Sony 32D3000U HD LCD Television Review

Although high-definition TVs have been flying off the shelves recently, it is worthwhile noting that most of these people will still be watching mostly standard definition programmes on their shiny new TVs. Should you sit too close to a high-definition TV, all the imperfections inherent in compressed broadcast stations will be blown up on screen, destroying your viewing experience.

This is why it may be better to buy a smaller screen for standard definition viewing. The latest Sony Bravia KDL-32D3000 LCD TV fits the bill perfectly. In this article I'll highlight some of the good and bad points about this 32" high definition television.

Positives:


- In the past LCDs have been crippled by average blacks. Sony KDL-32D3000 defies this tradition in this respect: the blacks and grey gradation are some of the best I've ever seen on a HDTV of this size.

- Again, another shortcoming of LCDs is motion blurring. Sony KDL-32D3000 solves this problem by incorporating its Motion Flow technology, which I must admit functions very competently in maintaining detail in fast action scenes.

- For a TV of this size, I'm impressed that Sony has included rather good picture processing in terms of noise reduction and deinterlacing. This will make standard definition image even better.

Bad Points:


- Because of the Wide Color Gamut (WCG) implemented on the Sony KDL-32D3000, the colours could look slightly over-saturated. However, unless you're a videophile who strives colour accuracy, this should not bother you at all.

- If you want to get the best possible picture from the Sony KDL-32D3000 , you'll need to get into the service menu to adjust the greyscale.

- The price tag is high compared to other models of a similar specification.

In conclusion, the Sony KDL-32D3000 delivers a solid standard definition and high definition picture quality, though is priced at a premium. Only you yourself can decide whether it's worth it.
