Exclusive Features

CineForm™ Industrial Design:
An elegantly sculptured black frame surrounds the high definition picture.

VirtualHD™1080p II:
When content from film is sent to your home it requires processing that can cause picture noise or distortion. VirtualHD™ technology reduces this noise to a minimum, recreating the smooth curves and high fidelity image of the original film source. An advanced technique, dynamic histogram processing, digitally maps the incoming signal to optimize on screen contrast, color and sharpness.

Quick Start Seamless HDTV Tuner:
Hitachi HDTV tuner technology brings viewers a unique blend of convenience and performance. Conventional HDTV tuners need extended start-up time to scan for channels and require switching between antenna inputs when selecting analog or digital programming. Hitachi HDTV tuner technology delivers the picture quickly with seamless access to all available channels.

Learning AV NET IV:
The advanced Learning AV NET system simplifies operation of your complete home theater with a single convenient interface. Learning AV NET makes the new UltraVision® television the command and control center of your entire home theater system.

Illuminated Roll & Click™ Remote:
Easily browse channels or adjust volume using the unique rolling wheels or quickly create or change favorite channels at the push of a button.

Day and Night Memory with Timer:
Separate Day and Night Memory settings deliver superior picture quality for any lighting condition. By simply pressing a button on the remote, or using the automatic timer, you can toggle between bright daytime settings and high fidelity nighttime settings for each source.
