The widescreen TH-42PWD6UY
plasma is equipped with advanced panels featuring
Multi-facet Asymmetrical Configuration Hyper pixels. The
TH-42PWD6UY is outfitted with a 5-facet grid-cell structure
panel that substantially improves the light-emitting balance
of the three primary image-creating colors (red, blue, and
green), allowing the display to reproduce purer whites and
improving the panel’s brightness level by 45 percent. The
panel features a MACH Enhancer – an exclusive Panasonic
contour-emphasis signal processing technology – that
improves an object’s contours to best reflect the manner the
human eye perceives objects.
This 16:9 display comes
equipped with a Super Real Gamma System that reproduces
gradation in steps equivalent to 1,536 shades to deliver
greater image depth and to provide the subtle nuances to
dark scenes. The New Real Black Drive System reduces the
pre-charge emission when reproducing the color black that
produces deeper, richer blacks and an astonishing,
industry-leading 4,000-to-1 contrast ratio. In addition, the
panels’ front protective glass incorporates a new Deep Black
Filter that suppresses light transmittance and dramatically
reduces the amount of external light reflected.
