One can NOT go by these pictures. Camera lens technique is critical and most of us are AMATEURS with cameras.

One can only trust in one's own eyes. Last year lots of folks were reporting color blobs here but at the Amazon site 5 star ratings outnumbered 1 star ratings by 1,000 to 1 !! None of those 5 star reviewers saw any problems.

I posted a picture here of my PW 2012 and lots of folks saw color blobs on my unit which I could not see on the actual screen with my eyes. Most folks have some sort of eye defect which may not allow them to see faint blobs.

Its possible that even the PW 2013 may have defects noticeable to a very few folks. Hopefully, I won't be one of them.
