  • Dynamic contrast (30,000:1)

  • BRAVIA Engine™ 2 fully digital video processor
    The BRAVIA Engine 2 fully digital video processor uses a collection of unique Sony technologies to significantly reduce noise, enhance overall image detail, and optimize contrast so every scene produces sharp, vibrant, life-like images and color

  • HD Component x 2 (1080/60i capable)
    Two YPbPr Component inputs (1080/60i capable) provide added HD-capable connectivity, and a PC input3 (HD-15 pin) offers the added versatility to use your HDTV as a computer monitor
  • BRAVIA® Link compatibility

  • BRAVIA® Sync capable

  • 24p True Cinema™
    24p True Cinema support provides a direct connection to 24p video sources, avoiding conversions and allowing users to enjoy films at their intended 24 fps (frames per second) cinematic picture quality when using a 24p-capable output device, such as a Blu-ray Disc™ player or Sony® PLAYSTATION®3 entertainment system
  • Favorites Menu
    The Favorites Menu function makes it easy to quickly access your favorite channels and video inputs
  • Energy Star® 3.0 Certified

BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

I use it mainly for watching movies and tv shows. The different settings for viewing movies and shows are awesome. However, when i do watch movies with dvd player, the screen automatically adjusts to light and dark. I haven't figured out how to adjust it.
