Flat-panel televisions based on plasma technology continue to be favored by home theater experts over LCD technology due to plasma's superiority in producing very dark blacks and keeping up with the fastest action without blurring objects in motion. The TC-P50C1 is no exception, and it has the added benefit of an entry-level price for plasma technology.
