Full High Definition Progressive Scan Plasma Panel (1920 x 1080 Pixels)

Panasonic's renowned Full High Definition TVs feature outstanding picture quality delivered through Full High Resolution Panels. Panasonic designs and manufactures Plasma Panels and TVs Sets in-house to deliver superior quality.

 

Integrated High Definition Digital DVB-T Tuner

Renowned for producing industry-leading HD Digital Tuners - Panasonic has incorporated a digital tuner into the Television for superior picture quality. The Television also features an analogue tuner.

550Hz Sub-Field Drive

550Hz technology lets you view Full HD motion and still image with 1,080 lines of resolution. For even greater clarity with motion images, Panasonic uses its own unique image-analysis technology. This technology converts the motion in each scene into data. And each frame is practically displayed for a shorter length of time than in previous systems, to reduce aftereffects.

2,000,000:1 Dynamic Contrast (Native 30,000:1)

Plasma technology continues to provide superior Contrast Ratios. Panasonic's Real Black Drive System and Revised Filter combine to produce deep and rich blacks. Creating superior picture quality on a Television requires deeper blacks and Panasonic has achieved amazing black levels.

Rich graduation: 5,120 Equivalent Steps of Gradation

Panasonic Plasma TV technology has superior colour reproduction with the capbility to produce 134 Billion viewable colours. The large spectrum of colour reproduction is possible by generating 5,120 equivalent steps of gradation. Even the most detailed parts of an image are rendered with beautiful smoothness.

24p Playback

The 24p Playback function provides film-like, flicker free images at 96Hz playback (ie each frame is displayed four times).

x.v Colour™

 

Compatibility with x.v Colour standards lets VIErA transmit a wealth of colour information, resulting in reproduction of images with the same rich, vivid colours you see in nature. This is like expanding the width of the path the colour data takes.

Excellent connectivity with 3 x HDMI Inputs

Increase connectivity with other devices with 3 x HDMI Inputs.  You can for example connect to your VIErA TV a Blu-ray or DVD player / recorder, a Home theatre system, and a gaming console.

VIErA Image Viewer: Easy viewing of Full HD Photos and Videos

It's easy to view Full HD images with the SD card slot. Watch and show your photos and videos to family and friends right after you take them. Simply slip your SD card out of your camera or camcorder, and into your VIErA TV, to display photos and Full HD videos on the large screen. You can also choose from among 3 types of background music and 4 display effects. That's Genius Sharing.

 

VIErA Link: Operation with a single remote control

VIErA link allows you to control your VIErA TV, Panasonic Blu-ray or DVD player / recorder, Panasonic Home theatre system and Panasonic Full HD camcorder with a single remote, from the comfort of your sofa. Simply connect the devices to each other with an HDMI cable. That's Genius Connecting.

 

Sub-Pixel Controller for outstanding images with reduced jagged edges

This system maintains the image contours by adjusting each R, G and B dot within a pixel to deliver smooth contour lines even at diagonal sections, where jagged lines are normally conspicuous on a large screen.

PC Input for easy connection to your Personal Computer

Panasonic includes PC Input to easily connect a personal computer and take advantage of the large screen offered with VIErA TVs. You can use your VIErA TV for presentations and other applications.

Advanced 3D Colour Management - Effective colour correction without affecting colour balance

This system controls multiple colours at the same time to independently adjust colour hue, density and brightness to bring out the full beauty and richness of every image.

7-Day Electronic Program Guide Compatible*

Panasonic VIErA TVs provide a 7-Day Electronic Program Guide to easily view and decide which program to view. * Broadcast Permitting


 

ADVANTAGES OF PLASMA TECHNOLOGY:

Superb motion image display

Each pixel in a plasma display panel individually emits light. Compared to an LCD, which displays images by rotating liquid crystal molecules, the plasma display panel maintains higher resolution in scenes with fast motion. You'll love the clear, super-sharp images you get from VIErA when viewing action movies or watching football, cricket, tennis and other sports events.

Outstanding Colour Reproduction even when viewed from an angle

Plasma technology delivers superior colour reproduction. When you view an LCD from an angle, you'll notice that the skin tones appear whitish. With VIErA plasma display panel, colours look virtually just as good from a sharp angle as they do from directly in front. Digital HD TV broadcast transmissions are based on a set of specifications called the HDTV Standard*. VIErA reproduces 100% of the colour range specified in this standard. VIErA reproduces images from digital HD broadcasts in their true original colour, with minimal colour shift.
* Name of standard: ITU-R BT.709

Incredible Contrast and the ability to clearly produce the darkest movie scenes

Plasma technology produces outstanding contrast performance. The incredible contrast enables accurate reproduction of even the darkest movie scenes.

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY PANEL

Long-lasting TV Long Panel Life, Up to 100,000 Hours*

VIErA Plasma TVs can be used for approximately 30 years. Using high-quality Products for longer, and taking care of them is the first step to environmental conservation. A newly design phosphor process and rear panel process give the Plasma panel a longevity of up to 100,00 hours*. This is more than 30 years of viewing when watched 8 hours a day, before the brightness of the panel decreases to half.
*This measurement is based on the time taken for the brightness of the panel to reduce to half of its initial maximum level based on operation in the normal mode with dynamic content. The time taken to reach this level may vary depending on the image content and the environment where the TV is used. Image retention and malfunctions are not taken into account.

Lead & mercury free plasmas

VIErA Plasma display panels are lead-free and contain no mercury. This reduces the impact on the environment when recycling or disposing of them in the future.
