Key Technologies
SXRD™ Panels
SXRD technology is the latest display technology developed by the legendary television
engineers at Sony to meet and exceed the demands of a High Definition image at its full 1080 line resolution.
Digitally transmitted High Definition signals can contain over 2 million individual detail points that need to be
displayed accurately and rapidly. SXRD displays those 2 million detail points per SXRD panel accurately since the
3 SXRD panels actually contain enough pixels to fully display a 1080 line picture without interlacing it.
SXRD has the speed to create a smooth, film like image. The SXRD panels have a blistering 5ms response time
(total rise and fall time), which exceeds the demands of even the most rapidly moving High Definition images. And
SXRD creates highly accurate, natural colors because the 3-panel design displays all the colors, all the time.
Cinema Black Pro
The Advanced Iris function is a special Sony function designed to improve contrast expression
especially in darker scenes. The Advanced Iris function is enabled by using either one of two modes, Auto and
Manual. The Auto Mode has two settings designed to work best with video content such as movies that vary
between bright scenes and dark scenes. Auto 1 is for programs that have a wide range of brightness from scene to
scene. Auto 2 is for programs that have less variation between brightness levels from scene to scene.
