Technical Information

Closed Caption (CC)

For viewing the CC of digital broadcasting, set the aspect to FULL (If viewing with H-FILL, JUST, ZOOM or 4:3; characters might be cut off).

The CC can be displayed on the TV if the receiver (such as a set-top box or satellite receiver) has the CC set On using the Component or HDMI connection to the TV.

If the CC is set to On on both the receiver and TV when the signal is 480i (except for the HDMI connection), the CC may overlap on the TV.

If a digital program is being output in analog format, the CC data will also be output in analog format.

If the recorder or output monitor is connected to the TV, the CC needs to be set up on the recorder or output monitor.

Press the FORMAT button to cycle through the aspect modes. This lets you choose the aspect depending on the format of the received signal and your preference. (p. 18)

Each model boasts a Full HD 1080p resolution, ensuring that viewers can enjoy crisp images with fine detail.

One of the standout characteristics of these models is the Infinite Contrast feature, which enhances the depth of blacks and improves overall picture quality. This allows for greater detail in shadows and darker scenes, making movies and other content more engaging. The C2 series also includes Viera Image Viewer, enabling users to enjoy photos and slideshows directly from an SD card.

Another important aspect of these televisions is their connectivity options. They come equipped with multiple HDMI inputs, allowing users to connect various devices such as Blu-ray players, gaming consoles, and sound systems with ease. Additionally, an integrated USB port enables users to view media files and connect various peripherals for enhanced functionality.

Panasonic’s C2 series also features a sleek design that complements any living room decor.
