3D TV-Irritating stuff.

HX850 is better than LG7200 - but that is my opinion. Unfortunately, I could not watch them side by side. They were at least 10m apart in the local Reliance Digital.
 
I have watched up to 1.5 hrs of 3D content at a sitting on my Pana 42ST50 without any issues. Same for my kids. Not everyone is affected by Active 3D watching.
 
I don't know why are you claiming 3d tv to be a irritating stuff but as per my knowledge on the same , I feel 3d is the next big thing in TV market and a time will come for sure when we will see 3d as a common thing for every household.
 
3D TV - whether good or bad - no effects or side effects, etc. is all highly personal. We cannot come to any general conclusion based on individual opinions. We can leave it at that.
 
It may be personal but forum board is a place where we have to discuss about the pros and cons of the new emerging tech and If this thing is arousing interest among the users, I think Its a great thing. We should go deep into the new techs and explore out the features of the same...
Yes. We can certainly discuss. I was saying that no conclusions can be drawn. :)
 
I don't think 3D is a irritating stuff as per now...They are becoming a main stream for Hollywood and we can come new movies launching in 3D in coming days for sure...
 
Experiencing 3D with active sets are always going to make you land in trouble in terms of picture quality, dizziness and crosstalk.
While If you experience the same content with passive set, I don't think you are going to face any problem, either it be the picture quality or any health related problems.
I have experienced LG 3D TV at my friends place and that was a amazing experience for me. I am also thinking to get a LG 3D if my budget permits in days to come.
 
I am of the firm opinion that if 3D is important as a feature to you, go for passive 3D - at least till glass-less 3D arrives in earnest.

Glasses free 3d will take a long time to get into main stream as per for 3d tvs, till that time passive glasses will rule the market for sure.
Even though Toshiba has launched their glasses free 3d tvs but I don't find much talk about the tech used in this.
 
I have an ST50 and have now watched 5+ movies and have had a terrific experience; I think my kids have watched more. I think issues are at individual level and perhaps the actual movie. The one time I had an issue was late night viewing and my eyes were tired/strained. I watched the same movie the next day without any issues.

The number of titles is increasing and so are the number of sets available. The Sony, Pana, XPand consortium is getting more organised ( just wish Sony had universal glasses too ;)) and I think that will help in adoption; much like the Bluray vs. HD DVD battle/fragmentation that took place a few years ago. I've been selective in watching only "recommended 3D" content so far and have not been disappointed at all.

3D Movies Watched: Toy Story 3, Hugo, Coraline, Avatar, Smurfs, Journey to the Centre of the Earth, Tangled, Lion King, Beauty and the Beast, Step Up.

That's great that you haven't came across any issues in watching 3D contents till now and that also with active 3D sets...
 

LG has come up with a new algorithm which claims to do 1080p 3D. But that algorithm only works for models in which the panel runs at native 240hz where it displays 4 frames instead of 2 and cycles through and hence is able to achieve Full HD. But only a couple of their top end models i.e LM 8600 and LM 6700 ( most probably but not sure) make use of this feature as its panel has native 240hz capability. All other LG 3D models achieve only half resolution.

I have demoed the LM8600 and the 3D is pretty darn impressive.
 
There is a lot of wrong or half information about passive 3D and thus misconceptions.

The common argument is active 3D is full HD whereas passive 3D is half HD. This is technically correct statement because in passive 3D the picture is shown as polarized with half the pixels at zero angle and other half at 90 polarized. The passive 3D polarized glasses show 1920x540 to one eye and 1920x540 to other eye. Thus this is half HD and technical truth.

The reality is quite different.

In passive 3D, the FHD picture would be seen as half HD; then it is at DVD quality. Would any HD enthusiast accept passive 3D? Would this be acceptable to anyone for that matter?

In active 3D the 1920x1080 picture is shown to each eye alternately in rapid succession. Thus the brain is receiving FHD picture.

In passive 3D, the 1920x540 picture is shown to each eye simultaneously. The brain receives half HD picture from each eye at the same instance and combines it and thus diagnoses a FHD picture.

In both cases, the brain still receives 1920x1080 pixels.

If you looked at passive 3D pic with glasses and close one eye then you will get half-HD but not otherwise.
