Vivid Color Creation
The brightness, saturation, contrast and sharpness of colors are finely compensated in each scene. Highly vivid colors are produced with hardly any mutual interference. People's faces are also detected, and skin tones are beautifully corrected to ensure soft, natural complexions.

24p Cinema Smoother
The system analyzes the frames before and after, and generates and inserts three new frames. By displaying images with 96 frames compared to the 24-frame original source, smooth images are produced without the blurring that is typical of movies.

professor 4/22/2013 8:50:46 AM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 3/5	Rating: 5/5Fantastic picture Pros: I bought this for my Dad. I know and Trust Newegg to be the best in price and service, and they did well. I hooked up the TV for my Dad and used the old cable box and it was OK. Then I went and got him the new HiDef cable box and had to order a HDMI cable from Newegg. Once it was all together, It was the most spectacular picture that I have ever seen. Absolutely amazing. I have never seen anything quite that wonderful. Amazing color and sharpness, and can see the same from anywhere in the room. Would love to get one for myself. The 360 HZ backlighting gives it sharpness on sports almost as good as a plasma, without the big electric bill and heating up the room. And definitely much better than most LCD TVs. Way to go Panasonic. Cons: Audio is not that great. It would really benefit from an add on sound system. Have to turn it up pretty far in order to just hear it. Other Thoughts: For some reason it is heavier than most other flat screen TVs of the same size. I suppose that it has more circuitry and such. Maybe a more strongly built chassis. I also bought one of the 3500 joule surge protectors that Newegg had on sale. Great TV, need to protect it. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
