Looking for suggestions on a 50" full HD TV for living room

[alljunkie1]

On what basis do you state this???

Unless you personally have demoed both tv's do not comment.

I've personally seen both tv, ST30 just look dull and have washed out colors, 30 series stands no chance in front of 2012 tv models of all companies. even ST50 has better picture than VT30 (last years flagship model). So yea it would be dumb call to go for 2011 panasonic models now when 2012 models are already out.. I also Demoed ST50 and GT50 they both are fab.. ST50 would cost a bit more than 100k I got quote of 109k but I'm sure I can get more discount from dealer at time of Purchase.

Finally got my ST30 home.. So far, very happy
though I can't figure out how to determine the usage of the TV.. don't see any option in the settings menu.. or the F key on the right side of the panel

couldnt agree more. I guess its wise to wait for a while to atleast demo the 2012 models. some FM have bought 50GT50 for 115 k. BTW where did u demo the Panny 2012 models. did you check about VT50 series.
