Bravia V550 and Ghosting

[JK8]

So im seeing ghosts.
Its really become unbearable now, even mild drama scenes the actors faces become deformed and distorted, MTV is just a blur.
Movies from my HDD was also super clear, now its just painfull to watch even the HD files of Top Gear.
Playstation as well.

Anyone having these problems?
I have a feeling the insurance sent me a grey model...

It does, its just that, Im not sure what to do now, get another V series, take my money to another store and get another V550 or another model all together.

I got ghosting, but I haven't had time to get my setup to optimum, cables, signals, settings etc. These can all to ghosting I believe.
Try switching "Noise reduction" OFF - This seems to be a popular setting to get rid of ghosting during sports scenes for the Bravia v series.

There is service menu fix which was seems popular on previous models, but use with caution, as I am sure you can do more damage than good if you slip up..

The way Tafelberg work...is you phone them...give them your invoice number, tell them its still under garentee...they send a sony techie to your house to assess or fix.

Add...Tafelberg have great after sales service...

That is indeed great support from Taffelberg, but to those who didn't buy it there, need other solutions:

1. Stalk and befriend sony techie guy.
2. Bribe with fair amount of promised beer.

I'm sure these guys must be for hire somewhere if you don't come right yourself...
