specified in the
HDTV standard
(ITU-R. BT709), so
images are natural­looking and faithful

source.

Digital Colour Reality for Accurate Reproduction of the
Ambience in Movies

In Super Cinema mode, Digital Colour Reality boosts precision in the
digital control of colour and brightness video data by a factor of four (white
chromaticity fluctuation of less than 0.003). By continuously adjusting the
white balance and performing gamma correction as scenes change, this
technology accurately expresses the warmth of light, and reproduces
delicate shading.

Faithfully expresses subtle colour
differences in bright and shaded areas.

Reproduces the full range of colours specified
in HDTV broadcast standards.
