Best contrast. Smallest screen size is 42” (107cm). Panasonic is the world leader in plasma panel technology. The technology is still evolving and improving. Plasma panels have an antiglare coating applied to the front of the screen which significantly cuts down on glare. When it comes to large screen sizes 50” and larger plasma comes out cheaper than LCD. Very fast response time typically 1ns (nanosecond), which is 0.001ms (milliseconds). You can get image retention, which can last for hours before disappearing but only with an abnormally excessively high contrast setting. Burn-in is permanent and that only happens if you leave a high contrast bright still image on the screen for hours. Plasma TV’s normally have an automatic screen saver so after just a few minutes of leaving a still image on the screen the TV drops by a large amount the brightness and contrast thus protecting the screen from damage. With a “normal” viewing setting and a correctly adjusted contrast setting image retention or burn-in won’t happen.
