    PN50B450 50" 720p Plasma TV

    B&H# SAPN50B450 | Mfr# PN50B450B1DXZA

    The Samsung PN50B450 has the features that videophiles demand at a down to earth price. Plasma technology combines the ability to show rich, lush colors with the smoothest moving images possible.

    With an incredible 0.001 ms response time the PN50B450 ensures you'll see all of the action with a minimum of motion blur while Wide Color Enhancer 2 ensures the colors stay true to form.

    The FilterBright antiglare technology minimizes screen reflections and glare when you're viewing in a well-lit room and helps optimize contrast in a darkened room. From a ball game in the afternoon right up to the late night movie the PN50B450 displays a vivid life-like image.

    Create your favorite channels list and you can quickly scan through them with the touch of just one button. This TV will also remember your settings for each video input.

    In Game Mode picture and sound quality are optimized for the special needs of gaming systems but this set can process 3-D games too. You'll need to hook up your PC, add the optional 3-D glasses and select a 3-D game (all available separately) and you'll be rockin' in a 3-D world. With this set's 3-D infrared emitter controlling what each eye sees, you'll see TV like you never have before.

    • 1,000,000,000:1 Contrast Ratio
    A contrast ratio this broad means you'll be able to see detail in all parts of the image without "blowing out" the whites because you turned up the brightness to see detail in the dark parts or "crushing" the blacks because you turned down the brightness to see detail in the light parts.
    • SRS TruSurround HD
    Most DVDs and Blu-ray discs contain multichannel sound, some encoded with up to seven (6.1) channels. TS HD is the answer if you want to enjoy that sound without an expensive and complex A/V receiver. When receiving multichannel content, TruSurround HD "virtualizes" the channels, creating "phantom" speakers that seem to extend all around you, producing an amazing surround sound effect that has to be heard to be believed.
    • Swivel Stand or Optional Wall Mount
    This TV comes with its own swivel stand or you can chose the optional wall mount specifically designed for this unit and hang it on the wall like a work of art.
    • Wide Color Enhancer 2, FilterBright Technologies and 600 Hz Subfield Motion
    Wide Color Enhancer 2 optimizes a given color's hue, resulting in a more natural rendering of colors. FilterBright delivers improved performance in the areas of color saturation, contrast and energy efficiency while 600 Hz Subfield Motion creates clear motion pictures. Together they help create the best TV image possible.
    • Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC)
    Allows you to use the TV's remote control to operate at the push of one button, peripheral AV devices such as a DVD or Blu-ray disc player featuring HDMI-CEC.
    • Game Mode

Picture and sound quality are optimized for the special needs of gaming systems at the touch of a button. And this set can process images from 3-D PC games with optional 3-D games, glasses and a PC.
