    Full debayer will look softer than the half out of the camera. It's less edgy...

    It doesn't mean that it is actually softer, though.

    if it's bothering you that much, send some files in and have it checked out.

    What is your video card output set to for the NEC Zak?
    I have had issues with NEC's not scaling some resolutions well on the analog side in presentation systems. Does the output res match the native resolution of the monitor? If you are outputting 1080p to a non-1080p monitor it can be an issue. They have gone very cheap with scalers on the analog side these days.
    DVI should be better.
    It is not just NEC, I see this issue with a lot of low to mid-price range computer monitors these days. There is a reason those Panasonics cost more.
