Panasonic Plasma TV

Model: TH50PX25U/P

Built-in ATSC/QAM/NTSC tuners make the TH50PX25UP a complete TV- ready for viewing directly from your cable or antenna or, of course you could add a set-top cable box or Direct TV. But here's the cool part: when your local cable TV service offers Enhanced Definition programming-and many already do-you'll be able to order a card, slip it into this TV's CableCard slot and receive one of the best pictures you've ever seen on a TV. No more set-top box or wires to hide. Your new Panasonic Plasma TV can take advantage of the wonderful High Definition digital video formats available today, such as digital TV broadcast and Progressive Scan DVD. High Definition provides you with a smoother, more film-like image that appears without any visible scan lines. It's just as realistic as watching a movie in a movie theater.

It also has an unbelievably high contrast ratio that improves the picture quality. A higher contrast ratio provides richer black tones and that translates into lush and more accurate colors. Even the darkly shaded areas in a picture will have exquisite detail. This enhanced detail lends the picture a more realistic 3 dimensional feel as well.
