We replaced a CRT 18 years old 27 “along with this and is a beauty. I am a news cameraman with thirty years in the business so I watch a lot of high-end monitors at work. When I went to a store, I did not expect to get a lot in this series 720p and frankly not excite me very much. After looking at the top tier in September from Sony, LG, Samsung, Toshiba and Mitsubishi are finished on the Panasonic. I was shocked at how good all sets of higher level, but it seemed the Panasonic seemed to have a little more detail in the blacks down and seemed to track highly detailed scenes, with less digital noise than others, but is tight across the board. Off-air ATSC tuner is excellent and the set of all the inputs you could reasonably necessary. I’m not going to connect an iPod so that it was not a factor in my choice. My DVD player is older and does not pass audio through the HDMI output so I connected to the set via component out and I feel no need to switch to a BlueRay player. In this dimension it is a wonderful combination. My general feeling is that if you watch a lot of HDTV is a live or tape as sport Panasonic flat screens and then just seems to breathe a bit ‘over the signal quality. For the film is more of a level playing field. This is somewhat subjective, but as I see it. It’s amazing how much money goes into this stuff anymore.

Very Good 26 “LCD television, and it’s the right format to our room ….. I think that score Panasonic beats them all hands down …. we replaced our very old CRT TVs with new LCD and the light does not occupy more space in the old unit has done …….. in my personal opinion, this LCD Panasonic is the best image and sound to other brands, and I did a lot of comparison shopping. … . I really like the timer function too …… the set-up menus and features are very user-friendly. … The remote is not illuminated it has no internal light … but I do not believe that no of them have a light inside ….. not a complaint but the remote has more on it than I could ever use …. I have owned my 42 “Panasonic plasma for over 2 years and are very happy too …. Plasma is a bit ‘of a better image, the colors are more vivid, an LCD is a plasma, but also costs more money too …. and a plasma weighs more and consumes more energy than a LCD TV … This TV is only in glossy black, the frame and base, which seems very nice, but it shows every speck of dust. I also called Panasonic and complained that ….. not to offer a different color, like silver or gray …. I believe that most all other brands, with 42 “are also only in gloss black this year ….. Well …. my wife does not mind glossy black ….. Last month I bought TC-L32X1 for our bedroom and we liked it so well that we bought the TC-L26X1 LCD size 26 ‘for the guest room …… this TV also has a dock to connect your iPod, but I’m not into any of those things so I can not say how it works …. sorry … I also sent a photo of our new TV here and this is my pop cans next to the TV so it can get an idea of size, etc. … and the President happens to be on the news when I took the photo ….. I recommend this LCD TV Panasonic TC-L26X1 …… are very beautiful and deserves the little extra money for other brands ……

I just received this tv yesterday and all I can say now is WOW!
E ‘in our bedroom and looks great (photos and aesthetics wise). The iPod dock is also very beautiful. The sound is excellent for a small (?) TV.
One thing to note. If you’re not a magician, be sure to use tongs long needles to get the screws started in the support / base when connecting to the TV. Very difficult to do with a simple screwdriver.
My only complaint so far is that the dormant timer has a dedicated button on the remote. You have to go in 2 different menu screens to get to it. My way around that was to each of the TV has 5 timers so that everyone goes to 11 Sunday night through Thursday night. This obviously is not a problem if you use it somewhere other than a bedroom.
P.S. - Do not be swayed by talk about the size of your TV and the viewing distance. This 26 “is a perfect size for our bedroom (he sits on the dresser 5 drawers about 12 feet from my pillow.) Rankings for LCD I had a 42″ minimum, which is not true IMHO.
