was much more obvious in real life). Try pausing the video towards the end – you should see more ghosting on the white bars in the top clip (Motion Enhancer Off).
Guys, I have bought the D3000 myself a few days ago and I can tell you that there is *huge* benefit using the motionflow. These video cannot show much due to the compression involved but still you can see some difference only if you pause it. For the nonbelievers go to a showroom and check it out with your own eyes. D3000 is a top-notch telly, probably the best around in 32 inches now.
I got the 32D3000 on Saturday and it’s an amazing TV, the best I’ve ever seen. It was the review on this site that persuaded me to buy it so thanks for that. As for MotionFlow, I’ve been using it on the default Standard setting and haven’t noticed any blurring at all even with fast-moving 60 fps games on the PS3 and Xbox 360.
The D3000 is probably the most feature-packed 32″ HDTV you can get right now and although very expensive, it’s worth every penny in my opinion. Even SD sources, a weak area with most LCDS, look great on this TV.
After I posted, I saw the bit about pausing. I can see the difference with the pausing but not in motion.
Still, I have a 32D3000 coming on Friday and hope its all lovely.
Is the Motionflow 100Hz feature still available if the TV is used with a PC at 1360 * 768 1:1 pixel mapped over HDMI?
Had a demo of one of these sets with a PS3.
The motion flow feature does improve motion handling over standard LCD’s, but during fast camera pans on games detail loss/softness/blur does still occur to some degree. (less noticeable with films/tv)
Definetly an improvement over non-100hz LCD’s, but nowhere near CRT motion handling IMO.
The Difference is quite apparent.. if u see the Top picture is Blurry & the image is laggy due to low Refresh Rate
The bottom picture is crisp, smooth with no laggyness or Ghosting.
Try pausing it ..u ll see that the Ghosting…. i.e. the Bar will become Blur & Split
You can definitely see ghosting in the top one, a little tiny bit in the middle, and next to none in the bottom. I’m having trouble deciding if it’s worth the extra 500 bucks to get motionflow (KDL52wl130 vs KDL52wl135). It certainly is an impressive technology.
