This of course has the effect of making the table a bit more difficult as trapping the ball isn't such a given. Look at where on the scroll the tips are touching.<img src="https://image.ibb.co/fHp5Hz/tpa_vs_zen_MM.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />This pic also gives you a good comparison of the lighting differences, where the pools of light are when it's only light from the table rather than an external source.With this pic, check out the bus model, how Zen has shading and contrast which gives the bus a truly dimensional feel. Compare the lit slingshot plastics to see how Zen's is not blown out. And then most importantly, check out that center playfield image for how vibrant the colors are, how black the blacks are.<img src="https://image.ibb.co/fDoMqK/tpa_vs_zen_JY.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Lastly, go into table view mode and scroll to the top of Junk Yard, check out the plastics. The pic doesn't really do it justice, as what becomes immediately noticeable is how the light interacts with the clear plastic as you move the camera. With the Zen plastics, you can actually see rainbows of refraction in it. You can also see how crisp the hi rez images used are when looking at the lettering or the water splash decal.<img src="https://image.ibb.co/kmFHVK/plastics_comp.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></blockquote>
