Stepping from analog into the world of high definition has never been easier. Not only do the Platinum Series projection TVs deliver all the features of the analog Silver and Gold Series, but also they offer high definition upgradeability at an affordable price.This is amazing when you consider that you will have features such as DPM3 (third-generation DiamondDigital Pixel Multiplier). It enables the TV's precision circuitry and optics to display standard TV programming with finer detail and smoother, more natural texture. Plus, two separate progressive scan (480p)/ interlaced (480i) component video inputs allow you to access the highest possible performance from a DVD player. MicroFine Phosphor CRTs employ fine-grain phosphors for a 20 percent smaller spot size, resulting in sharper, clearer images. Even video content with bright colors and fast action is easily compensated for and displayed with a new level of clarity with a help of Motion-Adaptive 3D-Y/C Comb Filters. High-Speed Velocity Scan Modulation feature has the speed and precision it takes to deliver crisp edge detail even at hyper fast scan rates of 480p and 1080i. Five Picture Format can fill the TV's entire 16: 9 screen with standard (4: 3) and ultra-widescreen (2.35: 1) anamorphic images, eliminating letterbox "bars". Mitsubishi's Film Mode detects jittering frames and applies motion adaptive technology to stabilize the picture. The result is a smoother, more continuous appearance to video that originated from film.
