Mitsubishi WD73833 Television

Don’t let yourself be distracted by all the whatnots offered in place of real progress. The odds are, you don’t need a 108-inch flat panel TV on your 120-inch living room wall. What you do need, whether you realize it or not, is an HDTV with 120Hz image processing for quicker frame rate conversion and blazing fast pixel response times.

Films are shot at 24 frames per second and just about every movie disc you can buy is encoded at that speed. DVD, HD DVD, Blu-ray - all 24 frames per second. However, television programming runs at 30 frames per second and most TVs conform to that standard, and that’s where all the problem arise.

Fitting that 24-frame content onto a 30-frame screen isn’t a seamless process. You can’t divide 24 by 30 evenly — so video engineers fill in the gaps. Known as 3:2 pulldown, this conversion process spreads out 24 frames into 30 by placing one frame on the screen three times and the next one after that two times, and repeating this pattern again and again

But fret not, the Mitsubishi Diamond 833 Series offers 120Hz. 120Hz image processing shows 120 frames per second, allowing these TVs to reproduce unconverted, evenly extrapolated 24 fps movie, 30 fps television, and 60 fps special effects programming, without the stutter and other clutter of 3:2 pulldown.

For this set’s connectivity options, Mitsubishi’s Easy Connect simplifies set-up and day-to-day use. During set-up, it recognizes each input as it is plugged in, prompts the user to name it, enters it into the Device Menu, and only shows used inputs. ClearThought makes it easy to find the desired input, which is handy since this set comes loaded with a number of inputs.

It also provides four Simplay-enabled HDMI v1.3 inputs. HDMI 1.3 adds support for the new “xvYCC” high definition color standard, which removes current color space limitations and enables the display of any color the human eye can perceive. This set sports an additional three digital component video inputs as well. The front of this unit sports both an HDMI port and a component input for quicker, easier connection of the latest HD gaming devices.

With these advanced connection options, you won’t have to worry about compatibility with future components for quite a while. So hook it up, then sit back and relax, while Easy Connect gets everything squared away.

For this television’s performance, you will find it very satisfying. Mitsubishi is taking color to a new level by supporting x.v. Color, the new HD color standard, and by offering its exclusive new 6-Color Light Engine. x.v.Color enables 80% more color than standard HDTV.

Mitsubishi’s 6-Color Light Engine generates yellow, cyan, and magenta directly, rather than by mixing combinations of the standard red, green, and blue (RGB) to create them. This more efficient process allows the Diamond 833 Series televisions to display a wider range of colors — brighter colors and whiter whites.

Additional color features such as Color 4D Video Noise Reduction, PerfectColor and PerfecTint allow for additional advanced color processing and adjustment. PerfectColor is an exclusive Mitsubishi feature that gives you the ability to adjust the intensity of six separate colors independent of each other and separately for every input. Similarly, PerfecTint allows you to adjust the tint of six colors independently of each other and separately for every input.

Mitsubishi’s Tru1080p Processing maintains 1080p high definition signals as 1080p from beginning to end. All 1080p DVI-I, HDMI, IEEE 1394, and 1080p Broadcast signals are passed through with no down-conversions. The advancements of 1080p DLP technology for HDTV viewing deliver over 2 million pixels to you on-screen for a full and true 1920 x 1080 resolution. With Mitsubishi 1080p DLP HDTVs, you can experience the best that high definition has to offer today and be ready to enjoy all of the 1080p sources that are on the horizon.
