Panasonic has launched a new series of 1080 progressive scan full HD pro plasma displays that includes a 50-, 65- and a whopping 103-inch model (the TH-50PF9UK, TH-65PF9UK and TH-103PF9UK, respectively). With 2.07 million pixels (1,920 x 1,080) of resolution, these 1080p HD pro plasmas offer about twice the resolution of standard high-definition models and produce the entire color range specified in the HDTV standard (ITU-R, BT709). The displays feature a high contrast ratio of 5,000:1 and 16-bit processing to reproduce super-crisp motion pictures with 4,096 steps of gradation. For the full 1080p models, Panasonic has developed a Super Cinema mode that uses the Digital Color Reality feature to reproduce the warmth of light and delicate shading in each scene. $5,995 (50-inch); $10,995 (65-inch); $69,999.95 (103-inch)
