Product Description
Manufacturer's Description
With 50Hz video signal input, Motion Picture Pro 2 creates 100 frames/1 sec from 50 frames/1 sec. This increases the frame count to allow natural frame-to-frame transitions, which results in smooth motion images with high resolution. With Motion Picture Pro 2, the VIERA LCD also detects areas with motion and activates backlight blinking for those areas only, greatly enhancing resolution. Smooth reproduction of movie images a cinematic effect is achieved to preserve the quality of images that are recorded onto movie film at 24 frames per second.
Images are beautiful even when viewers are sitting at an angle to the TV. The IPS Alpha panel has a wide viewing angle, so the images are crisp and clear even when viewed from an angle. The same high-quality images can be enjoyed from any place in the living room.
This kind of expressive power will thrill science-fiction fans even dark scenes are elaborately detailed. Improved panel contrast combines with the I.S.C.(Intelligent Scene Controller) to achieve a high, 10,000:1* contrast ratio. *Dynamic mode only
The term "x.v.Colour" was proposed as a designation for products compatible with xvYCC, which is an international standard that allows enhanced colour reproduction with a wider colour gamut than before. The crumpling of the fabric is clearly seen and the 3D effect is effectively expressed. The unique texture of the fleece-type material is much clearer to see. *x.v.Colour is a registered trademark.
In addition to brilliant picture quality, VIERA models offer the easy operation made possible by VIERA Link and the SD card slot. VIERA Link lets you operate other connected Panasonic AV components using only the VIERA TV's remote control unit. The majority of the VIERA line-up is equipped with a slot for large-capacity SDHC cards. You can view a slideshow of your photos on VIERA's big beautiful screen just by simply remove the SD memory card from your digital still camera, and slip it in to the slot.Product Description

Replaced my Toshiba 32WLT66 with this a week ago. Prior to buying it I read several reviews, and subscribed to "Which" - Panasonics are generally highly rated there. Set up was easy, and the difference is impressive. Both picture and especially sound are, as I'd hoped, much better. 1080P is definitely better than 1080i, and I can see and hear the difference. But I'm only comparing two models, and the Toshiba 32WLT66 is obsolete, and the equivalent only costs £364, so not really apples for apples. However, the improvement is marked, and particularly noticeable for Ps3 games. Details previously unseen and unheard come to life.
Only reason I didn't give this a 5 - There are 3 HDMI ports. One at the side, and two facing directly out of the back. The issue is that I hang the TV on a wall. Heavy duty HDMI cables cannot be fitted to the ports on the back of the TV, because there isn't enough room for the cable to bend, and my bracket only leaves 3/4". The Toshiba's ports pointed down - no issue with a wall getting in the way. So, buyers be aware, if you're connecting more than one HDMI device, and mounting the TV on a wall, either make sure your TV is set well out from the wall (I think you'd need a 2-3" gap) or buy more flexible HDMI cables.
My cables are sorted, and I'm delighted with the TV - it's excellent.

We have been looking at Flat Screen LCD's for a few years now, but haven't found any that we felt worth updgrading our CRT to. We were holding out for a 32inch with 1080p. We have seen WHICH reviews over the last couple of years raving about the Panasonic Viera and making them Best Buys, so when this model came out we eagerly awaited their review while comparing quality in the shops as well. They loved it, we liked it, so we bought it. It arrived on Wednesday last week, set up Thursday and haven't looked back.
It's absolutely brilliant! Everything that you could possibly want in a TV. I personally don't find the setup or remote awkward as has been said in other reviews, but then we have a Panasonic DVD/HDD/VCR so we are used to Panasonic menus. Perhaps for someone unfamiliar they are a bit tricky?
We are thrilled with everything from the picture to the sound... We are SO glad we waited!

Having bought this screen just over a week ago, with the minimum of reviews available, i must say that i'm extremely impressed with it.
Setup was simple but with enough adjustments to keep your average videophile amused, if only for a short while. There are some very slight issues with "whiting" in corners (from backlight) when displaying completely black screen.....pretty marginal though and not distracting.
SD TV performance is fine when viewed beyond a distance of 6' or so. DVB tuner is simple to navigate with the option of using a top-up TV card for extra channels.
Sound seems ok but for the most part i'm running external a/v sources through a 5.1 system. The internal BBE Viva system seems perfectly adequate for TV purposes and has several settings for music/speech etc with a decent amount of "ooomph".
Colours are rich and vivid and blacks are the deepest i've seen on an LCD screen. Fast moving images are extremely smooth and Panasonic's 100hz Motion Picture Pro 2 + V-Real 3 tech appears to work a treat.
My current highest-def input is my Xbox 360 @ 1080i via component video and the upgrade from my old system (Sanyo PLV-Z4 projector @ 720p) is quite startling. Vivid and even Normal picture presets are so vastly more defined, clear and smooth that i'm quite happy running it in Cinema or even Eco mode for the time being.
Comparing this set to friend's HD Ready screens is a happy experience and i honestly believe that this is probably the best 32' LCD screen currently on the market. You pay a premium for kit like this but it's certainly money well spent!
Can't wait to get the full HD experience from Blu-Ray @ 1080p/24p.

One very slight flaw - but whose fault? It's difficult at times to follow the ball on clay tennis courts. Will HD broadcasts remedy the situation?
