The Panasonic TH-50PH9UK is a 50" plasma professional plasma display designed for the most demanding home theater and professional applications. It contains technology that improves color rendition, brightness and contrast while achieving new standards in power efficiency and functional lifetime. It can be used as the ultimate home theater display or as a panel for corporate presentations and commercial signage.
Real Gamma Technology
This plasma display uses ultra-precise, 16-bit signal processing to produce vividly rich details. The Advanced Real Gamma System improves the image further with full-pixel 3072 step gradation. This level of gradation brings out intricate details along with faithful color reproduction to all scenes regardless of brightness.
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, 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 (where previous models reproduced audio from the main source only). Playing back the audio from the sub-source can be useful in teleconferencing.
60,000 Hours Life
An advanced drive circuit and inner panel improvements give Panasonic plasma panels a long service life of approximately 60,000 hours even with their increased brightness. A recently developed phosphor also raises the plasma displays resistance to static-image screen burning to the same level as CRT displays.
Optional Connections
The TH-50PH9UK comes with standard analog video and computer connections along with audio capabilities. The user can customize this monitor for their specific needs with three option slots for specialty cards. There are digital cards that provide HDMI, SDI or HD-SDI. Another card adds additional computer connections. Still another will add wireless PC interface.
Deep Black and High Contrast
The front protective glass of the TH-50PH9UK display panel incorporates a deep black filter that suppresses light transmittance, dramatically reducing the amount of external light reflected. By reducing this when displaying blacks, the Panasonic Black Drive system provides deeper, richer shadows with a stunning 10,000:1 contrast ratio. The result is dramatically enhanced images with unsurpassed clarity and realism.
