panasonic tc-p55gt30 v. tc-p55vt30 ? Are there features on the plasma Panasonic TC-P55VT30 that warrant the expense over the TC-P55GT30?

Here's a CNET link that discusses some of the differences: http://reviews.cnet.com/flat-panel-tvs/panasonic-tc-p55gt30/4505-6482_7-34468658.html

if money was no object....i would buy the elite....its bigger (70 inch i believe)....its the only LED ive seen to best a plasma, BUT with a price of almost 8 g's id def rather have the VT, and definitely if the VT beats last years model. so basically the elite is nicer, BUT id rather spend more money on the vt and get a bad ass surround sound :)

That's not a valid model number. The number after the P is the screen size, so TC-P42xxx would be a 42" set, not a 60", and the current series are the xT50's, so the second half seems wrong too. Without the correct model number, no one can say whether its compatible or not. That said, I'd recommend the Panasonic TY-CC20W over this, its a lower profile camera with a better mounting system (magnetic, clips securely to a metal plate in Panasonic TV's) and produces a great picture (720P). Given this may be out of stock, the TY-CC30W release may be eminent. This camera works fine on the TV models listed in its compatibility list, its just larger and lacks the magnetic mount, so its not as secure as the Panasonic models, but still works fine. For the record these cameras are more expensive because the chips to encode the video have to be in the camera, whereas cheap webcams rely on the laptop for encoding

Best Buy matched Frys' $549 price. After tax, it was $602 with free shipping and setup. A great deal for a plasma. I'm afraid if something goes wrong I won't be able to get a deal quite like this. The only problems I have now are some men logo silhouttes that go away when playing tv/blu ray and some grain in the picture. How typical is the grain/noise for plasma. I read varying takes on it. I have until tomorrow to buy the extd. warranty from Best Buy. I'll check what coverage my credit card gives as well. Thank you all!

If you click on a VT or GT for info, there is a comparison chart just below the specs. The Difference listed between the VT and GT is the VT has a feature for contrast called "Infinite Black Pro" while the GT is called "Infinite Black". The VT has 3 speakers driven by 30 watts. The GT has only 2 speakers driven by 20 watts. And finally, the VT has a total of 4 HDMI hookups and the GT has total of 3.

There is no comparison with the Panasonic plasmas unless you move up to a VERY expensive LED. These are bargains. If you want to step up slightly in picture quality from the Panasonic S60, look at the Panasonic ST60 series. Those have a shade darker blacks and a less reflective screen. Check the CNET reviews if you have any doubt as they are well known for their reviews.

Here's a link to the warranty. http://www2.panasonic.com/consumer-electronics/support/Warranty-Information/details-TH-58PZ800U Failure rates have come down from about 6% to 1% as the technology and the manufacturing processes have improved. I've read that the average repair cost for a plasma is over $1000, so I'm seriously considering a extended warranty from either DTVexpress or Squaretrade. The cost over 5 years is not too expensive (between $150 and $400 which depends on the the initial cost of the TV) which will give me some peace of mind when a fault occurs.

With my Panasonic plasmas (42" and 50"), which are 2006 and 2007 models, I have found the upscaling very good. In fact, it's hard to get around them, since these plasmas have native resolutions that no DVD player can match (expect for 1080p models). 720p on both 42" and 50" models is not quite true 720p (it's acutally 768p), so no matter what, the Panasonic will be doing some upscaling. As far as medium DVD players and DVD upscalers for around $100 and below, I have seen very little difference. Even compared to my 4 year old Sony 480p player. I would say HDMI provides a smidge better detail, but it's not dramatic by any means. I haven't tried the up-market upscalers (Oppo, Reon chip), so I can't comment on them, but I doubt the difference would be dramatic--the Panasonic just has to do too much upscaling on it's own, regardless of what signal you send to it... My brother says his 700U 1080p also has very little difference with new upscaling DVD players as opposed to his older 480p player, so it looks like Panasonic's upscaling chips on these TV's are indeed rather good...

I am sorry but I do not know. I suggest that you could download the specs and maybe the owner's manual from the Panasonic web site and check that way.

I own a Panasonic TC-P555T30, Plasma Vierra 3D. I believe both yours and my tv are in the same family? So I think this package will work for you? Regardless what I think, ....if your tv requires "Shutter 3D Lenses," then this package will work with your tv.

Hi! I have been reading up on both tv's and it looks like the panasonic V10 is by far the best of the both. I just purchased the sammy b860 and also trying to find a good deal with the panny V10 (since it cost more). Both tv's can display the 24p at 96hz(24hzx4=96hz), so since the panny G10 can only do the 24p at 48hz(ficker problem). That's why tto me the sammy B860 is bump to second best, but this sammy has a buzzing sound if you live high above sea level. Remember this is just my opinion. hope this help someone......:)

It's about 60% claimed now... If you want it, I would get it now!I own 2 Panasonic Plasma's both purchased from Amazon, excellent service and delivery as well.I would not dream of buying a tv anywhere else anymore, and not 1 lcd or led tv comes close a panasonic plasma! (Sorry Sony ;o) but it's true!)I also love the THX setting for the picture on my panasonic's, I would have loved it if vieracast would have been a part of the tv last year as well.So anyway, GO FOR IT!!!! You won't regret it!

I've had a Panasonic 58" plasma for about 4 years. It gets a heavy dose of ESPN Sport Center fixed borders and a steady diet of Role Playing Games with static screen elements from the Xbox 360. I have never had any problems with burn in or image retention. The only problem I see with my plasma is that it can suck enough power to set off the alarm on my A/V power conditioner on games that use white loading screens (solution - turn off the alarm).

I don't know if you made your purchase yet or not, but I'd check out the difference in glare/reflections from the screens. I have heard the Sony has a non-glare screen, but most plasmas have a glass screen that reflects background light and can be distracting.

I have the VT30 65 inch and I never had a problem or issue with it. As for the warranty. Panasonic has a very pricey extended warranty you can purchase. If you recently purchased your set within the last 90 days, you might want to check out how much an extended warranty will run you with Square Trade. It is usually offered with purchases through Amazon or other online products. Their prices are very reasonable for all the coverage you receive. I recently learned, you don't have to buy your product on the internet to receive the coverage as long as you purchase a contract within 90 days. Had I known that when I purchased my HDTV, I would have purchased a warranty through them. It will save you a bundle.
