Panasonic VIERA Plasma HDTV G10 TC-P42G10 42-Inch Customer Reviews3 out of 5 stars 2010-02-05By A. Rosenberger (Cali) After doing much research and finally pulling the trigger and buying Panasonic's V10 plasma model, I was shocked to recently find many widespread reputable reports that black levels on Panasonic 2008 and 2009 model plasmas may double or in some cases triple after approximately 1000 hours of use. At this point I can only wish I had found this information before I made my purchase, so I'm passing it on to anyone else who may be considering any of these models. My V10 picture is fantastic at the moment, but I can only wait in fear that I may have spent K dollars on something that will lose one of it's best qualities after only months of normal use. The issue is described and commented in detail here: [...] [...] Good Luck!!!! 5 out of 5 stars 2010-02-03 By A. Arya (san mateo, CA United States) I had a LCD before, but we upgraded to this to fill up the living room. We choose plasma because we heard the pic is more accurate and it's faster for fast moving objects. This model was highly rated, and we got it for 0 total. Did the break in, and watched it in the dim mode for the 100+ hrs. After that we upped the calibrated the tv using the DVE calibration disk. The picture is great, and incredible in HD. Outdoor scenes really pop! For some reason the video is what I'd describe as a sheet of film over the video. Then we turned off the CATs feature and it brightened up (just turn off all those video enhancements). Now the only other picture comments I have is: 1. I notice when watching certain commercials, you can see shades of the same color...I don't know if it's an effect used in these commercials, because it doesn't happen when watching regular tv. 2. bright parts (like when watching outdoor scenes) almost look shiny...like there are ice crystals shining on the screen...but the contrast is set at 60, and if it's lessened it's still there. i'll play with the calibration disk again. The other grip i have is the tv stand. our entertainment system has a front speaker that has to be offset on the tv stand because the IR for the tv is right behind it. Basically, the tv is too low to have anything in front of it. if the stand put the tv 5" higher, the speaker would be aesthetically placed well. if you wall mount, or dont have a front speaker, then don't worry about it. 5 out of 5 stars 2010-01-13 By Mr. K (Atlanta, GA) Picture quality is awesome! Out-of-the box is very good and even better with DIY calibration. If PQ is your highest priority in a TV, look no further at this price point. SD cable programming looks fine but 1080i HD cable is fantastic and 1080p BluRay is unbelievable. I've always had a few nitpick issues with my previous TV's. Each subsequent set was an improvement (with commensurate cost increase) over the previous set but still had flaws. I have no complaints whatsoever with this one (and it was cheaper than my last set!). Black levels are outstanding, by far the best I've ever had in a TV, and colors are vibrant without being oversaturated. CRT is supposedly the gold standard but I've owned a few decent tubes and they are not even close. Forget about LCD's (better BL than before, but can't touch plasma). User controls are straightforward. The THX setting is good for some movies if you're watching in the dark, but I usually tweak it a bit from there. Sound quality is good (for a TV) and it is plenty loud for everyday viewing. But a good HT setup is indispensable. Extra features (YouTube and Picassa viewers, stock ticker, weather channel, Amazon Video) are a bonus but were a non-factor in my choice. I ordered from Amazon. It arrived in a few days and the TV was well packaged and had no damage whatsoever. If you are looking for a 42" TV at this price point, you would be hard pressed to find a better one. 5 out of 5 stars 2010-01-11 By B. Espanol (NY, NY) I love this TV. I bought it for myself in november and its been FLAWLESS. The picture is PERFECT. Watch your movies and blu rays in THX mode and you will be happy with them. The Amazon on demand works perfectly. I stream movies from there HD and am wowed. They have an amazing selection and the prices are great. And the sound from the tv is just perfect. The other reviews tell you other wise but i disagree. I WAS going to buy a surround sound system or a sound bar for my tv but the sound on the TV is fine as is. Amazingly clear. I have no problems with this TV what so ever. I plan on buying this model for friends. 5 out of 5 stars 2010-01-09 By H. L. Pankopf (Pennsylvania USA) For the past few years I have been looking at and comparing new flat screen HD TVs. I don't make large purchases on a whim or without careful thought and research. I finally decided this year was the one for me to make the purchase. I have family who purchased their TV from Amazon last year and couldn't have been happier with the purchase and service they received. I went to big electronic stores to see the pictures in person and talked with salespeople about details and made my selection. Great TV and great service from Amazon!
