Manufacturer's Description
Panasonic's V-real collection of leading-edge imaging technologies has evolved into the V-real II and V-real Pro II systems. These new technologies combine expertise gained in developing the high-definition cameras used to broadcast the Olympics Games with advanced authoring technologies developed at the Panasonic Hollywood Laboratory (PHL).

Every system, device and component in VIERA reflects Panasonic's relentless pursuit of superior image quality from every angle. The result is video reproduction that reaches the level of art.

In addition to inheriting the video control for each field from previous models, VIERA incorporates Clear Picture technology that provides finer video control for each image pattern. This newly developed Panasonic technology also improves "pure red" and "clear blue" reproduction, so you enjoy clear, vibrant images with vivid colours and remarkable depth.

Sub-Pixel Controller technology sharpens images by correcting the contours of each dot. Afterimages (hold time) in moving pictures have been reduced by about 50% compared with our previous models. This minimizes blurriness and provides smoother, sharper reproduction of fast-moving images.
VIERA is ideal for viewing action movies or watching baseball games, football games, and broadcasts of other sports.

Best 32" out there!
I spent a good couple of months sizing up the LCD market before plumping for this tv.

I was set on a 32" and key for me was picture quality, especially for sport. I have to say having looked at lots of different brands and models this tele had the best PQ on a standard definition feed by some way.

I've always been a SONY devoutee but having seen this next to sony's 32" offering the PQ on this easily won me over. I admit the styling is not as classic, but its nicely understated and far from ugly.

The standard definition when viewing through sky is great - the 100hz really shows when watching fast moving sport. There's a noticeable lack of blurring found on cheaper lcds.

The high def really is awesome - even the girfriend was impressed. The only model i thought was better for PQ was the philips 9731d - but that is £300 more and in my view not £300 better (especially as i have owned a tempremental Philips CRT!)

Also the sound is fantastic for an LCD, so much so i'm now not sure a surround system is required.

The menu interfaces are easy to use. It was out the box and set up in less than ten mins. Attched to the sky HD, wii and DVD player in no time.

Overall I couldn't be happier and am yet to find a fault on this tele, and hence can't reccommend it enough.

Viera Good
It took months to decide on a LCD, as I was put off by the LCDs problems with fast moving images and the ghost effects on screens. When this one came out I researched the LCD to make sure that its worth the money and is "future proof". This has matched all my expectation from what I want from a new TV with crystal clear pictures, excellent for sport with the 100mhz refresh rate and a dream to behold.
Styling is classy and simple but with the brilliant black finish will make any room complete - considered far better than the sony styling that seems so dated.
Able to set up and connect all the gadgets in 10min and watch the brilliant picture. Which was great as I could not wait to watch my new TV
Menus and remote is easy to use and I could get everything sorted without reading the manual, but will be doing so now and use all the loads of features.
Sound - top class and do not need a home cinema to watch my favourate action movies. SRS Trusound makes a big difference and has been effectively integrated into the set. Small speakers but big sound!
I would recommend this TV over any other 32" model today - better than Sony by far and at a lower price than their new models.
Go on get it - its worth every penny!

Money well spent
I like many of you who read the reviews, rely on the honest judgement of fellow consumers as to whether it is a worthwhile purchase.

And I can definitely say that the Panny 700 is well worth the wait (when they come into stock!). After reading reviews and magazine articles, the LXD700 was the clear favourite even against the Sony D3000 (at a similar price). Personally I would recommend spending the extra £150 odd for the LXD700 model rather than the LXD70 model. The extra HDMI and SD card slot will always come in handy in the future, and the sound on this model compared to the LXD70 is worth the money alone in my opinion.

The picture is fantastic, eventhough my freeview reception is pretty poor where I live. And it is when you play a DVD through HDMI or use the Xbox360 is when the true testament to how good this LCD really is compared to the cheaper £500 ones.

I would certainly recommend it...go on...treat yourself!
