1920 x 1080 Panel Resolution When it comes to high - definition TV the pinnacle of performance is achieved by
using 1920 x 1080 display panels. And BRAVIA V - Series televisions have them. Full HD 1920 x 1080 panel
resolution with over 2 million pixels (more than twice that of 720p HDTV) is exactly what you need to reproduce the
1080p content that can be delivered by our cutting edge 1080p Blu - ray disc™player. And working with BRAVIA
Engine™standard definition is upconverted to 1080p for a picture so real it’s like you’re actually there.
Advanced Contrast Enhancer (ACE) Function Sony’s Advanced Contrast Enhancer (ACE) builds on our excellent
on - contrast ratio performance. A Dynamic Contrast Ratio of up to 7000:1 is achieved by using real - time image
processing to adjust the contrast along with optimizing backlight levels. But rather than focus on the "numbers",
Sony focuses on actual picture performance avoiding exaggerated blacks where detail can be lost. ACE translates
to blacker blacks in darker scenes, as well as better shadow detail in other scenes for a difference that you can see.

Full HD 1080 There are a lot of ways to define high - definition but BRAVIA Full HD means you’re getting the best
resolution that high - definition has to offer consumers. With Sony BRAVIA HDTVs, Full HD 1080 means 1920 x 1080
pixels and 1080p video inputs. Your lifestyle demands the best in high - definition and with Sony Full HD 1080
products you get it.
BRAVIA Engine™Full Digital Video Processor BRAVIA ® V - Series LCD televisions use Sony's BRAVIA Engine™
full digital video processor for crisp and clear images. Several special picture enhancement technologies are
integrated into the processor to create better gradations and details, enhance contrast, dynamically improve color,
and reduce image flicker.
Live Color Creation System Decades of television know how allow us to realize that an LCD TV is more than just
the panel; it’s actually a system. Uncompromised picture quality starts with combining carefully chosen
components and circuits to optimize system quality, among these are the color creation and processing functions.
That ’s what Live Color Creation is all about. It starts with the BRAVIA Engine™video processing system, which
enhances primary colors and corrects half - tone colors for natural overall color. Next, a WCG - CCFL backlight using
Sony’s phosphor formula delivers a specific spectrum of light designed to work with our specially formulated color
filters. The combination of these three components creates deep, deep reds and blues and colors that draw you
right into the picture itself.
HDMI™and PC Connectivity Designed for maximum versatility, Sony’ s BRAVIA V - Series LCD TVs are equipped
with a comprehensive range of input interfaces. The HDMI (High - Definition Multimedia Interface) is the first
industry - supported, uncompressed, all - digital audio/video interface. HDMI technology supports enhanced or High
Definition video, together with multi - channel digital audio to provide matchless image and sound reproduction.
BRAVIA V - Series TVs include (2) HDMI 1080/60p inputs. The PC input (HD - 15 - pin) offers easy connection to your PC,
allowing you to use your high resolution BRAVIA V - Series Digital TV as a computer monitor.
