Panasonic PT-61LCZ70 61″ 1080p LIFI Rear Projection HDTV

Introducing the world’s first consumer television with the innovative LIFI light source. LIFI stands for LIght FIdelity. This is a brand-new way to achieve long light source life, quick start-up time and high color fidelity for projection displays. Unlike conventional LCD projection TVs, the LIFI light source lasts so long it might never need to be changed.

The High Intensity Discharge (HID) lamps used in conventional LCD projection TVs contain electrodes that deteriorate, causing diminished brightness and possible damage to the lamp itself. LIFI does not utilize electrodes, which helps achieve more stable performance and a long lifespan.The light source in Panasonic LIFI HDTVs offers full spectrum illumination that faithfully reproduces brilliant red, emerald green and natural skin tones.

Whether you’re watching hidden camera footage of rare Amazon Forest dwellers or taking in the local newscast, the lifelike color is a bright, beautiful enhancement to your HDTV experience. The 1080p HD display capability provides twice the number of pixels as 720p HDTV displays for superior detail and extraordinary HDTV reproduction.The LIFI lamp is an advancement in technology that offers advantages that you can see and hear - or not, in the case of scintillation noise. HID lamps generate noise, especially at high brightness levels.

You won’t hear the hum with the LIFI because it operates at lower wavelengths. Plus, because the small LIFI bulb heats up quickly when you power up, the start-up time of the HDTV is as low as 10 seconds. Once your HDTV is ready to watch, there’s no flicker, as with some LCD TVs.Everything about the LIFI HDTV is designed to bring you to a new level of viewing pleasure. The amazing colors are boosted by the floating feeling provided by the flat panel design, and the audio is rendered more lifelike by the invisible speakers that help fuse picture and sound. The all-black design adds a sleek, modern and luxurious look to your room.

Customer Review: Great HDTV! I am so impressed with the Panasonic PT-61LCZ70 that I finally broke down and wrote my first review after making numerous purchases and never taking the time. The picture is fantastic and highly adjustable. I did my due diligence and reviewed all of the current material avaialable including AVS forum, CNET etc. The picture is bar none without any distortion, bars or other issues that are complained about within the reviews or forums (one wonders if they had a defective set to review). I have compared the picture to my other Panasonic plasma 1080i and 1080p (TH-42Z77U) sets and see no difference in picture quality. The fact that the bulb is warranteed for 5 years and does not need to be replaced, like most DLP sets, is a huge advantage and one that is secondary to the picture quality and esthetics of the unit. Definitely a great value and recommended buy, and as always Amazon delivered flawlessly on price and delivery.
