The new Hitachi UltraVision L42S503 42" 1080p LCD HDTV is the ultimate high definition HDTV. From the full HD 1080p, 120Hz picture quality to the convenience of 7 high definition inputs, UltraVision delivers superior Hitachi technology in one of the most energy efficient and slim televisions ever designed.

With a HDTV tuner for over the air DTV broadcasts and a QAM tuner for unscrambled cable channels, this HDTV meets the highest HDTV resolution. The 1920x1080 screen resolution gives you clearer details and smoother images.

The L42S503 model has 4 HDMI inputs for connecting your cable/satellite boxes, Blu-ray disc players, computers, digital camcorders, gaming systems, and more, and component connections for devices that don't use HDMI connectors. The TV also includes RGB input so you can hook your computer directly to the big screen. Hitachi has over 50 years of experience in fine tuning television pictures and the PicturePerfect processor produces an exceptionally sharp, detailed and noise-free image. The Hitachi game mode optimizes the picture for great game playing speed and a clear picture.

The most popular HDTV broadcasts deliver only 30fps. This HDTV displays 120fps by calculating new picture information to make images remarkably sharp and clear.

All of the UltraVision LCD TVs are energy efficient and ENERGY STAR qualified. This HDTV includes several modes that are programmed to save energy. Have you ever fallen asleep with the TV on? Hitachi's sleep timer can automatically turn off your TV after a selected time of up to 3 hours, saving energy and money.

This TV also comes with exceptional features to provide a relaxing experience. The UltraVision remote is preprogrammed to easily operate compatible cable or satellite tuners, DVD players, VCRs and A/V receivers. The lightweight, elegant design easily swivels to provide multiple viewing positions. The Hitachi antiglare screen eliminates reflections and the convenient headphone jack lets you listen to your TV without disturbing others.
