The TH-65PF12UK display shares the same Panasonic plasma essentials as the 11-series 1080p model - superior image quality, flexible plug-in architecture, and world-class support - while adding some additional enhancements.

As much as we love plasmas' image quality here at CNET, there's no denying that they're power hogs . However, at CES 2009 we've seen several plasma manufacturers showing off new energy-efficient panels. Like Panasonic's NeoPDP plasmas, the Samsung PNB550 series of plasmas claim to consume nearly 50 percent less energy compared to past models. Here are the full details.Minimize

This 60" screen offers high definition resolution for your favourite films and TV programmes, and uses 100 Hz scanning to reduce lag by calculating frames at 100 images per second, instead of 50 or 60. The 60PG3000 also comes with an XD Engine image enhancer and a digital comb filter, making graphics seem lifelike, as well as three HDMI sockets and two scart jacks for adding a multimedia hard drive, a DVD recorder or a games console.Minimize

The Panasonic TC-P42C1 42" Widescreen VIERA Plasma HDTV is ideal for sports, with crisp, focused images during fast-moving scenes. The 600Hz Sub-field Drive produces crisp, focused images for sports, dramatic action and all other fast-moving scenes. VIERA Image Viewer provides a better way to share your digital photos.
