LG 42LF66 Review
LG 42LF66

Although LG's 42LF66 boasts a Full HD resolution (1920 x
1080) it falls just short of the Korean manufacturers LY range
in terms of specification. The 42LF66 is equipped with an 8-bit rather than a 10-bit panel and as such loses the 'Wide Colour Gamut' of the top end LY series.

The LG 42LF66 may not get top billing, but this is still an impressively specified machine. A Full HD resolution of 1920 x 1080 is accompanied by 1:1 pixel mapping which allows sources such as standard or high definition pictures from Sky (1080i) to be mapped pixel for pixel to the screen.

High Definition (HD) is where the LG 42LF66 excels. The level of detail and sharpness is outstanding, with the benefits of 1-to-1 pixel mapping clearly visible on the large 42in screen. The improvement that a Full HD resolution screen offers is not huge, but its there, and clearly visible.
