Digital camera reviews of Philips 42PF7321D 42-Inch Plasma HDTV
Digital camera Review: Great Picture for the Price
Summary: 5 Stars
I found the TV around which to build our new den.
Stores never seem to set up HDTVs properly and do not do them justice. They usually have standard signals that are split to many TVs. The pictures are not true HDTV or the video is highly compressed causing a lot of pixelation (cartoonish squares).
The Phillips looks absolutely fantastic when the component cables are used with Progressive Scan DVDs and HDTV broadcast signals.
Many people do not realize that your regular attic antenna can pick up HDTV signals from the networks that are high quality pictures at the new 16:9 format. The Phillips built in receiver is a must. Many HDTVs do not have an "Over the Air" receiver. This one does! The Super Bowl was crystal clear as was the Piston/Cavaliers game.
There is nothing worse than a stretched or squashed picture. The Phillips also makes it easy to change the 16:9 format to 4:3 quickly for the standard format and composite signals from the satellite/cable box.
Make sure that you understand the difference between the types of signals used. In order to view HDTV, you have to use component, HDMI or HD broadcast programming. Even if the program says it is HD, if it is not received through any of the three available with the Phillips, then you're watching plain old TV. Kind of like using a Porsche to deliver mail.
Summary: The Phillips 42PF7321 meets my standards and expectations.

HDMI makes an uncompressed digital RGB connection from the source to the screen. By eliminating conversion to an analog signal, it delivers an unblemished image. The non-degraded signal reduces flicker and leads to a clearer picture. HDMI intelligently communicates the highest output resolution with the source device. The HDMI input is fully backward compatible with DVI sources but includes digital audio. HDMI uses HDCP copy protection.
The built-in HDTV tuner that receives and displays terrestrial ATSC and unscrambled cable (64/256 QAM) signals.
Because Dolby Digital and DTS, the world's leading digital multi-channel audio standards, make use of the way the human ear naturally processes sound, you experience superb quality surround sound audio with realistic spatial cues.
