So those lines can appear, but they are not actually in the pattern itself?


Try to measure them. You laughed at me a page ago along with something about too much pot or booze. Wink

Notice they show the line as being non-jagged or distorted.

Yes, they draw it as a smooth transition, but it's not if one were to zoom in and slice it fine. It's a stepped (because it's digital after all) gradient and you can also measure the discrete, quantized nature of that with a picker as well.


This is the part I was agreeing with you on. My point was against wide bars or steps. Finer gradient pixel (digital) sized - yes

OK then. Two 'plateaus' separated by a 'ramp'. No hard 'step'. Still has apparent bands. Can you measure them?

I owe you an apology, Andreas and Diddern, for picking out the wrong close-up of Prometheus before!

You see; I moved the kick stand from right to left, and took some shots while doing it, and when I finished I just browsed through quickly and ignored the once that had discolouration in them, and without giving much thought about them at all, and I ultimately ended up with the worse one I could pick.

I feel stupid now for posting that, seeing how many pages was written about it because of it, but I'm new at photography so how am I suppose to know all that. And I honestly didn't see how bright the others were.

It wasn't until I posted the Das Bot shots yesterday I first noticed how dark they were. So it seems that by moving the camera around a bit one can make the shots look very differently.

However; Das bot shots were taken at seating distance so those shots may have yet another anomalie in them.

But I think you will see now, that my pj is far better at tiny details and/or showing them with a better light than those shown earlier. You and Diddern mat not change your mind about it, but it has for me.

If you like I can email you the originals and you'll see they were all shot at the same time. Right click and you get all the data needed. Or just take my word for it.

Have a look at the better once..

Interesting how a standard Marquee compares to the JVC. With this specially selected reference scene.

It should leave no doubt that CRT is sh*tty as the MTF is terrible, and it look distorted and artificial.

You should zoom your pic bigger to better match the jvc, you should use the shots which i originally posted. My original jvc pic was so much better than what you posted here. Still you need to know that crt is not able to match the MTF and details of a JVC. It is very very soft and lacking.

Yeah i agree, every standard CRT projector looks soft boring and washed out, i wonder why anyone would still be running projectors with so bad MTF and low bandwidth.

Crt is not soft and lacking if you do not zoom in all the way to scrutinize. It's only when someone insist that it is better than a digital jvc and able to provide the same MTF and details that they need to be educated to know the facts.

Sure CRT is soft and lacking, your displaying a 148Mhz signal on a projector with less than 80Mhz bandwidth, that eats up resolution, together with the bad MTF, if thats not soft and lacking i dont know what to call it.

Anyone like to post ramp pictures.. Very Happy

Maybe with different players and processors, and see what happens.?

Your experience is PRECISELY why there are a host of people on here saying that using screen shots to evaluate a PJ is an utter waste of time. All someone needs to do is play around with exposure, film speed settings, camera location, etc. and they will get wildly different results. At the end of the day none of them come close to accurately displaying what is really happening on screen.

I Agree to a certain extent, but why my close-ups became lighter over the only one that became dark tells a story too, and that is that it's NOT that dark. I think we can agree on that and without having to prove it. And knowing that, one can narrow down the anomalies to a minimum and to get an idea of how it looks. That's all we can do really, but for everything else I'm with you.

ok, below are the pics of my barco cinemax (no mods using moome v3 gamma) and jvc x700 below pics. As you can see, I do not expect barco analogue stage to compete with a digital jvc in area of MTF and details, its simply not possible, but you can see my barco is not too bad without mods. I can't see the pic posted, can someone help to upload here?

I think my shots is still so far the most accurate representation between a Barco cinemax cine9 and jvc x700 comparing details and Mtf ignore the gamma and brightness. Stridsvognen shots do not reflect well sorry.

I never made any shot..

I think your pictures show very well what the CRTs low bandwidth do to the image.

It also shows how important it is too look at the pictures, and confirm if they compare to the information on screen before posting them. Very Happy

You can include me in that host. Unless you are looking at specific test patterns, screen shots provide nothing more than a fun or frustrating activity... depending on who you are. In my opinion screen shots are a waste of time and that's why I hardly ever look at them and never post them.
