We got a new tv today. Panasonic P50UT50 … it is 3D Ready. We thought it’d be ready for us, but then, sometimes issues just aren’t apparent until it’s too late. It’s a great tv, but out glasses don’t work with it.<\/p>\n
I have the Playstation 3D Display. 3D is awesome on it. Active Shutter Glasses are not all universal, even with Active Shutter Tv’s, like this one from Panasonic. Plasma is lovely (We only have had LCD and lately LED tv’s in our house, never plasma until now.<\/p>\n
Plasma displays didn’t much interest me until the past year. Now they are way down in price, and decent models outshine LED ones easily. No more trying to compare apples and oranges. 600mhz Plasma is easy to see since … well, nobody else makes them now and the boxes are well marked and descriptions and on and on.<\/p>\n
What’s the future? I can only say we are converted over to the idea of Plasma displays finally. I’d like to say the 3D is great, but can’t since we only have Active Shutter Playstation Glasses right now. I really didn’t look into anything about changes to Active Shutter 3D, and I’m kind of surprised that I didn’t know, even so. All in all it’ll be a hard thing for us to come up with enough pairs of glasses for the several movies we have in 3D, for the family. We have plenty of them for the display in my office, but that’s a tiny display (23″) and when I got that (Nov 2011) I knew it’d be that the glasses would be compatible with the other Active Shutter 3D TV’s made by different companies. Ha ha ha.<\/p>\n
They do work wonderfully for my PS Display 3D. I like the visual red dots on the monitor letting me know 3D is on and sending.<\/p>\n
The newer version of what we need for this Panasonic P50UT50 connect via Bluetooth, apparently.<\/p>\n
This TV replaces a horrid Vizio we’d purchased at Costco some years ago. It was great at first. So tired of it fast. Needed something larger and wow does 50″ help. I can read the DirecTv Guide now. PS Store. Game menus. TV menus. From the couch. Yay!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
