Taking your home viewing experience beyond ordinary HD, the Panasonic TC-P42C2 presents 600Hz subfield drive technology. While the 1024 x 768 resolution plasma panel serves up crisp, high definition images, 600Hz technology accelerates frame-rate conversion, achieving an exceptionally fluid and natural reproduction of motion. Further, a 2,000,000:1 native contrast ratio ensures deep black levels for sharp detail and high color purity. And, allowing you to transform this plasma HDTV into a 42" digital photo gallery, the TC-P52C2 sports a built-in SD card slot. Finally, two HDMI inputs offer optimal single-cable connectivity to HD video sources.
Movement, color, high definition
Believe us: there's more to modern home theater viewing than just panel resolution. While high definition resolutions certainly play a part in creating a vivid, lifelike viewing experience, color and motion reproduction are of equal importance. After all, without these, you'd just have a high definition black-and-white photograph to look at. Accordingly, not only does the Panasonic TC-P42C2 plasma flat panel offer high definition 720p display resolution, but it also sports a dynamic contrast ratio of 2,000,000:1 for deep, inky black levels that ensure exceptional detail and color purity. And this VIERA panel is just getting started . . . For incredibly smooth, and lifelike motion, even when watching fast-action sports and movies, look to 600Hz subfield motion technology. This technology increases frame-rate conversion from 24 fps, 30fps, or 60fps to an astounding 600fps, delivering seamless transitions between frames. You experience all of the fluidity of natural motion without any of the shakiness inherent in other playback technologies. Discover Panasonic HD viewing.
Show off your latest shots
Ever since you invested in your new digital camera, you haven't been able to stop shooting. Whether snapping quick shots at a party with friends, or documenting your adventure into the great outdoors, it's been a rare moment when your finger wasn't on the shutter button. While you love shooting, your only frustration is having to share all your latest pictures with friends and family on your tiny computer screen. If only there were a better venue . . . Enter the TC-P42C2 from Panasonic. Featuring VIERA Image Viewer technology, this HDTV allows you to convert the plasma display into a 42" photo gallery. And all you have to do is remove the SD card from your digital camera and insert it in the TC-P42C2's built-in SD card slot. That's it. From there, you can quickly begin browsing photos with your choice of five display effects and five audio tracks.
Connection-city
Sure, what's on the front of an HDTV (i.e. the screen) is central to the level of your home theater experience, but equally important is what you find on the back. We're talking connections. Today's world of home theater demands that any A/V component be equipped to mesh perfectly with the rest of your home theater. Components that don't offer sufficient connectivity options deliver sub-par performance. Bringing you optimal system-connectivity, the TC-P42C2 offers a diverse array of audio and video inputs. Topping the list, of course, are two HDMI inputs. Ideal for use with HD satellite and Blu-ray Disc, HDMI allows transmission of HD video and 7.1-channel lossless audio along a single cable. Further, offering connectivity to DVD players, gaming consoles, and other devices, this plasma HDTV sports two component-video and two composite-video inputs.
ENERGY STAR efficiency
Seeking to meet your demand to reduce energy use and preserve the environment, Panasonic has made sure that the TC-P42C2 meets the U.S. government's standard for ENERGY STAR qualification. What does the ENERGY STAR qualification mean? ENERGY STAR is a government-backed program helping businesses and individuals protect the environment through superior energy efficiency. For the family or homeowner, energy efficient choices can reduce energy consumption and expenses by up to one third while resulting in similar savings of greenhouse gas emissions, without sacrificing features, style or comfort. ENERGY STAR helps you make the energy efficient choice. When a product boasts the ENERGY STAR qualification, this means the product meets stringent government standards set by the EPA and US Department of Energy for conserving both energy and the environment. So whether you are concerned for the environment, your pocket book or both, this appliance helps ensure both are given an easier load to bear.
The advanced connectivity of HDMI
Bringing you the absolute best in connectivity, Panasonic's TC-P42C2 features three HDMI connections. HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the only interface in consumer electronics that can carry both uncompressed high-definition (HD) video and uncompressed multi-channel audio in all HD formats including 720p, 1080i and even 1080p. Your incoming media content comes in a variety of sizes, resolutions and formats, and with that in mind, HDMI systems automatically configure to display that content in the most effective format. Since HDMI carries all channels on video and audio, there is only one cable to plug into any HDMI-enabled source and display device. No more complicated cable set-up when installing your home theater system, and no more ugly cable mess behind your components. HDMI supports standard, enhanced, or high-definition video, plus multi-channel digital audio on this single cable. Also, HDMI is fully backward-compatible with DVI. (Please note that a physical adapter, sold separately, is needed to make the conversion from HDMI to DVI.)
Your HD lifeline
High Definition Multimedia Interface, or HDMI, is the only home A/V connection that allows for both Full HD 1080p video and 7.1-channel studio-quality audio to be passed along a single cable. In other words, in order to take full advantage of your home theater's high definition potential, you need to HDMI cabling to link HD-capable components. It's only natural that you might have questions regarding how best to outfit your personal HD system. Vann's sales representatives are here to explain all of your options.
