At just $1849, the 42-inch 42PF5421 offers 1366 x 768 native resolution, 800:1 contrast ratio, 550cd/m2 brightness, dual HDMI ports, and a PC-input (via HDMI). Here’s the verdict:

To figure out how worthwhile considering this TV is, you need to ask yourself these two questions: 1) do you need a digital tuner and 2) do you consider standard definition performance to be at least as important as HD performance. If the answer to either of these questions is yes, than reluctantly we should probably direct your attention elsewhere. If you could answer no to both, however, the 42PF5421 is an absolute bargain that you ignore at your peril
