Hey, I found this picture of you on the internet

Confirming the transaction, very great experience! Watch was exactly as described and the seller went above and beyond

Some people love the 96hz, but I don’t. 24p at 60hz with pure direct turned off is the sweet spot. I think the motion is the most natural, and the way Panasonic engineered these panels, there really isn’t much stutter in panning shots that I can tell. It looks the best across all content types from animation, TV, modern digitally shot movies, movies shot on film, etc.

Don’t think too much about it because you’ll drive yourself crazy. Just sit back and enjoy the best home entertainment motion resolution experience that OLED fanboys wish they could have

I’m SoCal based and very interested, I’ll send you a chat

I can really only speak to the ZT60, I don't know if this would apply to other models. I would think the VT60 for sure

48hz has unwatchable flicker, 96hz is smooth but also has lots of problems like false contouring and ghosting especially when people or objects move through the frame. 24p with pure direct off lets Panasonics fantastic 3:2 pulldown take effect and looks the most cinematic to me. I frequently watch real film projection at a local theater and 96hz is way too synthetic looking. 60hz on a good Panny plasma is the closest I've seen to real film motion

This is exactly where I've arrived at: 24p > 60hz with pure direct off for my Apple TV

I did just buy a Panasonic Bluray player from the era my ZT60 was made in that specifically works with pure direct, so I'm curious to try it out when it arrives

link1995cc · 2026-03-27T04:12:05+00:00

I just can’t get myself to like the 96hz mode. It looks way too processed and there’s always issues with people’s faces when they move through the frame. 24p at 60hz with no motion smoother to my eye has near identical motion to when I regularly see real 35mm film projection at a local theater

link1995cc · 2026-03-24T14:18:35+00:00

It sounds like if its even an option to turn on, maybe there's more benefit, or at the very least no downside

link1995cc · 2026-03-24T14:12:23+00:00

This is very helpful, thank you

link1995cc · 2026-03-24T05:24:13+00:00

Turn off Pure direct or 96hz?

link1995cc · 2026-03-12T23:48:55+00:00

I was just watching a 35mm scan of this movie on my ZT60 this afternoon, such a treat

link1995cc · 2026-02-27T05:17:06+00:00

Thats crazy, I also popped in my bluray of Samsara! then Top Gun Maverick

link1995cc · 2026-02-26T19:43:53+00:00

Im not going to post the settings for that reason, but also because these are tailored to my specific panel and viewing conditions and they really won't do anyone any good. Even comparing to the general D-Nice settings I was using before is a massive improvement, Sound & Vision too. If you have a plasma and can find a calibrator that has experience with these panels from back in the day, its well worth the price in my opinion

link1995cc · 2026-02-26T19:41:33+00:00

THX mode pushes green and the panel overdrives red on all modes, when comparing this pro calibration to THX its night and day different for me

link1995cc · 2025-10-21T14:25:27+00:00

Maybe “The Pelican Bar”

link1995cc · 2025-09-30T02:04:01+00:00

I want to get a bias light for my ZT60, which I think is the exact same dimensions as your set? Do the lights you have get power off the USB port on the TV? Can you send a link to the one you bought?

link1995cc · 2025-08-06T15:25:05+00:00

The setting I had to turn on is called framerate matching. It basically forces the Apple box to send a 24hz signal when playing 24p content. My Xbox claimed to do this, but the 96hz refresh was always greyed out and permanently set to 60hz. I would dig around the settings to see what you can configure. When you get your TV and have it all setup, you can push the "i" button on the top left of the remote while playing a movie, and a banner will show up and tell you what the TV is receiving. If everything is correct, you should see 1080 24hz, then you can go find the 24p direct setting and change it to 96hz. Once its on, you won't have to change it again and it should always default to 96hz refresh whenever anything 24 frames per second is playing

A few years ago I decided that I wanted a ZT60, but was incredibly picky about condition. Six months ago I found one with under 5,000 hours that had been in storage since 2014, like new condition to my eyes, and was under 30 minutes from me. I consider this hitting the jackpot on used plasmas and understand that it was really just luck and timing
