About Liquid Crystal Displays (LCD) Liquid crystal displays, or LCDs as they are more commonly known, have become more common in home entertainment because of the benefits they offer over other display technologies. LCD TVs use a liquid crystal material that is inserted between two panels of glass. A high-powered lamp is used to project high-resolution images to the viewer. LCD TVs are also commonly lighter and thinner than older model televisions. Furthermore, while some televisions are succeptible to a burn-in image, no such problem exists with an LCD.

This one's a gem Mar 02, 2009
I'm really impressed - I looked at so many TVs but kept coming back to this one --boy, am I glad I did. It's a keeper - gorgeous picture, strong tuner, excellent sound, easy to use remote control, lots of ports, works nicely with my panasonic DVD-recorder through the viera link. I am delighted with it. I was concerned that the 32 inch model might be a little too big for the space I had, so I got the 26 and I think I made the right choice. For close-up viewing about 4 - 6 ft away, it's the perfect size. You don't see the artifacts or dot pattern at all. People made some comments about it not having a swivel base, but it's so light, it's very easy to turn if you need to, and the wide viewing angle is excellent, so for the most part, there's really no need to do that. Set up was intuitive and it took less than 10 minutes to be up and running. The QAM tuner is picking up a lot of extra channels I didn't expect. I'm not using a set top box, just a direct cable to tv (also tried Over the Air via antenna - very nice!) The most impressive thing to me is the black level - it has a really a wonderful contrast without screen glare (* the plastic bezel around the screen can show a reflection, if you have a lamp on, but the screen does not). EXcellent picture -- the blacks are so deep, but there is still detail in the shadows. My main quibble with the viewing experience is the inconsistent quality of the cable feed on various channels, but that is NOT a problem with the tv itself.In fact, I've been very impressed that the standard quality holds up as well as it does on this TV - the high def is amazing, but not all programs are broadcast that way. My advice - don't worry about 720 vs 1080p - you're really not missing anything at this scale, unless you're planning to use it as a computer monitor, which I dont recommend. If I were searching for negatives (which I'm not) I'd say the uncorrected yellow tends to have an ever-so-slight greenish tinge, and the color controls to alleviate that shift are limited. Reds tend to be a little saturated out of the box, but that intensity can be tamed easily. And finally, the SD card processing for a slideshow seems a little slow ( but my card had 10 MB images in it vs smaller jpgs, so that may be the reason for the sluggish display). I'm not buying a tv for slideshows, I'm buying it for tv ... and for that purpose, it is a fabulous choice. I'm sorry that Panasonic discontinued this model - it's getting hard to find... I might want another one...

LOVE THIS HDTV!! Feb 18, 2009
We purchased this particular model because it was rated the top 26" hdtv by Consumer Reports....and they were so right on! This television has a fantastic picture quality, especially when viewed from a side angle. Just a great television for the bedroom. We couldn't be happier.
highly recommended Feb 09, 2009
We recently purchase this Panasonic 26" LCD HDTV and couldn't be more pleased. The picture and sound quality are unbelievable. Setup was very simple and the manual easy to follow. The remote is also very user friendly. I purchased this set based on the Consumer Report recommendation and highly recommend it. If you are interested in a 26" HDTV I don't believe you can do better than this one. It's obvious from the minute you take it out of the box it is a high quality set. One suggestion before buying is to first monitor the internet pricing as it fluctuates a great deal on this model. If you are patient you should be able to get it at a good price. We purchased ours from [...] and it was a very smooth transaction. They did miss their initial shipping date by a few days but it was not a problem.

Panosonic LCD HDTV Feb 01, 2009
This product is just what we thought it would be. We bought it for our bedroom and it is just wonderful, sound, color and options to operate are great esp for the not so tech inclined. We can switch to TV, DVD or SD card in a snap. Would recommend highly. You will not be disapointed.

Panasonic LCD HTV Jan 29, 2009
I had a friend check on consumer reports for the best 26" HDTV.
They gave Panasonic the best rating and that is why I purchased this product.
The most amazing part is that a side view is as great or better than a direct view.
Very happy with it and have recommended it to several other people.
