Finally making the transition from the trade show floor (http://hd.engadget.com/2009/10/06/panasonics-50-inch-1080p-3d-plasma-spotted-watched-at-ceatec/) to retail shelving are Panasonic's famed Viera 3D plasma HDTVs. The company has just announced it will be launching two 1080p panels on April 23 in Japan, priced at ¥530,000 ($5,932) for the 54-inch P54VT2 and ¥430,000 ($4,813) for its smaller sibling, the P50VT2 (pictured after the break). For your money, you'll be getting those deep, deep blacks (http://hd.engadget.com/2010/01/11/panasonics-2010-plasma-line-has-much-better-black-levels/) that ensure a ridiculous 5,000,000:1 native contrast ratio (http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/18/panasonic-viera-g2-hdtvs-boast-5-000-000-1-native-contrast-ratio/), a plethora of inputs highlighted by four HDMI jacks, and of course a pair of those inescapable active shutter glasses (http://hd.engadget.com/2009/09/11/panasonic-full-hd-3d-experience-eyes-on/). Don't worry though, the screens are capable of working at the necessary 120Hz to ensure smooth frame rates for each eye. Whether the premium paid for 3D is worth it, on the other hand, remains a question best left for each deep-pocketed consumer to make on his own.Continue reading Panasonic TH-P54VT2 takes plasma HDTVs into 3D territory (http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/panasonic-th-p54vt2-takes-plasma-hdtvs-into-3d-territory/)
