Panasonic Launches New 2008 Viera Range Of Plasma, LCD TVs In India
Panasonic has launched its 2008 Viera range of plasma and LCD televisions in India. Currently, plasma screens ranging from 42-inch to 103-inch will be offered this year. Panasonic has introduced three new plasma variants -- TH-50PV80 (50 inch HD ready), TH-42PV80 (42 inch HD ready), and TH-42PV8 (42 inch HD ready). In addition, Panasonic will also be introducing shortly this year, 2 full high definition models -- TH-50PY850 (50 inches) and TH-65PY850 [65 inches].
All the 2008 models contain the TUF (Tough Under Force) glass panel that covers the front glass of the plasma TV screen providing protection against impacts (upto 4 joules). These models also feature over 900 moving line picture resolution, dynamic contrast of 1,000,000:1; and an extended panel life of up to 100,000 hours.
On the other hand, the four new Viera LCD variants are TX-32LX800 (800 series, 32 inch), TX-37LX80 (80 series, 37 inch), TX-32LX80 (80 series, 32 inch); and TX-32LE8 (8 series, 32 inch). The Viera LCD panel incorporate IPS Alpha technology with 178� wide viewing angle, contrast ratio of 10,000:1, energy-saving backlight, and Viera link for simple networking. In addition 2 more new models are expected to be launched shortly in the 37 inch [full HD] and the 26 inch category.
The 2008 VIERA models also include Panasonic's V-real 3 and V-real PRO 3 Technology. V-real is the collective name for Panasonic's black-box imaging technologies. VIERA V-real 3 /V-real PRO 3 Processor is the key device that processes the video signal it receives and outputs the same as an extremely high-quality refined signal that helps create the beautiful, high-definition images. The VIERA V-real 3 /V-real PRO 3 Driver controls the drive power to optimise panel performance in the new VIERA range. The resulting images show every motion clearly and express each step of gradation in delicate detail, according to the company.
With lead-free plasma display panels, the VIERA range also features an advanced Anti-Reflection Filter and Intelligent Scene controller. The majority of the VIERA line-up is equipped with a slot for large-capacity SDHC Cards.
