Image Quality and Versatility that Lead the Industry

Panasonic's business-use flat panel displays lead the industry in image quality and functions and are available in screen sizes from 32 to 65 inches.

Because flat panel displays are used in a variety of applications, they must meet a range of requirements. They must offer clear, faithful images. And they must provide advanced functions, screen sizes large enough for the installation location, and selectable cabinet colours (in this case, black or silver) to match their surroundings. Panasonic flat panel displays provide all that and more. Our quest to lead the industry in image quality and innovative functions has led to a new lineup of eleven models in five sizes and two cabinet colours. Throughout this new lineup you'll see Panasonic's commitment to providing high-performance flat panel displays that meet the widest range of professional applications.

Industry’s Highest Level of Gradation Steps — Advanced Real Gamma System

Panasonic plasma display series uses ultra-precise, maximum 14-bit signal processing to produce vividly rich details. The Advanced Real Gamma System then takes it another step further with full-time, full-pixel 1,536-step gradation and 2,048-step dark-area gradation. This level of gradation brings intricate details and more faithful colour reproduction to all scenes, dark and bright.

* The equivalent of 4,096 steps of gradation can be displayed with DVI or HDMI connection.

Dark areas are not shown clearly.

Dark scenes have finer detail.

Industry’s Highest Level of Brightness — Advanced Plasma Panel

Panasonic plasma display panels feature a bounded cell structure in which wall-like ribs are used to wrap each individual cell. By increasing the area in which the phosphor can be applied, this dramatically improves both light-emitting efficiency and intensity. Furthermore, by optimizing the gas composition ratio, lighting efficiency has been increased by about 15%. The result is the industry’s highest le vel of brightness. You see crisp and clear images even in bright rooms.

Conventional

Long Service Life of 60,000 Hours

A new drive circuit and inner panel improvements give Panasonic plasma panels a long service life of approximately 60,000 hours* brightness. A newly developed phosphor also raises the plasma displays’ resistance to static-image screen burning to the same level as CRT displays.

*5: The time until panel brightness is reduced to half its initial level, when displaying moving

images at standard mode. Excludes afterimages and malfunctions.

High-Precision MPD Noise Reduction

This technology dramatically reduces MPD (Motion Picture Disturbance) noise to deliver crisp, clean moving images. Using a Panasonic original algorithm, it detects motion patterns that tend to generate noise and makes the necessary adjustments to maximise image quality.

Conventional

Active I/P Conversion

The Active I/P (Interlace/Progressive) Conversion system detects slow movements more precisely by increasing the range for detecting moving-picture and stillpicture pixels. This reduces I/P conversion noise that often occurs when reproducing tiny movements, thereby producing crisper images while raising the vertical resolution in interlaced images.

3D Colour Management System

The 3D Colour Management System achieves precise control based on 3D management in the colour difference plane and brightness directions. This finer level of control produces more expressive images.

Note:The default setting for the 3D Colour

Management System is OFF.

Adaptive AGC

Adaptive AGC raises contrast while suppressing noise by detecting and boosting only the image edges.

Advanced Dual Picture Mode

Panasonic plasma displays feature a new Advanced Dual Picture Mode in addition to the conventional Dual Picture Mode. This new mode lets you overlay a video image onto a full-screen PC image. For example,

User-Friendly Remote Control

Redesigned for easier operation, the remote control unit now features a Power Off button and Direct input select buttons. It

also allows ID control in a multi-screen system. you can superimpose text information from a PC over a video clip, giving you a more effective way to present information. When displaying two separate images, you can select the audio output from either source (previous models reproduced audio from the main source only). Playing back the audio from the sub-source can be useful in teleconferencing, for example.

Note: Plasma models cannot display two images when both are from component video

or RGB (PC) signal sources. The Advanced Dual Picture Mode may not work properly with some video signals and is not available on the TH-32LHD7 series.

Advanced Dual Picture Mode

Dual Picture Mode

4x Digital Zoom

This function lets you enlarge a portion of an image by up to four times normal size and display it on the full screen. Use this function to give your presentations greater impact.

Note: Digital Zoom does not work in Dual Picture mode. Images of SXGA resolution or higher

from a PC or RGB source may not enlarge correctly. Some degradation occurs when images are enlarged.

look while also helping prevent accidental operation and tampering.

Enhanced Screen Saver Functions

A variety of screen saver functions help minimise the risk of uneven phosphor

aging. You can also use the timer to set the screen saver operating cycles,

operating time, and start and stop times. This lets you make settings that match

your application.

• White Bar Scroll: White bars move across the screen from left to right at regular intervals. Good for ordinary still-image displays.

• Screen Reversal: Displays images with the black and white reversed. Good for text displays.

• Side Panel Adjustment: Brightens the black bands on the sides of the screen when displaying images in the 4:3 format.

•Wobbling: Shifts the image's position by several pixels at fixed time intervals.

•Peak Limit Mode: Lowers the peak brightness level (image contrast) by 30%.

Energy-Saving Functions

A broad range of environment-friendly functions help minimise energy

The built-in image-enlarging function makes it easier to set up a multi-

screen display system with four (2 x 2), nine (3 x 3), or 16 (4 x 4) units. Thanks to the ID control function, you can use the standard remote control unit to control multiple panels individually. There is also a mode that displays a full-screen image, including the edges (the width of the frame) of the display panel — something not possible with previous systems. This is especially suitable for displaying text information, since no words are hidden by the frame.
