Never heard of TECHWOOD but im sure you get a 16 day money back guarentee LOL

The links you have supplied are timed out.

Links always time out on the dixions websites m8

TECHWOOD are just rebranded models of somthing elses i think, the dixions group sells them cheapish

Ok, thanks. What about the camera, any good?

That so called camcorder has no tape, and generally, I can't stand Packard Bell. I can't think of one good thing they make.

I'm also curious why anyone would want a plasma screen when you can get other technologies that are better and cheaper.

Sorry, I know nothing of these things, what are the other options instead of a Plama TV?

LCD, rear projection and crt are the main ones.

The problem with plasma is it's only a new technology, and it's reliability is unknown and it's way overpriced.

Personally, I would have a look at something in LCD or even a large crt.

As far as the camcorder is concerned, some of the Japanese manufacturers make some excellent ones like Canon, JVC, Sony etc.

Do you have a budget or price range in both?

Got mine out the box Dead pixel, tuner box not holding settings, remote not working properly and the skin tones are bad also its actually only a 39" check the viewable size compared to true 42".

Question do all plasmas have bad skin tones ie anytime someone moves its like an O.S. Map. Thanks

I am thinking of getting a 36" CRT instead unless some one has a better idea.

Yeah, my price range is about £2000 for the tv - I want it to be flat and wall mountable as well....

...and about £200-250 for the camcorder. Digital of course.

Obviously the cheaper the better though.

Any recommendations?

Thanks.

I'd either go for a LCD or a CRT.

Both have advantages and disadvantages.
