Typical price: £2,500
What is it: 50-inch plasma TV with full HD resolution
What we think: Panasonic's best plasma pictures yet -- but they don't come cheap
What you need to know
Reviewed on: 9 October 2007
Tags: panasonic, watching, noise, pixel
We like:
HD picture quality; impressive connectivity; plenty of features
We don't like:
Expensive; some standard definition pictures look slightly rough; no sound with 1080p/24 feeds; reds can look slightly orange
CNET UK judgement:
The addition of a full HD pixel count improves the picture quality of this Panasonic model over the brand's standard HD ready models. But whether the advantages really justify the significant extra cost is open to debate
