Panasonic TH50PF10UK 50" Professional Plasma HDTV

Welcome to the Next Generation of Panasonic's 1080p HD Plasma Displays

Panasonic once again raises the bar by which other technologies will be compared. The TH-50PF10UK provides superior image quality which has been upgraded with the latest technological impovements. This impressive 50" Full HD display offers incredible panel longevity with a 100,000-hour service life, a full 40,000 hours more than previous models.

Performance and Longevity
With the every-increasing demand in today's marketplace for more durable and reliable products, customers are counting on manufacturers to create long-lasting, high-quality products to ensure that their expectations are being met and exceeded. The TH-50PF10UK can now deliver over 42 years of performance under normal operating conditions (6.5 hours per day of usage) or 11 years of continuous 24/7 operation. Plus, a fifth generation increase in resistance to ghosted imaging - and after an initial break-in period of about 300 hours - allows the TH-50PF10UK to display a static image for a continuous 2000 hours (80+ days of 24/7 operation) before a ghosted image might begin to appear - which is on a level akin to when LCDs begin to exhibit static image retention. And if you use the built-in screen saver functions, there's a good chance you would never see such an image appear.

Ultimate 1080p HD Plasma Displays: Unleashing the Full Capability of 1080p HD
Panasonic's new plasma panel incorporates a host of leading-edge technologies to reproduce clear, brilliant images with exceptional detail, true 1080p resolution and outstanding depth perception. The TH-50PF10UK also provides smooth, sharp motion images, true-to-life color and the equivalent of 4,096 gradation steps. With superior imaging performance, Panasonic's new 65 inch plasma display panel unleashes the full capability of 1080p HD.

Advanced Technologies Deliver Superb 1080p HD Image Quality

A Huge Screen — and Twice as Much Image Information
The TH-50PF10UK features about 2 million pixels (1920 horizontal x 1080 vertical) — about twice as many as Panasonic's conventional HD models. Images are uniformly clear, sharp and super-detailed across the entire screen surface.

Superior Moving Image Resolution
To deliver the full beauty of HD images, the display needs to render moving images in clear detail. Plasma display panels use a self-illuminating system to boost resolution in images with fast motion. Panasonic brings out all the beauty inherent in 1080p HD, reproducing crisp, sharp images that move smoothly.

Reproducing the Entire HDTV Color Range
HD sources are based on the HDTV standard rather than the conventional NTSC standard. In the TH-50PF10UK, the panel phosphor characteristics closely match the HDTV-standard color gamut. This lets the plasma reproduce the entire color range specified in the HDTV standard (ITU-R. BT709), so images are natural-looking and faithful to the original HD source.

Digital Color Reality for Accurate Reproduction of the Ambience in Movies
In Super Cinema mode, Digital Color Reality boosts precision in the digital control of color and brightness video data by a factor of four (white chromaticity fluctuation of less than 0.003). By continuously adjusting the white balance and performing gamma correction as scenes change, this technology accurately expresses the warmth of light, and reproduces delicate shading. With movie scenes especially, the new plasma displays create the kind of faithful ambience that were difficult for previous systems to deliver.

4,096 Gradation Steps — Tops in the Industry
Thanks to Panasonic's advanced 16-bit digital image processing, the TH-65PF10UK reproduces crisp, clear motion picture images with the equivalent of 4,096 gradation steps. This industry-leading gradation level not only creates richer, deeper blacks, it also enhances image depth, conveys fine detail, and recreates ambience with the kind of accuracy only a 1080p HD plasma display can offer.

Deep, Crisp Blacks and the Industry's Highest Contrast
Panasonic's New Real Black Creation technology achieves up to 5000:1 contrast — tops in the industry. This combines with the New Deep Black Filter and New AR Coating technologies, which help maintain crisp blacks even in bright image surroundings, to give images superb depth and textural quality.

Optimum Expandability
With triple function input slots and a variety of terminal boards, the TH-50PF10UK lets you customize the display to your exact needs. This great expandability combines with the superb image quality to make Panasonic displays a high-performance solution in almost any application.
