V-AUDIO SURROUND

Gives in-depth sound–image effect by early reflection 
data, based on the actual room measurement which 
has been generated from a digital signal processor. 
V-Audio Surround features the unique Panasonic 
digital amplifier and carbon speaker system.

V-AUDIO

Realises a spread of left–right directional sound 
space by using an analogue-based algorithm.

UP TO 100,000 HOURS PANEL LIFE (PLASMA)

VIERA Plasma panels are designed to provide
a panel life of up to 100,000 hours, giving you
years and years of superb entertainment. There is no 
backlight that loses brightness over time, so you can 
count on high-quality images for years to come.

UP TO 60,000 HOURS PANEL LIFE (LCD)

VIERA LCD displays are designed to provide a display 
life of up to 60,000 hours, giving you years and years 
of superb entertainment. 

ECO MODE

When Eco Mode is activated, a photo sensor 
measures the ambient light conditions in the room, 
then the picture settings are automatically adjusted. 
As a result, the TV uses less power in dim lighting 
without any deterioration in image quality.

LEAD-FREE

Because Panasonic is committed to developing 
eco-friendly products, all VIERA Plasma panels are 
mercury- and lead-free. This reduces the impact on 
the environment when recycling or disposing of them 
in future.

ECO LINK

For 2009, VIERA Link has been further developed, 
providing you even more functions, including energy-
saving Eco Link. All Panasonic devices that are 
connected to the VIERA TV will be put into stand-by 
mode when the TV is not in use. What’s more, when 
playback begins on a device, any device that was 
previously in use automatically switches from ON to 
stand-by mode.

DLNA CERTIFIED   

When you connect a PC to your VIERA TV via an 
Ethernet cable, you can play back movies in the 
MPEG-2, AVCHD and DivX formats, as well as view 
pictures (JPEG) stored on your computer’s hard disk 
drive thanks to compatibility with the DLNA standard 
(Digital Living Network Alliance).

VIERA LINK 

VIERA Link uses the control signals that 
are transmitted through an HDMI cable for
automated functions. Just press the VIERA Link button 
on the VIERA TV remote to control your Panasonic 
AV system, including home cinema components,
HD camcorder and LUMIX digital camera.

photos or movies from the menu screen. Now you

operation means you have more fun and less hassle.

VIERA CAST

VIERA Cast offers you exclusive online entertainment 
from providers such as EuroSport, YouTube and 
Google Picasa at a single touch of a button

VIERA IMAGE VIEWER: DIVX, AVCHD, AVCHD LITE

VIERA Image Viewer supports playback of AVCHD, 
AVCHD lite, JPEG and DivX files. Simply insert an SD 
Card into the SD slot of your VIERA TV to enjoy your 
photos on the big screen. Note: VIERA Z1, V10 and 
G15 Series models support DivX, AVCHD and JPEG; 
G10, S10 and X15 Series models support AVCHD and 
JPEG; X10 and C10 Series models support JPEG.

WIRELESS HD (Z1 SERIES)

Wireless HD

5)

 technology is already integrated 

in our high-end Z1 Series, meaning that no HDMI 
cables are needed to connect compatible Panasonic 
devices to the TV. Thanks to wireless streaming 
of uncompressed 1080p content and 5.1 channel 
surround sound directly to the VIERA TV, you have 
more flexibility when hanging the TV on the wall.

DIVX

DivX

6)

 is a video codec that was developed by DivX, 

Inc. based on MPEG-4 technology. It is capable of 
compressing long videos into relatively small data 
files, while preserving high image quality. VIERA 
enables you to directly play back DivX files from SD 
Card or via DLNA

DOUBLE LUMINOUS EFFICIENCY

With the new NeoPDP panel, energy consumption 
has been drastically reduced. NeoPDP TVs need only 
half as much energy as comparable 2007 models
to reproduce the same brightness level, doubling 
their efficiency.

AVCHD AND AVCHD LITE 

With VIERA Image Viewer you are able to playback 
High Definition movies recorded on a SD Card in 
AVCHD and AVCHD Lite format just by simply inserting 
the SD card into the VIERA TV.
