Enjoy the crisp definition and bright imagery of Samsung's Cinema Smooth(TM) 1080p Light Engine; a phenomenal 10,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio delivers the full range of vivid colors, bright whites, deep blacks and nuanced tones. SRS TruSurround XT(TM) audio fills the room with clear, robust sound. Fast, 16 micro-second switching speed virtually eliminates motion blur; Game Mode optimizes performance so gamers will marvel at the lifelike action. Full digital connectivity with 3 HDMI ports allows digital connectivity to Cable/Satellite boxes Blu-ray players, AV receivers, and more.

Integrated HDTV Tuner with the addition of a suitable UHF/VHF antenna delivers the world of free off-air DTV and HDTV local broadcast channels. An additional QAM tuner decodes unscrambled digital cable signals.

Cinema Smooth(TM) Light Engine
Samsung is the worldwide leader in creating light engines that harness DLP HDTV technology from Texas Instruments. Samsung`s Cinema Smooth light engine brings together the right optics, electronic circuitry and replaceable light source to create a brilliant picture that`s more lifelike and much closer to film. Now in its sixth year of evolution, Samsung`s Cinema Smooth light engine delivers crisp, 1080p High Definition resolution with high contrast and brightness, defined edges and sharp detail.

Cinema Smooth 1080p Light Engine
Samsung`s Cinema Smooth 1080p light engine is the culmination of years of industry leading research and development. It releases the maximum power of the new generation of DMD microdisplays for the most film-like picture. It creates an image with no visible pixel structure and accurate shading and better low-light detail.

Next Generation DLP Chips from Texas Instruments
Samsung employs a Texas Instruments DLP chip that is comprised of millions of microscopic mirrors. The DLP chip is faster than any other HDTV technology, with the mirrors switching on & off 15,000 times a second to deliver a razor-sharp picture for fast moving images. When combined with Samsung`s new Cinema Smooth light engine, the result is a crisp, bright picture with deep, rich colors that`s closer to film.

Faster 5 Segment Color Wheel for High Contrast and Brightness
Samsung`s 2.2 color wheel spins at 14,400 rpm for smooth fast-motion video, and has five color segments for more accurate colors. Comprised of five colors, Red, Green, and Blue, plus Cyan and Yellow, it achieves film-like transitions and eliminates the pixel breakup found in slower color wheel designs and slower-switching LCD microdisplays. The Cinema Smooth(TM) light engine uses a whisper quiet air bearing design.

Samsung`s DNIe(TM) - Digital Natural Image Engine
Samsung`s exclusive Digital Natural Image engine makes the sharpest and clearest images possible, regardless of the profile of input signals. Five image processors and a six-times density enhancer ensure the best picture from any source. Now in its sixth generation (since 2002), DNIe guarantees the truest colors and highest contrast, while virtually eliminating digital artifacts.

My Color Control
You can get the pink tones, the green of the grass and the blue of the sky just the way you like, without affecting the other colors on the screen. The three major colors can be adjusted to perfectly fit your taste. Self expression meets display perfection.

Cinema Mode
Samsung`s Cinema Mode lets you see colors the way the director intended, by matching them more closely to production standards. This creates more accurate colors and natural skin tones when viewing Hollywood movies on your TV—the perfect setting when enjoying movies with the lights off.

Cinema Smooth(TM) Film Mode 3:2 Pull Down
Powered by Samsung`s Cinema Smooth technology, 3:2 Pull Down corrects for the artificial frames created when films are converted to DVDs. The result is a clearer image without the subtle motion artifacts caused by 24-to-30 frames per second video conversion.

Picture Format Size Adjustment
Enjoy all your 4:3 aspect-ratio programming in smooth, wide-screen without black bars. Four pre-set aspect ratio modes—Normal, Wide, Zoom 1 and Zoom 2—stretch your image to fill the screen naturally.

Energy Efficient
Samsung DLP TVs are more energy efficient than many flat panel TVs, resulting in significant utility savings over the life of the TV.

Color Temperature Adjustments
Cool1, Cool2, Normal, Warm1, Warm2 selectable with on-screen display.

3D Comb Filter dramatically reduces edge image artifacts while improving transition detail.

Previous Channel returns to the previously viewed channel at the push of a button.

Game Mode enhances dark areas, sharpens the picture, speeds up the image processing response and enhances the sounds of your games. Picture and sound quality optimized for the special needs of gaming systems at the touch of a button.

Closed Caption displays dialog that can be read along with encoded broadcast TV programs and pre-recorded videos.

Non Volatile Memory preserves audio, video and menu settings during power outages.

Auto Volume Leveler keeps audio volume consistent during channel changing to minimize static sound bursts.

Discrete IR Codes
This set is equipped with discrete IR codes for use with an optional macro/programmable remote (see owners manual for details).

Universal Remote Control permits control of the TV, DVD, VCR and a Tuner/Receiver.

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) addresses both pure digital audio and video performance and simplifies connections from the new generation set-top boxes, HD game consoles, HD Blu-ray(TM) and DVD players by reducing cable connections to one cable and plug.

DTV and DVD Compatible Connect your DVD and DTV sources with two smart component video (Y/Pb/Pr) inputs that accept 480p/720p/1080i/1080p signals.

PC
A Samsung HDTV using DLP technology can also function as a high-quality XGA PC monitor with 1080p compatibility.
