I was at e-zone today. I know R71 bordeaux have 5000:1 contrast ratio. I came accross sony spec which said 1600:1 ratio. I was puzzeled by such a huge difference. Did some google and found out that samsung is talking about Dynamic contrast ratio and sony was talking about static contrast ratio. This is akin to PMPO and RMS values used in audio world!!!
