perfectly smooth yet razor sharp.

optimizing picture quality by measuring and analyzing
the incoming signal to automatically adjust picture quality
settings. Active Control with Light Sensor uses a sensor to
adjust the picture brightness depending on the room light
conditions.

to fixed colors or various shades of white. In standby
mode, the lights can be operated to any color and create
a unique ambiance in the room.

side of the TV, and access the multimedia files stored on
the card. The USB connector allows access to multimedia
files of most USB-sticks and most digital cameras (USB

HDMI input
HDMI makes an uncompressed digital RGB connection
from the source to the screen. By eliminating conversion
to an analog signal, it delivers an unblemished image. The
non-degraded signal reduces flicker and leads to a clearer
picture. HDMI intelligently communicates the highest
output resolution with the source device. The HDMI input
is fully backward compatible with DVI sources but
includes digital audio. HDMI uses HDCP copy protection.
