Panasonic Plasmas are great paperweights
by Richard

Panasonic Plasma have a great picture for two years.
However, after a couple of years, they completely fail. There are horror stories all over the Internet about multiple repairs, high repair cost, no repairs, no service, and not being able to get parts. Panasonic service is usually a 10-20% coupons for a new Panasonic TV.
So if you get a Panasonic Plasma, enjoy the picture for two years and find a large desk for this paper weight.

I have been struggling and searching for thorough analysis of these particular sets; you have done an amazing job. I have already recommended many friends to look to you for such detail view.
Thank you

Panasonic V-10 Motion Handling
by Bob
(Santa Cruz)
I recently purchased a Panasonic 58-inch V-10 TV. The picture is terrific, however, motion jerkiness seems excessive. It is connected via HDMI to a Denon 2310 AV receiver. I sit 16 ft. away from the set. I thought smooth video was a given with the 600 Hz engine. Any thoughts?

Panasonic V10 Plasma TV - Motion Handling Issue
I presume you are referring to jerky movement with film-based 24p content. Have you tried to use the set 96Hz processing setting?
Note: However, for this to be effective, you need to ensure that your video source outputs film-based content direct in 24p.
