Panasonic's PT-40LC12 is a widescreen multimedia projection monitor that can display HDTV or PC content along with standard definition TV signals. The 40-inch widescreen display uses LCD technology to deliver a crystal clear picture. The design is unusual, with the silver-framed display floating on two cylindrical legs as well as a center silver column above a gray base that houses twin stereo speakers and front panel inputs and controls. Because the screen is an LCD, the brightness is exceptional and the display is relatively thin and light, providing the option of mounting the monitor on the wall. The PT-40LC12 can display signals in 480p, 720p, or 1080i (with an HDTV receiver). The picture is excellent, with sharp contrast, true-to-life color, and well defined edges. A 3-D Y/C digital comb filter offers digital correction to the images and eliminates dot crawl. The audio system is up to the demands of home theater, with twin stereo speakers, simulated surround sound, and BBE High Definition. You can set the bass, treble, and balance according to the demands of your room and your preferences, or you can output to external speakers using the fixed audio output jacks. This set can accommodate VGA, SVGA, or XGA output from a computer, along with PC sound output, and you can even view the PC content in one of the picture-in-picture windows if you choose to do so. The PIP functions include split screen or PIP and resizing options for the PIP window, with dual NTSC tuners providing the option of displaying two live programs at once without the need for an additional device. Among the convenience features are a selectable 4:3 scan mode, video input skip, picture memory settings for video inputs, a programmable scan function, and rapid tune/recall for quickly returning to a previous channel. The A/V inputs, S-video inputs, a D-Sub15 RGB input, and component video inputs, along with a headphone jack will accommodate all your needs. The universal remote control has a disc controller, and it can be used to control your VCR, cable box, DVD player, stereo receiver, CD player and tape deck. The remote is especially well designed for night use, as all the buttons stay lit as long as you hold down the illumination button.

More Than Just a TV—Web Browsing and PC Gaming The PC inputs on our LCD projection TVs make them ideal for use as large multimedia monitors. Connect a PC and experience web surfing, gaming, and even DVD playback using a large, crisp, high-resolution display. View Digital Programming Without A Cable Box Panasonic LCD Projection HDTVs with CableCARD slots can accept a small card that allows you to receive standard definition and high definition digital broadcasts—no bulky set-top cable box. Contact your cable company to find out if they offer this service in your area. Receive Over-The-Air HDTV Broadcasts Sports, movies, and original network programming are all available in high definition from many local broadcasters. Receive and view local over-the-air broadcasts on this TV in stunning HDTV clarity using the built-in HDTV tuner. If your cable company passes through HDTV broadcasts from local broadcasters, you can decode and tune those as well. A Single Cable Carries High-Quality Digital Audio and Video If you have even a moderately complicated home theater setup, you probably have a pile of tangled cables on the floor behind it. Imagine replacing all those cables with a single cable that carries both digital video and audio at the same time. With the new HDMI standard, that's exactly what you get. The HDMI connector on this TV accepts high-quality digital video and audio via the same thin cable, allowing you to run one cable from the source to the TV. Share Digital Photos On the Big Screen with Photo Viewer The best images you can ever view on a Panasonic LCD Projection TV don't have anything to do with HDTV. Share your JPEG photos taken with a Lumix® digital camera on a Panasonic LCD Projection TV using the built-in SD card slot. Simply insert the SD card, which is about the size of a postage stamp, into the SD slot on the TV and enjoy a photo slideshow. A Cinema-Style Viewing Experience At Home This widescreen TV features a width-to-height ratio similar to movie theater screens, providing a theater-like experience at home. View HDTV broadcasts and widescreen DVDs the way they were meant to be seen. Crisp, Lifelike Details HDTV broadcasts and DVDs offer more detail and better color than analog broadcasts, and it takes a high-resolution display to deliver all that picture information. The high pixel count of this LCD projection display provides fine detail for outstanding HDTV reproduction. More pixels also translate into less stair-stepping artifacts; curved and diagonal edges look smooth and natural. Select Video Inputs Directly A lot of TVs force you to cycle through every single video input in sequence. With modern TVs accepting more and more video inputs, you end up pushing the "video" button five or six times before you get to the source you want to watch. This TV lets you select video inputs directly so you can jump right to the input you need.
