600Hz Sub-field Drive

Panasonic uses its own unique image-analysis technology. This technology converts the motion in each scene into data, and each frame is virtually displayed in a shorter length of time than in previous 600Hz systems, to create crisp images.

* When using Cinema mode.

Full-HD Resolution Speed of 1200 pps

Full-HD Resolution Speed, the new standard for moving picture measurement announced by the Advanced PDP Development Center Corporation (APDC), indicates the maximum moving picture speed that can be enjoyed with full-HD resolution. VIERA achieved 1,200 pps (pixels per second) under this new standard. Even images that scroll left or right at the extremely high speed of 1,200 pps are able to correctly display the maximum resolution of 1,080 lines.

Infinite Black Pro

In new VIERA models, contrast in brightly lit locations has been significantly improved. Enhancements to the panel and cells help reproduce images with smooth, natural gradation and deep, rich blacks – even when viewed in bright surroundings. In movies, the true, deep blacks faithfully convey the intent of the filmmakers, adding power and realism to the viewing experience.

ISFccc- Imaging Science Foundation Certified Calibration Configuration

An ISF-certified installer can calibrate your VIERA, so that image reproduction is customised to actual viewing conditions in your home and your personal preferences. The calibration process provides the settings that bring out the full expressive potential within the image signals. Settings for contrast, tint, sharpness and colour are optimised to meet your home's lighting conditions for both daytime and nighttime viewing. The VT Series allows expert ISF Calibration, which allows full-scale professional calibration.

24p Smooth Film

Enjoy naturally flowing 24p films and familiar TV-like quality. In plasma displays, increasing the number of frames creates smoother images. When reproducing images from a 24p film source, VIERA's 24p Smooth Film function generates smooth, natural-looking images.

Wide Colour Viewing Angle

No matter where you sit in the room, you see breathtaking images with spectacular colours. Plasma TVs are self-illuminating, so images look beautiful from any angle. Black areas do not fade, and colours look virtually the same from every point in the room.

* Measured using an index for evaluating colour viewing angle developed by the Advanced PDP Development Centre Corporation (APDC). This ensures that you will enjoy exceptional viewing quality even in the largest living rooms.

Resolution Enhancer

The Resolution Enhancer function restores the fine definition and detail that are inherently part of the image but sometimes lost in reproduction. Each area within the image frame is digitally processed for optimum quality. This process up-converts standard-definition images – such as those from TV broadcasts and DVDs – to a level approaching full-HD.

Sound for VT Series

Newly developed speakers bring additional power to 3D images. An improved dual speaker layout produces clearer, higher-quality sounds, while an enhanced configuration allows bass speakers to reproduce dynamic, robust bass sounds.

VIERA Image Viewer

Equipped with an SD card slot, VIERA makes it easy to view full-HD photos and motion images that you shot yourself. Simply insert the SD memory card into the slot, and you're ready to view your photos and full-HD videos on the big screen. You can make your slide shows even more impressive by adding background music and attractive frames. With VIERA's big screen and superb image quality, family and friends will love sharing your memories. More formats are now supported for both photos and movies, to bring you even more enjoyment.

* This TV supports Motion JPEG data recorded by a Panasonic LUMIX camera. It may not be possible to play some files depending on the recording conditions.

DLNA / Wi-Fi Ready

Connect a DLNA-compatible VIERA and DLNA-compatible AV equipment to your home network, and you can watch movies, listen to music, and view photos from any room in the house. VIERA's Wi-Fi capability gives you even more layout flexibility.

USB Connection

Use the USB terminal to watch PC-stored photos and videos, or listen to music, on your large-screen VIERA TV. Similar to VIERA Image Viewer, you can enjoy a variety of easy-to-use functions, such as slideshows and thumbnail displays. You can also connect a USB Keyboard and Wireless LAN Adaptor for more comfortable VIERA Connect enjoyment.

VIERA Tools

The VIERA Tools user interface makes it easy to access and understand key functions. Simply press a function button, and an explanation appears on the screen. Keep the button pressed to activate the function immediately.

* The VIERA Tools screen design is subject to change without notice.
** The screen display varies depending on the model.

Game Mode

Games are much more fun when there's no lag in operation. VIERA automatically chooses settings that provide the optimal image, so you get super-fast response and no delays. Even dark scenes with delicately rendered details are beautiful and easy to see.

ARC (Audio Return Channel)

Using a single HDMI cable, VIERA can output the audio portion of a TV broadcast to your home theatre system, so you can enjoy full-fledged surround sound. You no longer need two cables to connect VIERA to a home theatre system.

* An ARC compatible model is required.

Remote Control with iPhone / iPod touch / iPad and Android Smartphones

Using the VIERA remote app over a Wi-Fi (wireless LAN) network lets you operate a VIERA TV more intuitively than with an ordinary remote control. Using slide and flick operations, you can flip through the channels, switch external inputs, and control the volume while viewing the VIERA screen.

* In order to use the VIERA remote app, it must be downloaded from the App Store (iTunes Store) or Android Market.
* Operation Requirement: iPhone / iPod touch / iPad with iOS4.2 or later.
* Compatible with Android Version 2.2 or later.
* This feature may not be available in some regions.

Mercury and Lead Free Plasma Display Panel

Panasonic is committed to making our products more friendly to the environment. In line with this commitment, all VIERA plasma display panels are free of both lead and mercury. This reduces impact on the environment years down the road when the TV is recycled or retired from use.

Long Panel Life, Up to 100,000 Hours

One important way consumers can protect the environment is by choosing high-quality products and taking care of them so they last for a long time. A high-quality VIERA TV can help. Thanks to a newly designed phosphor process and rear panel process, our plasma panels last for up to 100,000 hours before the brightness decreases by half. That's more than 30 years of viewing 8 hours a day.

* This measurement is based on the time taken for the brightness of the panel to reduce to half of its maximum level. The time taken to reach this level may vary depending on the image content and the environment where the TV is used. Image retention and malfunctions are not taken into account.

Standby Power Save

When the VIERA power is turned off, the power consumption of connected devices* is minimised.

* 2009 or above VIERA, and 2009 or above video products compatible with Power Save or Quick Start.
** The power consumption value differs depending on the discs used in connected devices and the usage conditions.

Gentle on the Eyes

Eye fatigue is suppressed, so both children and adults can watch TV in comfort, even with extended viewing. In a plasma TV, each pixel illuminates and its brightness is adjusted for every scene. For this reason the images are not overly bright.
