hi folks

was wondering if any of you were running this pj and what is this machine capable of running in terms of resolution. Recently upgraded my scaler with a Lumagen Radiance XD and got pro calibrated with the radiance set to 720p ... can this pj run any higher or is it best just to leave as is?

Would i see any difference running 1080i on my HD material?

as far as i am aware running this pj at 1080p would be pushing it hard and can smear the image

It's all personal preferance, many like 1080i for HD as it preserves the origional resolution and can be sharper. I didn't like the artifacts I saw when I tried 1080i on my G70 so I went back to 720p72, then I wanted more resolution and have ended up with 1080p48 and 1080p60.
