Great shot, how many did it take before you got the screen perfect? (or am Ibeing [Ibeing, apples new android?] dumb not sure if flat screens update the same way as ones with tubes). I tried to get shots of the people watching TV but every time there’s a line across the screen.
Mike: With a TFT LCD, the individual pixels stay transmitting the same amount of light through from the backlight, until instructed to change. Unlike a CRT, where there's basically one point source of light at any one time (plus the afterglow of the phosphour).
That means that shooting good-looking images from an LCD is pretty much like shooting fish in a barrel.
