with the right performance characteristics such as the ultra fast panel response times our BRAVIA® HD LCD TVs
have. 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.

BRAVIA Engine™ EX Video Processing System
The BRAVIA Engine™ EX video processing system came about as
a result of Sony’s expertise and long heritage in bringing cutting-edge picture quality to consumer televisions. It
contains intelligent picture enhancement technology that reduces unwanted digital artifacts and delivers superb
clarity and detail along with vivid colors. Sony’s own Digital Reality Creation Multi-function v1.0 (DRC-MFv1)
processor replaces the original SD signal with its HD equivalent. The result of BRAVIA Engine EX processing? Picture
quality has texture and detail, deep and vibrant colors, along with excellent depth and contrast.

wide color reproduction using a combination of advanced chroma signal processing algorithms. A special wide
color gamut backlight (WCG-CCFL) is coupled with Sony’s Live Color Creation circuitry. The benefit is clear blues,

Xross Media Bar® (XMB™ ) On-Screen Menu System
Xross Media Bar is Sony’s Emmy Award winning on-
screen navigation that provides quick access to various set up functions and features. For instance selecting
different types of media is made fun and easy by scrolling horizontally across icons until you find the type of
media you are looking for. After selecting the media type, a list of its content appears as vertical thumbnails. Key
set up menus and features work the same way. The main benefit of the XMB™ interface is that users can navigate
through on-screen menus without taking their eyes off of their TV.

BRAVIA Theatre Sync™
BRAVIA® Theatre Sync™ reduces the hassle and time consuming job of powering up,
changing the signal routing, and adjusting other functions to the simple push of one button. All you need to do is to
connect BRAVIA® Theatre Sync™ capable products to each other via one HDMI cable. The rest is easy. For instance,
the One Push Play function activates by touching the play button on the remote and BRAVIA® Theatre Sync™ takes
over from there. The BRAVIA® Home Theatre System and TV turn on. The DVD input on the BRAVIA® Theatre system
and TV activates. The TV mutes. And finally the DVD plays. There are two other BRAVIA® Theatre Sync™ functions -
One-Push Theatre Settings, which provides optimal picture and sound settings for movies and One-Push System
Shut Down for turning off the entire home entertainment system.
