With picture quality this good, the Panasonic TX-42MZ980B knocks the competition out of the park

Panasonic OLED Picture Quality
Featuring a brilliant OLED screen, with cutting-edge processing, the Panasonic TX-42MZ980B delivers class-leading picture purity. Tuned by a leading Hollywood colourist to produce the most lifelike colour, this TV offers you images just like the Director intended.  With flagship Dolby Vision IQ and HDR10+ Adaptive onboard, you also get the best possible contrast, giving you ultimate levels of detail.

HCX Pro AI processor gives you the true colour in your lounge
The advanced HCX Pro AI processor uses a sensor to detect the ambient lighting condition and then adjusts the picture to suit. Each colour tone is adjusted individually, giving this Panasonic 42 inch TV the highest ever colour accuracy.

The ideal picture setting for the content, with Auto AI
Panasonic’s smart Auto AI processor identifies the type of content you’re watching, such as movie, sports, music or news, and automatically optimises the picture and sound settings to suit. This gives you the very best in sound and vision, without having to make any user adjustments.

HDR10+ Adaptive and Dolby Vision IQ – ultimate detail in all lighting conditions
HDR10+ Adaptive and Dolby Vision IQ take HDR10 and Dolby Vision to the next level, making them the ultimate HDR picture processors. HDR10+ Adaptive and Dolby Vision IQ use light sensors inside the TV to adjust the picture quality for the best contrast. This improves the picture’s brightness, without compromising the depth. You get a consistent picture quality, however light or dark your room is.

Multi-format HDR support for a stunning picture from all sources
As well as HDR10+ Adaptive and Dolby Vision IQ, this Panasonic 42 inch OLED TV also offers multi-format HDR, including HDR10+, HDR10, HLG and HLG Photo. With so much HDR processing ability on board, you’re guaranteed the most detailed and brightest picture, whatever the HDR format.

Filmmaker Mode – enhanced
Designed for movie lovers, Filmmaker Mode bypasses the TV’s own motion and picture processing settings and lets you see the image just as the director intended. Aspect ratio, colour and frame settings are all faithfully reproduced, giving you a truly cinematic viewing experience. Now featuring an upgraded colour temperature sensor, it detects lighting conditions more accurately, giving you the ideal image, whatever the ambient lighting.

Netflix Calibrated Mode
If you’re a fan of Netflix, you’ll love Netflix Adaptive Calibrated Mode. Netflix productions are made to the highest technical standards, ensuring they look just as good on the big screen as they do at home. With the Adaptive Calibrated Mode, you get optimal picture quality, in all lighting conditions.

Gaming Optimised
Panasonic’s new Game Control Board lets you easily view settings and make changes on the fly. With their Game Mode Extreme setting, you also get epic responsiveness. Game Mode Extreme almost halves input lag, giving you incredible reaction times. With support for AMD FreeSync and NVIDIA G-SYNC, you also get the smoothest, tear-free motion, making gaming more lifelike than ever. Two gaming sound modes switch between RPG mode for a more cinematic sound experience and FPS mode for when you need to hear the subtle sound of an enemy sneaking up on you.

Theatre Surround Pro and Dolby Atmos Enhanced Sound
Featuring Theatre Surround Pro, the TX-42MZ980B produces a clear, spacious sound. Dolby Atmos compatibility enhances the potential for even more spatial and enveloping audio.

HomeScreen 8.0 for smart TV
The latest version of Panasonic’s HomeScreen makes it quick and easy to access and customise popular settings. Why wade through a load of Apps you’ll never use? Pin favourites, such as YouTube or Netflix streaming apps to the Home Screen, giving you a clear, personalised experience. Support for Google Assistant and Alexa means you can also find content via voice command. With My Scenery, you can even turn the screen into a restful, scenic image, with one of the stored images.
