3 Questions Important Before Buying a 3D TV

 3D movie viewing experience is different than watching a standard-format film (2D). It is not impossible to bring that experience at home.

Of course, for it needed a television set with 3D capability. Some of the leading electronics manufacturers were already preparing their products.

Before deciding to buy or not, here are three important questions to be answered prospects 3D TV, as quoted from Wired, on Wednesday (12/01/2010).

1. What is the room is Enough?

If you want to get a 3D experience that 'serious', the user must choose a TV with a big screen. Ideally, a minimum screen size is 42 inches.

TV of that size would need a large room as well. Not to mention, watching distance should also be optimal.

Guide, for impressions with 1080p resolution, multiply the diagonal screen with a 1:56. That is, for 42-inch screen, it takes a distance of approximately 1.7 meters watch or 170 cm.

As for movies 720p, multiply the diagonal screen with 2.3. So, for 42-inch screen, a distance of at least tontonnya is 2.4 meters.

2. Is money enough?

The first thing that must be known, the 3D movie on the LCD screen sometimes force must be low-resolution movie. In addition, if the resolution is imposed on High Definition, the image quality can actually go down.

To get the maximum experience, preferably 3D TV using plasma technology. With at least 42-inch screen size, you can imagine how much it costs!

3D movies could be so would have cost more than non-3D movie. Moreover, to obtain high satisfaction, the ideal format is Blu-ray.

If used in 3D TV still requires glasses, prospective buyers need to consider also the cost of glasses. Multiply by the number of viewers at home (father, mother, child and perhaps a few relatives who often stop by?).

3. Does 3D Content Options There Are Enough?

In Indonesia, hopes to 3D content seems to only come from the Blu-ray movies or other digital formats. While 3D television still seems far away.

Never mind the 3D television broadcasts, some just like the pay TV providers are still reluctant to provide services to the High Definition format.


If you can answer positively to the three questions above, please contact the store or electronics manufacturer penchant for buying 3D TV. If not, for now just enjoy the 3D viewing in theaters. Yet almost every month there is a new 3D film was released.
