Video enhancement circuitry includes a wide-band video amplifier, horizontal and vertical edge correction, and progressive scan conversion, which turns interlaced images into progressive ones. Blooming is kept to a minimum, thanks to the set's Invar shadow mask. The set also includes other video enhancements such as velocity modulated scan, AI picture control, and video noise reduction.
Picture quality is excellent.
Images are sharp, clean, crisp, and show very little video noise. Colors are very natural and lifelike. The set's 181-channel tuner features auto programming. Panasonic continues to provide its TVs and VCRs with exceptional on-screen icon displays and menus that are easy to use via the 'action' key. As with many sets today, it is trilingual.
