I had an optoma hd 70, now I have the HD20. Is the HD 25 a big enough jump in quality that I will notice?

I'm deciding between the same thing, and I have chosen to plan on buying the VT25 over the GT25 because it has deeper blacks and apparently (I still need to ask around more about this) has true 24p Cinematic Playback, which is very important to me, I'm a cinema snob. The VT25 also has like one additional HDMI port or something, which really does not matter. The one thing I hear that the GT25 has over the VT25 is the ability to convert 2D to 3D (as best it can I guess). I really don't care about that, though. If it wasn't intended to be in 3D, then why would I want to do a cheap conversion on it? I suppose it could be cool, but I'm just not interested in that. I just want to see things in the best way they were intended to be seen. I am waiting for a price drop for the VT25, that's just way too expensive at the moment.

I haven't seen a brand new 3D for this year. The ones I have seen are a couple years old, but with this one its great quality and you don't need powered glasses like some other models. However normal HD bounces btw 720/1080 and is not Always without the 'streaky blur'. If mainly 3D viewing, I say it's worth it, if u can handle a few glitches-but can maybe be repaired with the perfect settings.

Not at all. I was worried about that as well,however I have not had any problem with the clarity of the HD.

Hello Gary; Sorry I can't help you with the comparison between the HD33 and the Epson 5030UB. I have a Optoma GT700 3D and purchased the Epson 5030UB in December. It has great color, clarity and brightness. I use my as a portable for playing mainly blurays. One nice feature is the zoom. Once I get the picture within the area of the screen I can use the zoom to square it in to the frame. The reviews I read convinced me to wait until this projector was available. Hope this helps.

I think if you can find the HD at a decent price I'd go with it. I got mine (Ultra HD) at Best Buy on sale for $169.99 plus I had $10 dollars in rewards coupons, so $159.99. I think there is about a $50 +/- difference in the two. I love the video on the HD, but I've seen two Ultra video reviews that look pretty darn good in quality. I'm thinking of getting my son the Ultra non HD for Christmas, just because he will trash it quick and why spend the extra $$$.

The HD10 doesn't do very well in low-light environments. The video quality is poor with a very grainy image. The camera works really well in the outdoors during the daytime.

the b640 has most of the specs of the b630, but with the glossy finish of the b650. I am a fan of the 120hz and you notices the different with your blu-ray player or PS3 and the dead HD-DVD. It makes things pop-out a little and look a little unatural, but is like 3D on some movies. When you turn it way too high you get the halo effect and some blocking on fast scenes. Most people will buy a blu-ray player sooner or later so I say just go with the 120hz for the future. If you turn it off it is just like watching the b550. Most antenna broadcast will not pop out as much, since the source is not as good.

yes, 1080p is better than 720p and you will notice a difference even at 20ft away (given the source material/player/source is in 1080p)!

the newer model has 1080p HD, and looks a lot cheaper. The old one is 720. They updated it 2 weeks after I got mine. still love it 2 years later. even though I have the 720 I don't need an upgrade. hope this helps

Thanks for the good info, 80'sGuy. You mentioned 24p cinematic playback on the 3D model. I read somewhere that the G25 will be a problem for movie buffs because it does not have the 24p cinematic playback. Is this true?

Thanks for your response. So... Is there any difference in picture quality?

What I want to know is how much better is the picture quality of the FlipHD versus the Flip. I have the Flip but don't love how grainy the picture is. Can you realoy tell a significant difference? Is it worth upgrading?

Yes, I used this projector to replace an optoma HD20. Mine is also ceiling mounted, I used the same mount in the same location.

Bill,I can vouch for the Flip Ultra that looks good on TV so I would think the HD version looks even better. I was comparing this camcorder with Kodak's new HD Zi6. I think that it can record at 60 frames per second instead of 30. It would be good if anyone has seen a comparison of the two to share on this forum.Mike

Doggone. And I was just thinking about springing for a samsung 4671 (a consensus 5 stars from Amazon consumers). The main thing that bugs me about the V2500 series is the omission of Normal mode when adjusting aspect ratio. Since the set automatically interprets a 480i signal as 720p or 1080i, you're stuck watching nothing but short fat people unless you can control aspect ratio from the DVD player and set-up box. It wouldn't matter if all source material were in hi def, but unfortunately most is not. Sony made a colossal blunder, but apparently woke up by the time of the 3000 series.
