Panasonic TX-32LXD85

Advantages: Cheap for a Panasonic, Brilliant colours, Great sound quality
Disadvantages: Not 1080p, Deep colour not all that good

...On paper, Panasonic's Viera TX-32LXD85 has a tough job on its £650 hands. After all, it follows hot on the heels of the brand's all-singing, all-dancing, really rather excellent 32LZD85. Surely the less well-specified 32LXD85 can't make much of a mark in the wake of such an illustrious sibling? There is, of course, a very good reason why the 32LXD85 isn't as well specified as the 32LZD85: price. For around £650, the 32LXD85 is £100-200 cheaper than its fancy-pants sibling. That's enough in itself to tempt many people towards it, provided the set's performance standards aren't too badly affected by its price-induced down-speccing.For the most part, the 32LXD85's images are a chip off the old Panasonic block. Colours, for instance, are nothing short of excellent. The ultra-vivid hues of the Bahamas sequence in Casino Royale blaze off...

Panasonic TX-32LXD80

Advantages: wide viewing angle,picture quality
Disadvantages: weak audio

...I was looking around for an LCD which unlike others would look cute in my lounge room and which would not take too much space.Thats when i happened to stumble upon the Panasonic TX-32LXD80 .If you are in for a budget TV which doesn't take up most of your lounge wall, this 32-inch LCD from panasonic is an ideal buy for you. Its resolution stretches only as far as 720p, but its alpha panel provides a wide viewing angle. Moving on to the positives: even though the Panasonic TX-32LXD80 has a lower resolution. the out put from sky HD looks wonderfully crisp and clean.Panasonic's V-Real 3 picture processing helps the TV to produce smooth motion and really vivid-looking colors. The TV also supports movie playback from Blu-ray. It also does a good job of dealing with standard definition video.Another advantage,i would say, is that the TV...

* The PANASONIC Viera Duckworth likes. . .

Advantages: Brill picture, brill sound. Flat as a pancake.
Disadvantages: Price!!!

...RG12 8FP United Kingdom They also have a national Logistics Centre in Northampton, Viera link - never heard of it? Neither had I, it is simply a piece of software, which will enable you to use just one single remote control, to operate anything connected to your TV, all equipment has of course to be made by Panasonic! Connectivity is everything, This includes Scart, Component, PC and HDMI terminals to allow connection to all technology we have now, as well as for the foreseeable future. The list of things I have not even started to understand, includes advanced 3D colour management, digital optimiser, motion pattern noise reduction and sub-pixel controller, everything but a teasmade then! Sound. OK the sound is very very much up to you, there are so many different settings you would need to read up before even attempting...

Review of Panasonic TH-50 PZ 70

Panasonic Plasma TV - 42 inch Viera One Glass

Advantages: Too many to list
Disadvantages: pricey

...When looking for TV's these days, it helps to have research done as what the TV's are all about these days, what you get for your money, and how technically minded you are, Today, you either get Plasma or LCD with most of the old Cathode Ray Tubes(CRTs) phased out. One such model is PZ800B model 42 inch made by Panasonic. This range of TV is claimed to be the top of the award winning VIERA range from Panasonic. If you do not want to comprimise on quality, then believe this is the TV you want to go for. SIZE This model is 42 inch and also available in 50 inch. So when choosing any TV, make sure it fits! Unless of course you hang with a wall bracket on the wall. APPEARANCE Panasonic call this design 'one sheet of glass' and boy you can really appreciate it when you place it on the purpose built stand...

Review of Panasonic TH-42PZ800B

Panasonic nearly perfect as usual

Advantages: excellent picture, lots of inputs and very stylish
Disadvantages: not great sound

...The Panasonic Viera is truly a great TV, and as usual, I had looked around many review websites before I finally settled on this product. It really is 42 inches of viewing pleasure, especially with it being 1080p, which really gives a crisp and clear picture. For all the techies out there who love the specifications, it comes with 2 scart inputs and 3 HDMI inputs and a contrast ratio of 30000:1 which makes it ideal for those that like to hook their xBox up to the television. The television itself is extremely easy to set up and is very stylish in appearance and the colour reproduction and black levels are second to none, it genuinely is an excellent television. The only slight downside is that the sound isnt amazing from the television speakers, but this is to be expected i suppose - you really need to invest in a good surround...

Review of Panasonic TX-32LXD500

Panasonic Lumix FS7

Advantages: Perfect picture
Disadvantages: None

...I have just replaced my Fuji fine pix with another camera, and whilst buying my boyfriend bought himself a Lumix FS7 which I am now regretting not getting for myself. Always the way, but whenever I go shopping for something electrical, some guy in a suit always sways me towards something different. Which I should really learn from and just buy online, its usually cheaper anyway. The Panasonic Lumix FS7 Digital camera comes in a range of different colours; it cost £130 which for a 10.1 Megapixel camera was pretty good and the deal we got meant that a free case came with it as well as an additional memory card. So there were no qualms on the price. 10.1 Megapixels Right away we was impressed with the quality of the images this camera was taking, I also test the pictures out on phones and cameras by taking one scenic photo, a photo...

Review of Panasonic Lumix FS7

Not to be confused with Patrick Viera

Advantages: Excellent picture quality, good looks and a fair price
Disadvantages: Lower scanning rate

...coping with fast paced action. With a scanning rate of 50Hz it lacks the crispness of the 100Hz models but this is an acceptable sacrifice at this price point. The TX-26LXD70 model does offer 100Hz but will cost a couple of hundred pounds more. Viewing angles are good, which is important in a kitchen where you are moving around. Sound ~ A kitchen isn't the best acoustic environment, all those hard surfaces create a hollow, echoing space but despite this the Panasonic does produce very acceptable sound from its internal speakers. Forgiving the predictable lack of bass which is normal for a screen this small audio is good across the range with impressive detail in the higher ranges and doesn't suffer too much in high action film sequences. Connectivity ~ The level of connectivity is appropriate for the price and, given its likely use...

Review of Panasonic TX-26LMD70F

Panasonic Lumix TZ6, Versatile compact with great image quality

Advantages: Fantastic little camera with 12 x zoom & 10.1MP (better than TZ5), but cheaper than TZ7
Disadvantages: No HD movie mode, not very cheap

...The Panasonic Lumix TZ6 is a great little camera that I have used to compliment my large DSLR (a Nikon D90 I have also reviewed), which is too big and expensive to be taken everywhere. Specification The TZ6 is compact camera with 10.1 MP, which is plenty of pixels for all but the larger prints and harshest crops. This means that in normal conditions there will never be pixelation, in fact too many megapixels squashed onto a sensor can actually reduce the image quality. The most important feature of this camera is the 12x zoom, 25mm wide angle, Leica lens. Leica is a quality brand, and this lens is no exception, it produces quality images and the lens slides out of the camera quickly and smoothly. There is no lens cap, but slide across covers, as in most other digital compacts. Design For such a versatile camera, it is...

Review of Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ6

Panasonic DMR-EZ28

Advantages: Simple to use, easy to use, produces good recordings, looks ok.
Disadvantages: Not really any

...Was really impressed with this, Panasonic has always been one of the best in the business and this DVD recorder is no exception. Look and Design It's of a reasonable size and weight and fits easily into an average cabinet. It has width: 430mm, depth: 330mm and height: 59mm. It weighs 3.2 kg It isn't overly flashy and just looks like an average DVD player. But this also means it blends in quite well and doesn't contrast with anything. Function It's very easy to use with a simple and easy to navigate menu as well as a one click VIERA button on the included remote that just records the program you are currently watching. Playback is also very simple as is moving the recorded file to DVD. What's great about this DVD recorder is that it actually makes the recorded file better than the original broadcast producing amazing...
