The TH-42PZ700U does not look like it's trying too hard. Instead, it lets the big screen speak for itself. The glass is surrounded by a thick glossy black bezel on all sides, with a door on the bottom to keep controls out of sight. Another hatch hides a slot for SD memory cards. Speakers--matching in color and barely noticeable--are set on both sides of the display. The understated look would be an elegant addition to any decor. 
The understated elegant looks of this Panasonic HDTV will fit in with any decor. View larger. | 
The TH-42PZ700U has connections for all your home theater components. View larger. | Outstanding Performance
The TH-42PZ700U is 1080p, meaning it has a full 1920 x 1080 resolution, the highest HD resolution available for the clearest and sharpest picture. Because of its plasma display, the black levels are deep and the uniformity of brightness is superb. The unit has 4096 shades of gradation and has up to a 5000:1 contrast ratio. Video noise reduction circuitry and a digital comb filter make sure the picture on screen is always optimal. The TH-42PZ700U will upconvert any signal you feed it and display it at 1080p. Connections
On the back, the TH-42PZ700U features two HDMI inputs, two component inputs, two composite inputs, and two S-Video inputs. Hidden beneath panels in front is another composite and S-Video input, a component video input, and a slot for SD cards. Insert an SD card filled with photos and you can watch a slide show with the built-in Photo Viewer software. TV as an Art Gallery
The TH-42PZ700U includes GalleryPlayer software you can use to display high-definition art and photography on your TV. A free collection of images is included so your television can display art even when it's not on. One-Touch Convenience
When you use the Panasonic EZ-Sync technology to connect to other compatible EZ-Sync devices via the HDMI connector, you get one-touch control over all your home theater components. For example, with one touch of a button, you can turn on the DVD player, turn on the receiver, and set the DVD player as the source while also adjusting the sound level, turn on the TV--which will accept the input signal--and play the DVD. Instead of fumbling to find all the right buttons, you can watch your movies without wondering how to set everything up. The TH-42PZ700U is backed by a 1-year limited warranty for parts and labor. What's in the Box
TH-42PZ700U plasma HDTV, remote control (with batteries), AC cord, pedestal, two cable clamper, and antenna adapter.

Mine died...twice |
|
On a lot of message boards you will see people saying that approximately 2% of Panasonic plasmas built in the timeframe this one was manufactured have fatal flaws. Take a look for yourself, though. Ever seen a consumer product with so many people complaining about it dying on them? I bought mine in December of 2007 and certainly wasn't disappointed with the picture or sound quality. Too bad Panasonic put some very defective pieces into their power board. Mine first died in September of 2009 but (luckily) was still under extended warranty under my AMEX card. An authorized Panasonic service company replaced the P-Board ($650), and less than five months later the tv is once again dead -- the 10 blinking lights of death. No way would I pay out of my own pocket to get it fixed again. What's the over/under on it dying again in just a few months? I'll never buy a Panasonic again... |

After two years, mine just broke as well |
Bought this in Feb 2008 and worked fabulously until last week. Other than the amount of heat it put out, I felt that this was close to a top of the line plasma.
I used all of cnet's suggested settings depending on whether I was watching television (cable box attached via HDMI) or movies/playing games (60G PS3 attached via HDMI) and it performed well.
Last week the screen went red on startup, whether there were no inputs plugged in or not. With a signal from either the cable or PS3 the images were severly solarized red. I did my research, thought it might be one of the control panels or lvds cable (big difference in replacement price) and called panasonic. Since I'm off warranty and this is not a known problem, they directed me to authorized technicians.
So I called geek squad. Geek squad thought it might be the digital board, but of course over the phone it's impossible to give an accurate diagnosis. Estimated repair costs would be $500 at least and two visits.
The main problem with this for me is that even with the diagnosis, it's mostly a guess. Geek squad can swap out the board, but if that doesn't do it, you're paying for another part and another visit and (more importantly) more time I should be at work and not taking a day off to deal with this.
With that analysis, I went straight to best buy's website. They have a recycling program to pick up your old television and recycle it responsibly. Bought myself a samsung un40b6000 and told myself the smaller carbon footprint is worth the less than optimal viewing at an angle. |

good while it lasts |
|
though one pixel did die on my set about a year ago the picture quality is amazing...while it lasts. i just had it turn off on me after almost two years and now i find that it won't turn back on unless i spend 300 dollars to repair it. |

10 Flashing Lights |
Was a superb TV for about 10 months, or yesterday, when all of a sudden the TV turned off - 10 light flashes and repeats -- After searching, it's not looking good. Fortunately it looks like I may still be under warranty - however, this seems to be a systemic problem, and it breaks my heart knowing I've vouched so highly for this set.
Hopefully I'm treated well with service and the problem is fixed in a short manner.
Oh well. |

it broke 2 months out of warranty. |

Had this TV for 14 months and now its dead. Panasonic won't help, this is a common problem with the TV |
