Panasonic VIERA TC-P50ST50 50-Inch 1080p 600Hz Full HD 3D Plasma TV Reviews

I don't want to rehash everything the other reviewers have noted, so I'll try to keep my points fresh and quick. MAIN POINTS: 1. You really need to adjust the picture settings on this TV (duh). Doing so will result in exquisite picture quality. I had heard that this TV gives "flagship quality at a mid-range price" and I am here to confirm that; Game of Thrones on Blu-Ray looks absolutely incredible. (Skip to the end of this review for my picture settings) 2. Virtually no input lag for Xbox games (crucial for FPS). 3. IR (image retention) has not been an issue whatsoever, even after playing Xbox games with a static HUD for a few hours at a time. 4. I am disappointed with the sound quality, mainly because other reviewers said it was better than most other TV's in this price range. While this may be true, in the end I consider it to be barely useable. However, when spending well over 1K on a TV you should probably invest in some sort of sound system also. 5. Buzzing has been nonexistent thus far, will update if I notice it. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS: 1. Stand does not swivel. 2. Very slick styling; looks great in person. 3. Remote looks like it was made for a 1998 geriatric technology convention. (who cares about the remote, dude?) 4. There is no questioning the excellence of Amazon's customer service, but the "scheduled delivery" is worthless. Mine was scheduled from 9am-12pm. When it finally arrived at 5pm (lol) the driver said, "Nothing runs on time with freight." So be prepared to block out a whole day to receive this item (keep in mind this was my experience, not sure how common this is?). Amazon did give me $60 store credit for my troubles. 5. I have not had any problems with the ABL (automatic brightness limiting), but I do not watch hockey so if that is your thing then you might want to do more research. 6. I am not evaluating the wifi capabilities or apps because I connect to wifi through my Xbox and stream everything through it. PICTURE SETTINGS: -Background (for semi-noobs like myself): it seems many people use D-nice's picture settings (he is a calibrator that posts on the hi tech junkies forum). He recommends downloading some picture prep slides that he posted and running them for 100 hours to evenly age the phosphors on this TV. I didn't do this, mostly because I'm lazy. Other people use David Katzmaier's settings (he is a calibrator and reviewer for cnet). Ultimately I decided to place my settings exactly between these two "expert's" opinions because neither hit it dead on for me. Keep in mind these are dark room settings and that my TV hasn't been "properly aged." Frankly I don't care because these settings look perfect to me, but I may need to readjust in a few months if some "aging" occurs. -Picture: Picture Mode: Custom Contrast: 80 Brightness: 58 Color: 46 Tint: 0 Sharpness: 0 (yes, turn this all the way down from 50) Color Temp: Warm2 Photo Enhancement: Off C.A.T.S: Off Video NR: Off -Pro Settings: Colorspace: Normal W/B High R: +5 W/B High G: 0 W/B High B: +2 W/B Low R: +8 W/B Low G: 0 W/B Low B: +1 Black Extension: 0 Gamma Adjustment: 2.4 (I dropped this from 2.6 because my personal preference is slightly brighter) Panel Brightness: Mid Contour Emphasis: Off AGC: 0 -Aspect adjustments submenu Screen format: Full HD size: Size 2 H size: [grayed out] Zoom adjustments: [grayed out] -HDMI Settings Leave all settings in this menu at their default -Advanced picture submenu 3D Y/C filter: Off [grayed out] Color matrix: HD [grayed out] Block NR: Off [grayed out] Mosquito NR: Off Motion smoother: Off Black level: Light 3:2 pulldown: On 24p Direct in: 60Hz Hope this helps!!. this is my Panasonic VIERA TC-P50ST50 50-Inch 1080p 600Hz Full HD 3D Plasma TV reviews
