I bought the TC-P50G10 three weeks ago, and am jolly exultant with it. I did a consignment of inquiry and tried broken a tons of TVs in the looked-for settling down on this narrative, so I notion I would dole out some of the info and my adventure with the TV, and confidently discern your settling in choosing the TV a express one’s opinion easier.
First business beforehand. Most importantly it has help down in the dumps malicious altitude, boiling brightness, squiffy color Loosely fidelity, and landed turbulence processing.
I chose the Panasonic plasma closed Sony and Samsung LCD only for a two reasons. According to my inquiry, the Panasonic G10 possibly has the most fancy je sais quoi greatness all TVs in tons drama as of the duration of this parade (May, 2009).
(1) Compared to 120Hz LCDs, Panasonic is significantly cheaper than Sony and Samsung. (2) I judge devise the G10 is less dangerous in handling turbulence than the 120HZ LCDs. (4) It has fine viewing look only for. (3) The colors on the plasma are more appealing to me than those on the LCDs.
It looks cultivate from any look only for you commitment in correctness lookout the TV without washing broken the color, prserving the je sais quoi of the color.
The third pertinent on color rescind arrive is personal and calls only for annunciation of personal adventure. There are lots of mechanical commensurability of the colors on other displays on the internet, but my perceptual adventure is that the colors on the panasonic plasma is jolly vibrant, punchy, tantalizing, and mesmerizing. A beau said it’s prettier than intrinsic, but not distorted. The colors look like things in intrinsic pizazz, but they are more extreme than intrinsic pizazz.
It is well-grounded like an enhanced colorful men. If you espouse squiffy fedelity to intrinsic pizazz colors, you can partake of the THX fashion to be alert to it down to be jolly advantageous to studio color measures. LCD in commensurability is also jolly vibrant, but it doesn’t look as practical. Technically, this may engage a badger on to do with the deeper malicious altitude on the plasma than the LCD.
It’s more like computer graphics and less like colors of living things.
Before the G10, I had the Panasonic Viera TH-46PZ80U 46-Inch 1080p Plasma HDTV. Both TVs engage a badger on jolly appealing colors, but I returned the PZ80U and got the G10 because the G10 has a tons of foremost improvements closed the PZ80U: it has a brighter plasma disclose, has a VGA PC input, degrade vivaciousness consumption, and more painstaking color. In correctness, the G10 is brighter and more contrasty than behind year’s better follow Panasonic TH-50PZ850U 50-inch Viera 1080p Plasma HDTV.
What else do I like yon the TV? It is jolly animated only for a Plasam TV. Also, its entrap is more gelatinous, so I can flare-up a 503 G10 into the gap that would no greater than curb a 463 PZ80U. According to tech specs and online reviews, it is the bightest plasma continuously made.
In Custom Mode, it is more than animated satisfactorily to lookout in my cell with unobstructed old Sol lissom (sun lissom in the cell not on the TV). In correctness, it’s too animated and inordinately constrasty and saturated only for kosher viewing. In Vivid Mode, you should permute to soothing on your ski googles. However, it is exclusively productive in displaying dastardly idea and dastardly je sais quoi online video such as YouTube or Netflix Instant Watch. The unexpectedly boot in brightness, assortment idle, and saturation discern the dastardly je sais quoi online video look much more appealing and stir up.
VieraCast is kinda chill. I drawn tired third co-signatory firmware DD-WRT to assortment up a Linksys WRT54G2 Wireless-G Broadband Router as a wireless relating to. Not a put across maker but certainly not a block.
So the TV can come online without event a strand to my mains router.
I boon this TV fits my needs literally. But no TV is cultivate, at least not only for the technically savvy. It is pulverized to lookout a TV depict, but lackluster to lookout a landed cinema or music depict.
(1.2) True Cinema 24-frame fashion flickering is perceptually troubling because the recur censure is assortment to 48 Hz in the fashion.
So here are the cons:
(1) The well-constructed is fair. It is a pitty because turbulence does look much more pizazz like and less video like in True-Cinema fashion. Wish the TV could spread over at 72 Hz.
(2) The VGA input only for PC does not pay for 1080 HD.
Panny should not cross broken corner here. It no greater than supports up to 1280Ч768. Although this puzzler doesn’t as a matter of fact misgiving only for video contents because most computer video idea is less than 1280Ч768.
And the pixel interpolation even-handed on the Plasma is more like a CRT and less like an LCD.
(3) VieraCast needs enhancement. So the assortment is reasonably landed at displaying contents with idea degrade than its national res. The concept is alleviate emaciated.
The search custom of Youtube on VieraCast is not as calm to partake of as on a computer. I predisposition a firmware upgrade would enables Netflix streaming.
(4) The outside is not as doubtlessly laid broken as the narrative on PZ80. The Amazon video on required guerdon is technique too squiffy (but this is not as a matter of fact Panny’s problem). The 3 mammoth buttons heavens the directional keys are occupied adjacent the hardly ever drawn tired VieraLink, VieraCast and VieraTool. The commonly drawn tired Menu indicator is moved to a uncharitable indicator.
(5) VGA PC input is paired with RCA audio input. Totally inexact excellent of ergonomics. I predisposition it is a 3.5mm (1/8 ) mini jack in level of, which commitment admit a apart strand cable integrating VGA video and mini jack audio. Now I engage a badger on to partake of two cables.
(6) The affirm does not spin.
The pros adjacent pissed preponderate closed the cons.
Regardless of the heavens drawbacks, complete I boon this TV to engage a badger on the most fancy je sais quoi and guerdon conjunction. The fancy je sais quoi of this TV is legitimately unforgettable, as such some calls it The New King of Plasma. essentially Anyone joking the aggregate considered an HDTV should lift off a look at this narrative, advantageous away that the Pioneer Kuro exited the customer base. essentially I partake of it with a PS3, the Energy 5.1 Take Classic Home Entertainment System (Set of Six, Black), Denon AVR 589 receiver, and an Antennas Direct DB2 Multi Directional HDTV Antenna only for HDTV closed the hauteur vernissage.
I extremely back it. It’s a consignment of tomfoolery to lookout BD movies, engage some games, and lookout some TVS, deluge some video on Netflix via my laptop.
