Panasonic PT-61LCZ70 Review

Editors' rating

The good: LIFI bulb guaranteed to last five years; solid standard-def video processing; numerous picture controls including user color temperature adjustments.

The bad: Reproduces a light shade of black; inaccurate primary colors; faint horizontal bands across middle of screen.

The bottom line: The long-lasting bulb of the 61-inch Panasonic PT-61LCZ70 rear-projection HDTV is a bright idea, but doesn't outweigh its picture-quality problems.
