Features
- WorldWide NTSC/PAL/SECAM Color System
- WorldWide NTSC, PAL BG, PAL I, Secam BG, DK/ PAL DK TV tuners
- The magic behind those crystal clear images
- This technology is made up of a Motion Optimizer, a Contrast Enhancer, a Color Optimizer, and a Detail Enhancer to ensure that all the work going into a clear image keeps humming along — only quietly, thanks to the engine's noise reduction. The new 18-bit processing capability of DNIe and the Natural True Color technology allows you to enjoy "as is" color on the 50A550. From the faint sunlight of dawn to the extreme spotlights of a fashion show, your plasma provides vivid, life-like images that rival reality. ACE Silhouette editor ensures clear images without contour lines (something that old TV of yours loved. THAT's why it's next in line at the e-Waste recycling
event.)
Don't sweat the burn-in
- Don't worry about your PS50A550's panel fatigue — this baby's got a 100,000-hour panel life, so that hyPSotic true-to-life picture isn't fading any time soon. Anti-burn-in technology uses auto pixel shift, a signal pattern processing function, and all-white screens to ensure that no images (like that dratted ESPS logo) are burned into your plasma panel
- Finely tuned picture
- When it comes to displaying pictures how you want to see them, the PS50A550 gets the job done. Built-in analog tuners allow you to connect with an RF signal cable directly to the set and watch "regular" standard TV right out of the box, or use the integrated ATSC tuner to pick up high definition programs broadcast over the air. Picture-in-Picture (PIP) gives you convenient simultaneous viewing of TV and video or PC sources. At the same time, the Ultra FilterBright Plus Anti Glare Filter enhances contrast ratio in bright rooms even in the daytime and improves overall brightness for clearer image details.
It's all about connections these days
- The PS50A550 includes three HDMI-CEC ver. 1.3 connections which allow for the transmission of both video and audio digital signals through a single cable for higher quality and fewer wires. The HDMI connections are also CEC-compliant, which means one remote can control all the CEC devices with one-touch operation. You can connect your DVD and DTV sources with two component video (Y/Pb/Pr) inputs. You also get S-Video and composite video inputs, along with optical digital audio outputs for transferring high-quality sound. What's more, the PS50A550 can also function as a PC monitor thanks to PC inputs.
- Future-ready means 3D
- Yes, your PS50550 is 3D-ready. Groundbreaking 3D technology gives you the benefits of both a flat-panel set and 3D movie viewing and gaming. How cool is that? Imagine playing your favorite video game on a 50" screen that has 3D capabilities. Now that's what I call rivaling reality.
- Cinematic sound, too
- As you now know, with the PS50A550, true theater quality sound is part of the experience. SRS TruSurround XT delivers an amazing simulated effect using TruBass virtual woofer effect, Dialog Clarity, and WOW stereo enhancement. The set's built-in 2-way speaker system is powered by the built-in 10-watt per channel audio amplifier and sounds terrific.
