Great stuff -- I have a Panny TH50PX60U - and I have been using the zoom feature and it seems to do okay for most applications when it's needed. When watching an SD picture, I have black bars (by default) on full aspect and if I set the aspect to 4:3 , the sidebars are white. To prevent the "burn in"/ phosphor mismatch-aging, I run the set in zoom mode.

When watching a widescreen film, yes, the top/bottom bars concern me, so I flip between zoom and full, works ok.

Just curious though, if 80-90 percent of my viewing is actually done with true HDTV pix, and I occasionally flip between WS/full for a 480i DVD and zoon during the movie, do I really have to worry all that much about phosphor aging?
