Editors' rating: 3.5
The good:Reproduces deep black levels with realistic shadow detail; accurate grayscale after calibration; extensive picture controls including custom color temperature settings; extremely compact, minimalist design with robust build quality; versatile picture-in-picture; optional, swappable inputs.
The bad: Relatively expensive; inaccurate primary color of green; no stand, speakers, or tuner included; sparse connectivity with just two HDMI, one PC input and no S-Video or composite inputs.
The bottom line: Although expensive and light on features compared with consumer sets, Panasonic's TH-50PF11UK 50-inch professional plasma monitor delivers pro-level picture quality.
