BRAVIA Engine™ PRO Full Digital Video Processor

Presenting the next evolution of the BRAVIA Engine

™ ...BRAVIA Engine™ PRO.
Sony improved on the great benefits of the BRAVIA Engine™ by adding a picture quality enhancement circuit called Digital Reality
Creation Multi-function v2.5. DRC-MFv2.5 now has the added ability to process interlace, progressive and even HD video signals and
because it has increased processing power over previous DRC-MF circuits, it can do its processing and output them to 1080p with the
least amount of conversions avoiding degradation. (Native 1080p input signals are not processed through DRC-MFv2.5.) Add to this
the crisp details, outstanding contrast, eye popping colors, and dramatically fine detail reproduction that DRC-MF circuitry is known
for. And the best part of all is that DRC-MFv2.5 is user adjustable according to the video source. All of this helps define the reason why
people want Sony TVs to begin with - unparalleled picture quality.

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. Full HD 1080 means native 1920 x 1080 pixels and 1080p video inputs. Your lifestyle demands the best
in high-definition and with BRAVIA Full HD 1080 products you get it.

1920 x 1080 Panel Resolution

When it comes to high

-definition TV the pinnacle of performance is achieved by using native 1920 x
1080 progressive display panels. 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™ PRO everything from standard definition and high definition is upconverted to 1080p for a picture so
real it’s like you’

re actually there.

x.v.Color

™ Bravia HDTV’s performance have now advanced to the point that the color range can be limited due to limitations in the

original video source, rather than the TV. Thanks to the adoption of a newly approved international color standard, xvYCC, which
Sony participated in creating, the color space has been greatly expanded. 1.8 times as many natural colors as existing HDTV signals
will now be faithfully reproduced. x.v.Color™ is the name Sony has chosen to promote video products that include xvYCC capability.
Sony video products such as select Handycam® camcorder models and PlayStation® 3 video gaming consoles that include this
capability along with select BRAVIA models are at the core of a complete HD solution designed to offer consumers the advantage
from source to display. Colors can now be even more accurately reproduced and appear natural as they are in the natural world.

10-bit Processing and 10-bit Display While it’s great to state that a TV is capable of creating billions of colors it’s a whole lot

better when you have a display that can actually display them. That’s the logic behind Sony’s 10-bit processor and 10-bit display.
Sony follows 10-bit processing with a true 10-bit panel, allowing 64 times the levels of expression. This means that you will see
smoother transitions from color to color and subtle color changes faithfully reproduced versus 8-bit panels.

Motionflow

™ 120Hz High Frame Rate Technology Achieving smooth, natural motion reproduction starts with the right

performance characteristics such as the ultra fast panel response times our BRAVIA

® HD LCD TVs have. Taking motion performance to

the next level requires innovation and expertise. Enter Sony

’s Motionflow™ High Frame Rate technology. Motionflow doubles the
amount of frames from 60fps to 120fps and does it the right way by using real-time calculation of every single frame of video to create
entire new frames of information. The results are spectacular and unlock a new level of motion reproduction. Motion performance is
smooth and natural; movies are free of “

judder

”.

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 part of a system. Exceptional picture quality starts with combining carefully chosen components and circuits along with
spending hundreds of hours analyzing and adjusting them for optimal picture quality. Among these circuits are the color creation and
processing functons. That

’s what Live Color Creation is all about. It starts with the BRAVIA Engine™ PRO video processing system, which

enhances primary colors and corrects half-tone colors for natural overall color.
