Panasonic TX-P42GT50E 42" Full HD 3D Black plasma TV

42'', Full-HD, 5,500,000:1 Native, 2500 Hz Enjoy the Ultimate 3D Experience
Active Shutter Progressive 3D Method
The display alternately shows images for the left and right eyes. The left and right lenses of the eyewear open and close in sync with this display timing to show separate images to the left and right eyes. By repeating this action at high speed, the brain perceives 3D images. And because this method displays FULL HD 3D images just as they are, both eyes receive 3D images in high, full-HD quality.
* 3D Eyewear is required for viewing 3D images.

Crisp, Clear Moving Pictures
2,500Hz Focused Field Drive
This original Panasonic technology detects image movements like the human eye, and optimises the drive accordingly. By achieving instantaneously powerful light emission rather than finely divided emission, it reduces the afterimages that cause blurring. As a result, fast movement is reproduced with excellent clarity.

Deeper Blacks Even in Bright Rooms
Infinite Black Pro
Enhancements to the panel and cells help reproduce images with smooth, natural gradation and deep, rich blacks - even when viewed in bright surroundings. In movies, the true, deep blacks faithfully convey the intent of the filmmakers, adding power and realism to the viewing experience.

Richer Black Details
24,576 Equivalent Steps of Gradation
Even highly nuanced black images in dark areas that were previously impossible to express are now rendered with incredible fidelity. Finer light emission due to a newly developed drive technology raises the steps of gradation by as much as four times over previous systems. Nighttime skies and other dark areas that were prone to blocked shadows are beautifully reproduced.
* When using Cinema mode.

Colour Reproduction Faithful to the Original
1,080p Pure Direct
The 1,080p Pure Direct function transmits and outputs high-quality YUV 4:4:4 30-bit video signals directly to the TV. This reproduces colours that are highly faithful to the original.

Beautifully Reproduced Crisp Lines
Pure Image Creation
Diagonal lines and edges are detected with high precision in each scene for all types of images, and optimal correction is applied to achieve beautiful, highly natural, noise-free lines.

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

Smooth Reproduction of Web Movies
Web Smoother
The blurring that often happens in web images is eliminated to produce naturally smooth motion.

Easily Convert 2D Images into 3D
2D-3D Conversion
Unique Panasonic technology converts 2D images into high-quality 3D images in real-time. The image depth is analysed from the compositional, colour and brightness data of each scene, to convert 2D images into naturally beautiful 3D images. In addition to ordinary TV programmes, this method can be used to convert a variety of 2D images — such as web content, Blu-ray Disc™ media, and photos and movies saved onto SD Memory Cards — into 3D images with a high level of precision.
* When a 2D source is converted to 3D, the 3D effect is slightly less pronounced than with 3D sources.

Movie Content with Smooth Playback
3D 24p Smooth Film
VIERA incorporates technology that analyses picture information in both the preceding and succeeding frames, and creates a precise supplementary frame between them. This suppresses the jerky effect seen in films, so playback is smooth and natural-looking. The distinctive tonal qualities and atmosphere of the movie are preserved, and you enjoy extremely lifelike 3D images.

Turn Your Living Room into a 3D Theater
THX® 3D Certified Display
In order to enjoy the original image quality of a movie, you need to have a display that portrays the images exactly as the movie's creators intended. VIERA has cleared the high standards set by THX Certified Display Programme. It reproduces both 2D and 3D images with cinema-like quality. Enjoy beautiful images that are optimal for movies.

Image Calibration Customised to Your Home
ISFccc Calibration Mode
An ISF-certified installer can calibrate your VIERA, so that image reproduction is customised to the actual viewing conditions in your home and your personal preferences. The calibration process provides the settings that bring out the full expressive potential within the image signals. Settings for contrast, tint, sharpness and colour are optimised to meet your home's lighting conditions for both daytime and nighttime viewing.
