| We did a lot of shopping around, and this was the best deal on a 50 inch tv. But not only was it a great price, it showed up as promised, in perfect condition, and it looks great! Excellent picture quality. |

| It has a great picture. It's the best screen I've ever seen. DVDs look much better than ever. The sound is good, too. A great looking set. |
Great TV but now $100 more expensive than a year ago?

Nice TV and great picture. Its a shame it doesn't have a PC connector I could do with one of these now so I wouldn't buy this model again for that.
However I have had no problems with it and the picture is excellent.
I find it odd it is $100 more expensive in Jan 2009 than when I bought it in March 2008. Very odd. |
AMAzing TV especially so for the price

I was going to get the 42 Pana VIERA during the sale but it was sold out so I scrolled down a little and saw this 2000 plasma for 700 off.
Since Ive hooked up HD I must say my family still oos and aahs.
I have always had good experience with anything Panasonic but this is beyond that. Amazing TV and the sound is also much stronger and clearer that I had thought it could be. If there is a difference with 1080, I couldnt see it.
You cannot go wrong with this unit. Its excellent !! Like a Pana... |
Panasonic Plasma wins hands down

| I have had 2 Panasonic Plasma TV's and I can't be happier with them. One of them just quit on me this week, and so I went to shop around. The basic reason is that we lived for three years on the beachfront and the sea breeze got to it. So I went out shopping for another TV. Looked at LCD and Plasma, but LCD have been having more technical problems lately, also their level of black is never quite the same, plus there are serious issues when watching sports or any film with a great deal of action. Thus I ended going back to a Plasma. Was about to purchase a Full HD from Samsung, but found its image quality worse than my old Panasonic. So I went back and purchased another Panasonic, equivalent model to my older one, only difference was the price, about 25% of the price of my first plasma. Thought about purchasing a Panasonic Full HD, but since I watch Full HD films on my Panasonic Projector, and this TV will be in the basement I went with 768p. |
Total satisfaction

| The performance of this HDTV has been flawless. I chose to not get a 1080p set to save a little money, and this set has proven my decision right. I base that on the observation that at 9 feet away, where I sit, I cannot see the individual pixels. In fact, I have to be less than 4 feet to see them on this 50" screen. Be prepared, though, if you're new to HDTV sets. While your old analog set had almost nothing to adjust, these HD sets have many adjustments and settings. The manual is quite good, however. If you do need help, their customer service line answers quickly and the folks will talk you through it. Another plus for me was that "Consumer Reports" rates Panasonic HDTVs as the most reliable. |
Incredible picture, awesome value

This TV is stunning! I connected it to DirectTV yesterday...just watched Star Wars Episode 1 broadcast in HD...amazing...picture was so good I almost actually liked Jar-Jar.
I investigated HDTVs thoroughly before buying- here's how I picked this one.
(1) Plasma vs. LCD. In this price range, the picture's better on plasma TVs, hands-down. LCDs are brighter and have more contrast, but that comes with a big sacrifice in terms of the amount of details visible in the image. The image is more lifelike and shows more detail on the plasma displays. Burn-in and screen life are much less of a concern with today's plasmas and should really no longer be used as a reason to go LCD.
(2) Panasonic. The only plasma TVs with better images than Panasonic are the Pioneers, but those are way too expensive. The image just looks better than other plasmas...deeper blacks, more realistic colors, more details visible.
(3) 720p. This was the toughest decision. I was really on the fence between 1080p and 720p. 1080p is obviously the higher resolution, and in this line-up the 1080p TVs have a 30,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio as opposed to the 15,000:1 for the 720p. However, these are just specs on paper; the HD channels only broadcast in 1080i or 720 p anyway, so it doesn't make a difference when watching TV. I haven't bought a blu-ray player yet and probably won't until the prices come down some more...so there's no advantage for me yet in DVDs. Finally, in reality, I am sitting about 8-9 feet away from the TV in my living room...at that distance, the difference between 720p and 1080p is not really noticeable anyway...even you have Blu-ray. So given these factors, I went with 720p because the cost difference was about $500.
Some people have complained about the reflection/glare on the screen on this TV. At night (when I watch TV), there's not much reflection when the TV is on (I watch in cinema mode)- in dark parts of the screen you can sometimes get a bit of reflection, but it's not any different than that what you get with a regular CRT TV, and it doesn't detract from the viewing experience.
I ordered from Amazon- the TV was shipped and arrived right on time. Spent this weekend watching...the HD channels look great on the 50 inch display. I also bought an HDMI-DVI cable and was able to very easily hook up my laptop to the TV- used the laptop to watch DVDs, and even Youtube looked good at 50 inches! I highly recommend this TV to anyone. You won't go wrong. |
pictures a thousand words, so look at picture
