Deep
Blacks, Bright Whites, and 29 Billion Colors
The realism of a TV's image is strongly linked
to its contrast ratio, and this plasma features
a high contrast ratio of up to 10,000:1. Such
a wide range from black to white means great
depth and dimensionality with vibrant colors—and
this plasma can display an incredible 29 billion
colors for a superior picture. Deep blacks provide
excellent shadow detail during dark scenes,
while brilliant whites allow our plasmas to
render bright scenes with vivid realism.

Digital Programming Without A Cable Box
Panasonic plasma HDTVs with CableCARD slots
can accept a small card that allows you to receive
standard definition and high definition digital
broadcasts. No bulky set-top cable box—perfect
for a wall-mounted plasma TV. Contact your cable
company to find out if they offer this service
in your area.
Receive
Over-The-Air HDTV Broadcasts
Sports, movies, and original network programming
are all available in high definition from many
local broadcasters. Receive and view local over-the-air
broadcasts on this plasma in stunning HDTV clarity
using the built-in HDTV tuner3. If your cable
company passes through HDTV broadcasts from
local broadcasters, you can decode and tune
those as well.
Share
Digital Photos On the Big Screen with Photo
Viewer
The best images you can ever view on a Panasonic
plasma don't have anything to do
with HDTV. Share your JPEG photos taken with
a Lumix® digital camera on a Panasonic plasma
using the built-in SD card slot4. Simply insert
the SD card, which is about the size of a postage
stamp, into the SD slot on the TV and enjoy
a photo slideshow.
A
Single Cable Carries High-Quality Digital Audio
and Video
If you have even a moderately complicated home
theater setup, you probably have a pile
of tangled cables on the floor behind it. Imagine
replacing all those cables with a single cable
that carries both digital video and audio at
the same time. With the new HDMI standard, that's
exactly what you get. The HDMI connector on
this TV accepts high-quality digital video and
audio via the same thin cable, allowing you
to run one cable from the source to the TV.
A
Cinema-Style Viewing Experience At Home
This widescreen TV features a width-to-height
ratio similar to movie theater screens, providing
a theater-like experience at home. View HDTV
broadcasts and widescreen DVDs the way they
were meant to be seen.
Crisp,
Lifelike Details
HDTV broadcasts and DVDs offer more detail
and better color than analog broadcasts, and
it takes a high-resolution display to deliver
all that picture information. The high pixel
count of this plasma display provides fine detail
for outstanding HDTV reproduction. More pixels
also translate into less stair-stepping artifacts;
curved and diagonal edges look smooth and natural.
