Conclusion

Panasonic can be a very frustrating company to deal with because for every big thing they do right they drop the ball on some smaller detail that negates all their hard work. For example they introduce professional calibration controls but only include two point white balance and a limited CMS. They introduce a plasma with black levels to rival the Pioneer but mess up the handling of 50Hz material. They introduce reference standard full HD 3D performance but screw up the design of the active shutter glasses. They include video processors with excellent scaling capabilities but despite repeated requests they still can’t include proper cadence detection.

The P42GT20 is a good example of this because there is a lot about this display to recommend including the accurate colours and excellent greyscale, as well as the superb black levels, the reference 3D performance and the THX preset. Unfortunately there are also problems such as the issues with 50Hz, the clipping of peak white, the increased level of PWM noise and the smaller screen size robbing the 3D of any real impact.

This last point in particular is an issue for a 3D display and as a result I suspect the P42GT20 will mostly appeal to gamers because most games are at 60Hz which means the 50Hz issues are less of a problem and the combination of a reasonable price coupled with the minimal lag time and lack of ghosting provides a solid platform for 3D gaming.
