The picture is brilliant and not to be compared with my old PG6000 or LCD / LED devices from the circle, just cream. If you make comparisons in the image quality should also be the only devices in this price range.
However, the panel reflects extreme, if you look for a bright rooms for the F5000 is definitely not the right. Curtains and problem solved. Plasma are very good also in the light cost stop unfortunately many times.
SD material looks very nature not very nice, but you can definitely still sichs watch, with all other devices in the size is no different.
What strikes sooner or later the ABL (what each plasma), if you invest a little time you can but that to a minimum, now I realize of ABL practically nothing at all without sacrificing the image quality (my taste).

Pentile display (RGBG):
You realize in practice really anything about is possibly want an issue for people who sit very close to it (ie ~
On the subject whir:
Yes, there is this machine a relatively strong humming, but I suppose the only true when all is quiet and if I focus on it (~ 3.5-4m distance).
The HDDs (in Streamer + connected external), or if I have the notebook in front of me (Low-noise) drown out the hum egtl already.
One must not focusing on it and thus make themselves unnecessarily crazy, but who's super sensitive should keep an eye out for another model.
In addition, since there are presumably. Remedy with PC Silent foams, if I pull later hang them on the wall, I get rid of this practice can not be seen in any case, in addition to attach to the wall (with an appropriate distance for heat dissipation), is and will supposedly help very well, but even if it would not be so bad.
Sound Quality:
Well, internal TV speakers. What you should expect large here already. They're OK but nothing more, but later comes a "real" sound system here. A favorable for home use, in ner apartment you can not turn up the volume anyway.
Connections:
Not much is offered, 2x HDMI, 1x SCART, 1x Opt. Out, 1x Composite, 1x USB, 1x CI.
Good that there is HDMI Splitter and these are favorable,
Even a headphone output in vain.
How do I continue advancing here I do not know, presumably I put for now PC and XBOX360 always about (I use eh not much) until I'll get an AV receiver for the sound system which then anyway 4x HDMI in, has possibly only NEN HDMI splitter and ne Soundbar, I do not know.
Input Lag:
Have now gambled something XBOX360 and PC, Mainly shooter only the input lag test for. I really realize the best will no delay.
So here you can really gamble safely plan, even shooter.
Fast camera movements such as when turning in shooters makes the TV very well, can here really absolutely do not recognize limitations.
I've also some videos to input lag from other models looked, because the delay is partly really extreme and noticeable, in this TV that is not the case, you can without any problems on it zocken (After the retraction!)
"Gaming Mode" I have never used, there is no reason for.
However, the base is really sleep beneath contempt, probably not go wobbly
Just scrap metal coated with cheap plastic, TV wobbles at the smallest touch.
Who little kids has to run perhaps full of arrogance against the TV or piece of furniture where the TV is on it and so should perhaps think about it to hang the TV directly on the wall or at least place very close to the wall, I think the upsets either directly or Platikrückwand breaks.
Verarbeitsqualität here is not that great, but the price has to come from somewhere.
However, is not dramatic at nem TV, even completely irrelevant because it comes on the wall for me.
Take pictures does not make sense was just very old cell phone with atrocious camera.
In summary:
Pro:
+ Image
+ Price / Performance
+ Gaming
+ Power consumption (at 60 Effiklasse A "thanks Pentile)
Neutral:
+/- Clay
+/- Connections
Contraindications:
Whir lightweight -
- Verarbeitsqualität stand / plastic parts
- Highly specular
Of course, plasma, thus no LCD / LED diseases like Clouding, flashlight effects, etc. perfect lighting and perfect side view of this device, plasma typical precisely :)
Buy recommendation I can say for the people to the mentioned drawbacks of life can and mainly want to use the TV in the dark or at least not well-lit rooms.
A star deduction there whir for light and reflect strong, otherwise good price / performance
UPDATE 12/20/2014:
Am now after almost a year still with TV (60 ") very very satisfied, but something else must also get rid of:
The TV has appreciable DSE (Dirty Screen Effect), ie with a large area of the same color images where camera movements occur, ie football, ski jumping, ice hockey, etc., we see that the image does not appear completely homogeneous, a kind of shadow / dust / haze remains. If you know what to look recognizes Mans Scene manner in series and movie mode.
Well igrendwas is always; (A "consolation" but that this phenomenon also occurs in the higher price category TVs, whether plasma or LED / LCD.
The humming has incidentally done completely for me, one notices nothing of. TV hanging on the wall, 5.1 system hangs. Criticisms are now holding only DSE and mirrors, DSE I would like to do without it but unfortunately that is a common problem, even the 65zoll plasma of VTW60 series have partly. This phenomenon. Mirroring is Jucks me I already knew before buying.
Let's see what the future brings OLED so, yes have to contend with as some diseases. TV buying remains difficult: =)
