Description
The generation of high brightness LCD panels are great for boosting colors and vibrancy. But they can only truly improve contrast if you can control their brightness in dark picture areas. Local dimming makes this possible by letting separate clusters of a TV's backlights output different brightness levels, so brightness can be reduced for dark areas without compromising the intensity of bright areas.
Cue the Quad Core Pro engine. This cleverly separates the smart TV processing from the picture processing, so the smart elements run faster and smoother while pictures look cleaner, crisper and more refined - regardless of whether they're web streams, broadcasts, Blu-rays or 4K feeds.
4K UHD TVs can deliver up to four times as much resolution as Full HD TVs. As you would expect, this means you can see far more detail and texture in 4K UHD pictures, but colors also look more natural, objects look more solid and almost three dimensional, and the extra detail creates a greater sense of depth. Many describe the 4K effect as feeling more like looking through a window than watching a screen. Especially when all that extra resolution is backed up by the wealth of high-end picture quality features Panasonic brings to its 2015 4K UHD TVs.

Mastering the magic of light
4K UHD TVs can deliver up to four times as much resolution as Full HD TVs. As you would expect, this means you can see far more detail and texture in 4K UHD pictures, but colors also look more natural, objects look more solid and almost three dimensional, and the extra detail creates a greater sense of depth.

Especially when all that extra resolution is backed up by the wealth of high-end picture quality features Panasonic brings to its 2015 4K UHD TVs. -
4K Ultra HD - delivers four times the picture resolution of a normal HD TV
With their 3840 x 2160 resolutions, 4K Ultra HD TVs make pictures look so detailed and pristine that you feel like you're looking at the real world through a window rather than watching TV. Especially when features like high brightness/high color space panels and the powerful Quad Core Pro engine are on hand to tease out every last tiny detail 4K has to offer. -
Studio Master Color - an advanced LED backlight design which produces a wider color range
By using special wide color phosphor technology capable of producing a wider color range, It covers more than 90% of DCI standards. Studio Master Color TVs give you a more subtle, naturally toned color palette which, unlike most LCD TVs, still looks authentic in any scene.
