That is simply a TERRIBLE image to compare on, nevertheless,
the right half shows a noticeable case of the dread edge engancement.
It is terribly out of focus for most of the image.


I suggest using a much better test: for example, Leno or one of the
better ABC sitcoms (e.g. Less Than Perfect) with a far shot,
or really good sports shots in 720p or 1080i.
