According to LG Display, this modification of the structure makes it possible to reduce the size of the electronic circuit (invisible in photo) located just below the sub-pixels without impacting the capabilities of the slab in terms of colorimetry or brightness. | 75" - S-MVA, (Innolux)

Delta E | -- | In true Cinema mode, the Panasonic 55FZ950 TV simply offers a perfect Colorimetry. The average delta E does not exceed 1.6 and all the tested colours are below the threshold of 3, below which the human eye perceives no difference between the color scheme and the expected colors. | -- | -- | -- | -- | -- | -- | -- | -- | - | - |

Leo Bodnar input lag test (the less, the better) | 26ms with [Game Mode] enabled | 110ms with [Normal Mode]
21ms with [Game Mode] enabled FZ950/800 has two options for enabling game mode. One is the traditional way of activating the ‘Game’ picture mode, while the other is a game setting option that can be enabled for any picture mode. Both options bring input lag down to around 21 ms but they differ in other aspects. You can add a shortcut to the ‘Game’ picture mode that can be reached from the Picture menu via the remote control. The game setting option can be enabled for the HDMI port that your game console is connected to for any of the more accurate picture modes (for example Professional).
The Game picture mode forces everything into the DCI-P3 color space, which is very poor practice as it forces non-HDR games that conform to Rec.709 into DCI-P3, with wildly inaccurate colors as a result. The other picture modes can correctly switch between color spaces that correspond to the input signal, so we recommend that you use the game setting option rather than the ‘Game’ picture mode. | --ms with [Normal Mode]

NOTE. | For OLED
Last year, we complained about occasional stutter in motion but it appears to have been fixed completely on FZ950, FZ800 if you remember to deactivate Panasonic’s motion system IFC (Intelligent Frame Creation). However, with IFC deactivated we encountered the issue with OLED panels’ ultra-low response time, which is so fast that it has a tendency to make motion in video shot at low frame rates (such as 24Hz movies) appear stroboscope-like during bright scenes. If you prefer to have IFC activated, we would recommend that you select the personal profile and stay below 3-4 to avoid introducing motion artefacts. However, you will need to endure occasional stutter so it is not a perfect solution. Without IFC, motion resolution drops somewhat and it comparable to last year’s model, and not as good as Sony A8F and LG C8 (even with IFC activated). It is a trade-off between improved motion resolution and motion artefacts.
It is possible to activate Black Frame Insertion (BFI) on FZ800 but just like all other OLED TVs, it runs at a too low frequency to make it even remotely bearable for me watching a movie or anything else. Brightness also drops considerably. Some people may be able to accept this but I have yet to find myself in any situation or scenario where I preferred to have BFI enabled. I |

NOTE. | Всички модели: Поддръжката на HDR не увеличава възможностите за пикова яркост на панела на телевизора.
Модели Full HD и HD: Възможността за изпращане на сигнал, който не е 4K HDR по HDMI зависи изцяло от възпроизвеждащото устройство. Повечето 4K Blu-ray дискове изискват телевизорът да разполага с HDCP2.2, за да възпроизвеждат HDR, докато HDMI входа на този телевизор поддържа само HDCP1.4 и съответно няма как да гарантираме, че ще може да се насладите на цялото HDR съдържание на телевизора. |

Game The suggested choice for the viewer is of course "THX Cinema" if we do not intend to make any adjustments. It is this mode that is set to the correct image reproduction (as the director has seen). If you want to adjust the picture in your own way, it is best to use the "Custom settings" mode. The only step to getting even better image quality is calibration right away.
The first two are the awful Standard and Dynamic modes, Sports and Game make four, and the last six are various attempts at offering accurate colors. It all feels a little overwhelming and from a user standpoint it is hard to understand why there are so many when several of them deliver more or less identical results. | Dynamic

Professional calibration | -- | After entering the THX-Cinema mode, we are welcomed by a suitable color space for Full HD and SD movies. Despite the natural palette, one can feel the slight dominant of red in gray. The image has a slightly yellowish-red hue, and this feeling can be enhanced if we go, for example, from the normal mode, where white is too cold. The brightness curve is programmed to a value of 2.2 (typically for THX), so the picture has more characteristics for viewing during the day. Switching it to 2.35 would give greater depth and separation of plans. The big advantage of the THX mode is the default shutdown of unnecessary image processing systems that can negatively affect the image. Such are, for example, overscan. For the user who unpacked FZ950 fresh from the carton, it will be a good way to get a good color reproduction. However, depending on the art that hits, there may be slight color dominants, like the one described here.
As for the efficiency of color rendering after calibration, the Panasonic FZ950 broke a record in the television category in this respect and I doubt that in the near future a better TV will appear on the market. Saturation of colors and their naturalness can not be accused of anything. Where the color is to be alive and saturated is exactly that, and where it has to be pastel - it is toned down as it should. Everything under exquisite control straight from the studio screen and literally. It is in vain to look for any slightest nuances in this respect on the FZ950. Satisfied even professionals and I dedicate this TV to them. I enthusiastically made the measurement of the expanded template of several hundred color samples and only confirmed the perfect control of the screen.
In other words, the color in Rec 709 can not look better than on the EZ950, because it just looks identical to the original. It is vain to look for small stretches even in dark, yellow tones, where some organic screens take on pink shades. In this condition, this TV set could be immediately taken into the studio for color work.
After applying the recommended settings (described in the introduction), the FZ950 can boast very good image processing. In THX-Cinema mode, no destructive functions such as noise reduction or overscan are turned on, so the picture goes to the screen in almost the same form as it was burned on the disc, or broadcast on television. No changes. It is only worth remembering that if, however, we plan to watch mainly materials subjected to strong compression, for example from television, we can afford to slightly increase the "focus-sharpness" slider. | -- | -- | -- | -- | -- | -- | -- | -- | No |

USB-HDD recording
(with Rewind live TV) Watch a broadcast and / or record another on an optional hard drive | There is dual tuner and dual CI port, so you can watch and record two channels (via PbP) at the same time. Unfortunately, PbP still has some limitations. When activated you cannot use other picture modes that ‘Standard’ and ‘Dynamic’, which is clearly not ideal as both look horrible. It is also possible to use picture-in-picture via the new bottom menu, which is a better solution. Unfortunately, the menu disappears after a short while so it is not a solution.

NOTE. | It is, in theory, possible to hide all connections behind a detachable cover but since Panasonic has once again decided that around half of all ports should point towards the wall, it is practically impossible to reattach the cover. This also complicates a wall-mount installation if you are planning to use SPDIF, more than 2 HDMI ports, the Ethernet port, and more than 1 USB port. It is simply not good enough and comes across as lazy design, especially considering that this has been a major pain point for years. |
