Samsung HC-R4755W 47-Inch HD-Ready Rear Projection TV
Great picture at a great price - but you have to work for it.
As other reviews have indicated, the auto focus does not live up to expectations. You can spend time manually converging the blue and red, but no matter what you do, it will only remain converged while the TV is at its current temperature. If you shut it down, let it cool down, then let it warm up again, most likely the convergence will have shifted. This is why the auto focus runs automatically (unless you disable it) a couple times as the TV warms up. I don't have an HDTV input source, so I can't comment on how that might look. You can get the picture looking really great when playing DVDs once the convergence and colors are set. I recommend using good cables and the component inputs for the DVD player. I have a non-HDTV Dish Network receiver (might to have to see about an upgrade) plugged into the SVHS port, and the picture is quite good (in fact the picture is clear enough that you start to see flaws in the digital compression). I really enjoy watching DVD movies in 16:9 ratio, but when I have to watch anything but widescreen DVDs, all my input sources are 4:3, which on this TV brings me to my biggest gripe. When watching a widescreen TV in 4:3 mode, of course there is dead space to fill to the left and right of the picture. This is expected, but on this TV the dead space is projected in a light grey color. This annoys me. I would give this TV a higher rating if the dead space was black. Once I have the picture adjusted just right, a good DVD action movie with lots of explosions going on and the stereo and subwoofer cranked up, it is quite blissful...
