1080p HD Plasma Panel — Twice as Much Image Information (PF series only)
Our 1080p HD plasma models
feature about 2 million pixels
(1920 horizontal x 1080 vertical)
— about twice as many as our
conventional HD models. Images
are uniformly clear, sharp and
super-detailed across the entire
screen surface.
Reproducing the Entire HDTV Color Range
HD sources are based on the HDTV standard rather than the conventional NTSC
standard. In our new 1080p HD models, the panel phosphor characteristics closely
match the HDTV-standard color gamut. This lets our plasmas reproduce the entire color
range specified in the HDTV standard (ITU-R. BT709), so images are faithful to the
original HD source.
Digital Color Reality for Accurate Color Reproduction
In Super Cinema mode*, Digital Color Reality boosts
precision in the digital control of color and brightness video
data. By continuously adjusting the white balance and
performing gamma correction as scenes change, this
technology accurately creates the kind of faithful ambience
that was difficult for previous systems to deliver.
* For PF series.
Superior Moving Image Resolution
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.
Less Digital-Video Noise
Noise reduction circuitry suppresses the block noise and mosquito noise that are specific to HDTV broadcasts and other digital
video signals (MPEG video). This allows images to be faithfully reproduced in all their original beauty.
• Block Noise Reduction
The noise reduction circuit detects and eliminates block noise
that is generated when compressing motion images with an
inadequate bit rate.

• Mosquito Noise Reduction
The noise reduction circuit reduces mosquito noise that is
generated when compressing motion images, particularly at
the edges of characters and in parts where rapid color
changes occur.
Deep, Crisp Blacks with 15,000:1 Contrast*
Panasonic's original New Real Black Creation technology helps
achieve high contrast of 15,000:1 in dark image areas to reproduce
exceptionally deep, rich blacks.
* PH11 series only. TH-103PF10UK has 5000:1 contrast ratio. All other
Panasonic Pro Plasmas have 10,000:1 contrast ratio.

Thanks to Panasonic's advanced maximum 18-bit
digital image processing, the world's highest

in
the industry, our HD plasma models reproduce
crisp, clear motion picture images with the
equivalent of 4,096 gradation steps. This industry-
leading gradation level enhances image depth,
and conveys fine detail.

Except for TH-58PH10UKA which has 3,072 gradation steps.

Superior Picture Quality
Maintaining the Beauty of Detailed Video Images on a Large Screen
The plasma display, which uses self-illumination for each of its pixels,
reproduces fast-action images with sharp detail and clarity. There is no
fading even when the screen is viewed from an angle, so images are
vividly colorful from anywhere. As a result, you enjoy large-screen
viewing with extremely fine detail and no loss of the inherently beautiful,
high-definition images.
Each pixel is
self-illuminated.
Even Higher Bright-Area Contrast — New Deep Black Filter
The New Deep Black Filter suppresses light transmittance and slashes the amount of
external light reflected. This technology helps improve the contrast when viewed in
bright surroundings. Reflection is minimal, so images are clean and distraction-free.
