As the question shows, my sofa is about 6.5 foot from my TV.

If I upgraded to a 50" screen would this be ok would I see pixels/artifacts?

I know there are charts online but would appreciate real life experience

Thanks

Too close for SD, but perfectly fine for HD.

Thanks Nigel, I usually only watch HD anyway, I don't have much time to watch so am quite selective and stick to the HD channels or Blu Rays

Perfectly fine then, even closer if you wish.

Excuse the mini hijack, but can you please tell me where I can find the charts re distance as OH and I having a disagreement about where to wall mount the TV (HD and SD viewing). Many thanks
