Great TV
(5 out of 5) by Arun M. Mathew on Jul 22, 2007 (Nashville, TN USA)We currently have this tv on our wall and connected it to our HD cable box and upconvert Samsung DVD player, both hooked up through HDMI. The picture is absolutely amazing! For the price, this tv cannot be beat....definitely recommended!

Don't See All the Hype in "Calibration"
(5 out of 5) by Dennis F. on Aug 21, 2007 (New Hampshire, USA)I've read a number of posts in this space (and other web sites) regarding the need to "calibrate" the picture on Panasonic and other plasma TVs after taking them out of the box.
Frankly, I like the look of the "Vivid" setting Panasonic defaults to and I can always adjust the other settings (brightness, sharpness, etc.) to my liking. My new TV is in a large (20' x 30') game room (pool table, dart board, bar stools and tables, etc.) which is very well lit during the day. As a result, I feel the Vivid setting gives me the best quality and most consistent and brightest picture than any of the other settings recommended in these posts.
Because our new Panasonic plasma is not our primary HDTV (we have a 60" Hitachi Ultravision LCD in our great room), we don't expect to be putting mega-hours of watching into the Panasonic like we do with our Hitachi.
Are there any other reasons to tone down the Vivid settings ? Will the TV "burn out" quicker and not last as long as normal or something ?
The TV picture quality and the look of the TV itself is great. We made the right choice, for sure.

Two Panasonic Lemon's in a row
(1 out of 5) by D. Jackson on Mar 17, 2008 (Jacksonville)Panasonic TH-50PX75U 50" 720p Plasma HDTV
I got this Plasma as a replacement from Circuit City for my first Panasonic 50" plasma TV that I paid $3200 for. The previous plasma's HDMI input went bad after 1 1/2 years. I have had this new TV for just 6 months and now the same thing has happened to this one. The screen just went green when using HDMI. It took 6 weeks and a lot of hassle to get the first replacement from Circuit City. One of the clerks there told me you have to complain for a month before they will replace the TV.
