Looks great doesn't it? We actually bought ours as a friend had 1 & we were in awe! Only the (so-called) friend didn't mention until after we'd bought this plasma; that it wasn't quite what its cracked up to be! (They only in fact mentioned this when we started having problems!) TV looks stunning (when its turned off!), our main prob with the plasma is the beyond poor picture quality; we thought it was because we'd bought a plasma & we were only used to a 32" flat screen tv; the plasma obviously stretches the screen etc. But it seems that not all plasma's leave the picture looking quite so poor. Below I've copied & pasted a review I've just found which sums up the problem to a T! So far it’s nearly impossible to ratify the 50PC1D’s £1,280 price tag with the design prowess, connectivity and features it has to offer. But sadly the one place where the lowly price perhaps does find an expression is in the TV’s picture quality. The first things to make a negative impression on us are the TV’s colours. Sure, there’s a rare intensity and vibrancy by plasma standards to the way the set presents such colour-rich fare as Viva Pinata on the Xbox 360 or Superman Returns on HD DVD. But this richness is sadly seemingly only achieved at the expense of colour tones that look far more unnatural – gaudy, even - than we’re remotely comfortable with. Skin tones are particularly hard hit by the 50PC1D’s colour problems, frequently looking almost disturbingly over-ripe and flushed. To be fair, if you push the set’s colour setting down right to around a third of its maximum setting, some of the problems we’re describing become considerably reduced. But they never completely go away – and with colours desiderated to this extent, the picture also starts to lose its vibrancy and sense of solidity. Fighting hard to distract your attention away from the colour failings, though, is another howler in the shape of some really pretty excessive video noise. And we’re not just talking about one type of noise either; in fact, the set suffers with MPEG blocking from digital sources (including its own digital tuner); grain (especially with analogue sources); and motion noise in the form of fizzing dots over objects moving horizontally across the screen. Even if you’re lucky enough to only find one of these noise types occurring at any one time the picture still looks distractingly ‘alive’, so you can imagine how unpleasant things get when all three culprits appear simultaneously. Tragically, if you put your rose-tinted glasses on and try to see beyond the depressing duo of problems we’ve just reported, the 50PC1D actually has a lot to offer. It’s one of the best black level performers in the flat TV world for instance, effortlessly portraying even the darkest corners of Sam Fisher’s Splinter Cell: Double Agent adventures without a trace of the tell-tale greyness that afflicts so many flat TV rivals – budget priced or otherwise. So there you have it; be warned!
