The Hitachi A Series combines its compact design with advanced technology. With an integrated analogue TV tuner this HD Ready TV is the perfect addition to any small to medium sized room.
A high resolution of 1280 x 1080 pixels will display all images with superb clarity and definition, and ensures you get the most out of your viewing experience.
Hitachi's Picture Master Full HD graphics engine works behind the scenes to produce dazzling HD images. Three advanced techniques are employed: colour, contrast, and clarity controls. Every picture is analyzed frame by frame and optimised resulting in whiter whites and smoother, more balanced blacks. After the Picture Master Full HD engine has chosen the image's colours — the Hitachi Colour gamut is wider than the HDTV specification — Hitachi's exclusive MBP (Multi-Band Pass) Filter adds greater depth and contrast. Hue, saturation and brightness are all managed as well to prevent images from "whiting" or "blacking" out; and by reducing MPEG block noise from DVD movies, MPEG noise reduction generates smoother images, enhancing the quality of the DVD viewing experience.
By lighting screen lines alternately, Hitachi 1080 HD ALiS panels significantly reduce the wear on screen phosphors, thus achieving an average panel life of 60,000 hours. To put that in perspective, if you watched this plasma TV for 5 hours every day, you'd still be watching in 30 years.
