Panasonic Viera TC-P42G10 42-inch 1080p Plasma HDTV
Top Rated 42-inch Plasma HDTV Awesome Price!
The Panasonic
TC-P42G10
1080p Plasma HDTV is the top choice. Don't overlook this value-priced set. Excellent picture quality on all program types: HD, SD and DVDs. The TC-P42G10's colors are very accurate, and contrast is excellent, giving images depth and dimension. Black levels very good, second to only the Pioneer KUROs (at a much lower price!). Very good reproduction of scenes with subtly shaded light-to-dark areas. Excellent high-definition film-mode operation effectively eliminates jagged edges on movie content. A special anti-glare coating minimizes the reflections that often plague plasma screens.
The excellent TC-P42G10 is a Best Buy as well, offered at a very competitive price. This top rated set is a fantastic value. Over 93%  five star ratings at Amazon.com. The 46-inch and 50-inch G10s are equally impressive and are similarly value-priced.

50-inch 1080p Plasma--World's Best HDTV
50-inch 1080p Plasma HDTV.
Ranked as Best-of-the-Best by C|Net, the 2008 Panasonic TH-50PZ800U comes mighty close to the vaunted blacks of the above KURO models. This set's THX mode adds significantly improved color and video processing performance. The THX certification is the big step-up feature between Panasonic's TH-PZ85U series and the TH-PZ800U models such as the TH-50PZ800U. The certification involves testing in a number of categories such as contrast ratio and color accuracy, according to THX, and the TH-50PZ800U has a special THX picture preset that, when engaged, causes the TV's picture to comply with the certification. Color accuracy is excellent. The image is perfectly uniform across the screen, and viewing angles are superb, with none of the drop-off in contrast or color accuracy typical of LCD. Overall, a fantastic set. The only set that comes close to matching the picture quality of the Pioneer KURO line. Over 90%
