Review

The PD5010D's performance is pretty impressive when compared with that of other 50-inch plasmas on the market, but (as I mentioned earlier) the technology has its limitations. The PD5010D's black-level capability isn't bad, but it's far from optimum and not nearly as good as that of CRT-based monitors. Whether it's displaying anamorphic DVDs or even HDTV sources, the PD5010D falls apart in dimly lit scenes. In dark scenes, there's little or no shadow detail and noticeable low-level noise. In all fairness to Marantz, all of the 50-inch plasmas I've seen exhibit these problems. Looking on the bright side, well-lit scenes look really good, particularly those from high-def sources.
