I also have a Samsung and I don't think any of the above mounts would work with mine as their are no holes on the back of the TV. Their was a lump of plastic that came with the TV that slots in where the stand goes I don't know if that's a blanking plate or is where you fix the wall bracket to it.(it's in the loft so I don't have it at hand)

This may help - VESA standard link.

If you are not sure look for the 4 screw mount holes on the back and measure in millimetres the distance betwen hole centres. When you goto buy the wall mount it should specify on the packaging the VESA sizes it can accommodate. But if you are still not certain, then have a tape measure handy and insist on checking the fitting. It is also useful to have your screen size and TV weight in Kg handy (see manual).

I would add that you will pay through the nose on the high street.

The R74 I bought from Dabs at the start of the year was vesa compatible, as soulboy states look for 4 screw holes on the back, I got a cheap generic vesa wall mount (from dabs again) and it fitted no problem.

Have measured the back and the holes are 100mm & 200mm apart so i'm guessing i will need a 100/200 compatible mount any ideas were to look.I understand that there has been probs with the screws for fixing the mount to the Tv with Samsungs, i tried the screws that fixed the stand to the TV and that worked ok.

This is the one I got, will do the job for you.

It comes with screws and spacers to connect the tv to the wall mount, only use the screws provided with the tv for the stand.

You might be able to get it cheaper somewhere else.

Quick google and found this

Got this one http://www.maplin.co.uk/module.aspx?...9092&doy=25m11 from Maplins. Worked a treat ,had to modify slightly , but worth the money.
