Full HD 1080p
 
It’s a high definition world and the best high definition resolution this brave new world 
offers is 1080p; that’s why Sony has more Full HD 1080p HDTVs than ever before. Full HD 1080p means 
our connections accept 1080p signals and the display will render that signal in Full HD 1080p. The 
flexibility of native 1920 x 1080 displays allows any high definition content to be viewed without the 
need to downconvert images to the native resolution of the display. Take full advantage of Blu-ray 
Disc™  players and PlayStation®3 systems that can deliver1080p content.
DMe
 
Sony’s Digital Media Extender (DMe ) offers a digital connection path for optional modules 
like the BRAVIA Internet Video Link, as well as other modules you can add in the future. Innovative 
DMe expansion capabilities integrate into the award-winning XMB™  user interface making HDTVs a 
powerful entertainment platform that not only meets current needs, but expands to meet 
tomorrow’s needs as well.
Motionflow™  120Hz Technology
 
Motionflow 120Hz technology doubles the number of existing 
frames by calculating in real time and inserting 60 entirely new frames between the original 60 
frames. It uses a special Sony-developed algorithm that detects specific objects, as well as the 
movement of the overall scene and intelligently applies the right amount of enhancement. There’s 
more to the story. Unlike some other high frame rate technologies, Motionflow also includes Sony’s 
unique Image Blur Reduction algorithm, which reduces blur from the original source image 
captured by a camera before applying motion enhancement technology. There are many forms of 
high frame rate technology in the market today, but only Motionflow 120Hz technology uses special 
Sony algorithms designed to intelligently detect and apply the right amount of enhancement to 
reduce judder and deliver a smoother, sharper picture with more natural motion of the original film.
