32" VIERA 1080p LCD HDTV

Beyond its detail-enhancing 10,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, fast 6.7ms pixel-response time, and expanded x.v.Color-gamut capacity, Panasonic's TC-32LZ800 LCD brings you Motion Focus. This technology detects instances of significant on-screen motion and automatically optimizes the backlight's performance to improve moving-picture resolution for sharper, clearer images. Panasonic's VIERA® Link adds one-button system control with compatible devices. Also, use a PC input to turn your TC-32LZ800 into a whopper of a computer monitor.

Lights! Camera! Motion!

Discover Panasonic's advanced video-reproduction technologies on a modest-sized LCD flat panel HDTV. Discover the VIERA LZ800 series. Thanks to a 1080p resolution, you are able to enjoy your favorite HD video content in the highest resolution available (1920 x 1080) and with the smoothest, most lifelike scanning (progressive scan — the little "p" in 1080p). Speaking of detail, a 10,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio delivers deep black levels for sharp detail, and a Clear Panel high contrast filter enhances performance in low-light conditions. Also, a fast 6.7ms pixel response time means that this LCD panel can keep up with the fastest action in your favorite movies. Finally, as the "icing on the cake", the TC32LZ800 features Motion Focus. This technology detects instances of significant on-screen motion and automatically optimizes the backlight's performance for improved moving-picture resolution and sharper, clearer images.

Move over, George Jetson

Yeah, you all remember that guy . . . George Jetson. Boy, that guy had it easy. He had a robot that did all his laundry and cooking, he had his own theme song, and his job consisted of merely pushing a single button to get things started at the sprocket factory in the morning. Well, here's your chance to find out what "one-button control" feels like. Panasonic's VIERA® Link takes advantage of HDMI's expanded bandwidth and Consumer Electronics Control channel to bring you one-button control of all VIERA-compatible components in your home theater system. Want to watch a DVD or Blu-ray Disc? Simply push PLAY on your remote and watch as all applicable audio and video components power on, including your TC32LZ800, which will automatically switch to the correct video inputs and . . . voila, the sprocket factory is up and running. (When, oh when, will they release episodes of The Jetsons in HD?!)

Ta-da! The extended color gamut

Chances are you aren't planning on using your new HD TC32LZ800 to watch nothing but old Three Stooges episodes in black-and-white. Heck no; you want to watch the latest high definition blockbusters, and you want to see them in color, too! Designed with x.v.Color, the TC32LZ800 offers an extended color gamut, or, in layman's terms, this Panasonic LCD is capable of reproducing 1.8 times as many colors as most previous TV sets. More color? Big deal? Hardly. More color means more areas of contrast can be reproduced for even more detail. More detail means a higher definition, more lifelike video experience.

A side of PC, with an extra helping of SD, please

Coming to the rescue in this multiple-component, integrated-system world, the Sony TC32LZ800 serves up an extra helping of connectivity with a PC input. Surf the net, download online movies, play games or get a little work done, all on 31.5 inches of stunning high definition LCD. Oh yeah, and for sharing your home digital photos with large groups of friends and family, an SD/SDHC card slot lets you plug your SD or SDHC memory card into the TC32LZ800 for a huge, 31.5" slideshow.

BBE ViVA HD3D . . . Uh, can we get an explanation?

What if you could get high-fidelity sound with clear directionality and a powerful center-channel from a two-speaker, built-in audio system? With the combination of Panasonic's TC32LZ800 and BBE® ViVA HD3D sound, you can. Different from the "virtual" surround-sound audio featured by other flat panel HDTVs, BBE ViVA HD3D provides a natural three-dimensional sound image that retains the character, image, directionality, and musicality of the original sound source. Clear directionality is maintained by means of increased width, depth, and height of the sound image. Center-channel performance is enhanced by clearly differentiating monaural source material (like news announcements and movie dialogue) from stereo information (like ambience sound and sound effects). BBE optimizes the sound clarity and intelligibility of your audio experience.

Get tuned in

Geared up and ready for the up-and-coming digital transition (the government mandated switch to all-digital television broadcasting) your new Panasonic TC32LZ800 comes equipped with digital ATSC and QAM tuners. These digital tuners make receiving and enjoying digitally broadcast content — whether from the air or from cable or satellite — easy and worry-free.

ENERGY STAR of approval

Seeking to meet your demand to reduce energy use and preserve the environment, Panasonic has made sure that the TC32LZ800 meets the U.S. government's standard for ENERGY STAR qualification. What does the ENERGY STAR qualification mean? ENERGY STAR is a government-backed program helping businesses and individuals protect the environment through superior energy efficiency. For the family or homeowner, energy efficient choices can reduce energy consumption and expenses by up to one third while resulting in similar savings of greenhouse gas emissions, without sacrificing features, style or comfort. ENERGY STAR helps you make the energy efficient choice. When a product boasts the ENERGY STAR qualification, this means the product meets stringent government standards set by the EPA and US Department of Energy for conserving both energy and the environment. So whether you are concerned for the environment, your pocket book or both, this HDTV helps ensure both are given an easier load to bear.

HDMIncredible

Bringing you the absolute best in connectivity, Panasonic's TC32LZ800 features three HDMI connections. HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the only interface in consumer electronics that can carry both uncompressed high-definition (HD) video and uncompressed multi-channel audio in all HD formats including 720p, 1080i and even 1080p. Your incoming media content comes in a variety of sizes, resolutions and formats, and with that in mind, HDMI systems automatically configure to display that content in the most effective format. Since HDMI carries all channels on video and audio, there is only one cable to plug into any HDMI-enabled source and display device. No more complicated cable set-up when installing your home theater system, and no more ugly cable mess behind your components. HDMI supports standard, enhanced, or high-definition video, plus multi-channel digital audio on this single cable. Also, HDMI is fully backward-compatible with DVI. (Please note that a physical adapter, sold separately, is needed to make the conversion from HDMI to DVI.)

Avoid the 'No Wire' ire

The advent of HDMI has been monumental in the advancement of all your favorite audio and video gadgets. Don't miss out on all that your new TC32LZ800 offers — in terms of high-definition audio and video connectivity — by leaving a set of HDMI cables off the list. Vann's sales representatives are here to explain all your options, so you can make the best purchase and get the most out of your hi-def system. Call for expert advice: 1-800-769-5668.
