Almost identical to last years
|
I have owned a few different HDTV's in and I have to say the Panasonic plasma is one of my favorites. I own a 52" XBR4 LCD and this plasma blows that out of the water when watching fast moving sports and movies. I also have a Pioneer 5010 and under normal everyday viewing, there is very little if any difference in picture quality.
I just bought the TH-50PZ85u and calibrated it yesterday. First of all let me say that I also own last years TH-50PZ77u and bought this to put in our bedroom. I was really excited about the improved contrast ratio because on paper it was such a huge jump over last years model but after getting it set up and watching it side by side with my TH-50PZ77u, I have to say it looks almost exactly the same. I played several Blu ray movies (Cars, Casino Royale...etc), test patterns and solid color screenshots and they were no differences to my eyes. In some instances, the blacks were more detailed on my TH-50PZ77u. I also prefer the bezel on last year's model. the TH-50PZ77u also has a great anti-reflective screen that helps out immensely with sunlight and ambient lighting
All this said, I do think that this TV displays and excellent picture both in HD and SD but it's not an improvement over last years model at all, just an updated look. I really wish that there was some sort of standardization when it comes to TV specs because this TV does not live up to its advertised specs.
