HD1080p (1920x1080)
HD 1080p offers you very high resolution to generate its picture. The ‘p’ stands for ‘progressive scan’, which scans all the lines at once to add stability & smoothness to fast-moving images. This makes 1080p TVs excellent for sport broadcast & games.
Integrated Digital Tuner / Freeview
Having an integrated Digital Freeview Tuner means that your TV has a built in receiver that will give you access to many more channels without the need to have any additional hardware, such as a Freeview box. In 2007, the government began switching UK broadcasting to digital, so if your TV doesn't have an integrated digital tuner feature you won't be able to view any channel without buying the additional hardware.
BRAVIA Engine 2
You can’t have too much of a good thing, so we designed BRAVIA ENGINE 2. By using our most innovative technologies like intelligent noise reduction and Advanced Contrast Enhancer, BRAVIA ENGINE 2 builds on the power of the acclaimed BRAVIA ENGINE and adds four new image processing stages. What's more, BRAVIA ENGINE 2 incorporates full digital signal processing, which means that it can enhance many different signals.
Dynamic Contrast
Contrast ratio is improved and all shades between the brightest white and the darkest blacks are maintained, so the picture has more depth and detail. This is achieved as the backlight brightness adjusts according to the brightness of the scene. Sony's unique dynamic contrast system features ACE (advanced contrast enhancer) which ensures all of the subtle shades of grey are maintained. The Z4500 Series delivers a Dynamic Contrast Ratio of 80,000:1.
24P True Cinema
Movies are usually filmed at 24 frames per second (fps), and with 24p True Cinema, Movies are output in 24-fps as they should be, in the same sequence as the original film source for the same film-like motion that you could only enjoy in theatres before.
Motionflow +200Hz
Movies are usually filmed at 24 frames per second (fps), and with 24p True Cinema, Movies are output in 24-fps as they should be, in the same sequence as the original film source for the same film-like motion that you could only enjoy in theatres before.
Live Colour Creation
Live Colour Creation is a backlight system which produces a wider colour gamut, seen particularly with the red and green areas of the spectrum. So your TV picture will have more lifelike and natural colours with no smudging or dulling of the image.
X.V. Colour
X.V colour offers a colour palette of 100% of the colour spectrum giving more depth, detail and natural images and is closer to the colour spectrum seen by the human eye.
HDMI Sockets
The Z4500 Series has 3 X HDMI Sockets – 2 at the rear of the set & one at the side.
Your HDMI socket provides a connection point on your TV that is able to deliver a high definition picture. Quite simply, the more HDMI sockets that you have on your BRAVIA LCD TV, the more components you are able to link up to for HD picture quality, for instance, a Blu-ray player, your Handycam® and your gaming console. Having the socket located in the side of the TV means that you no longer have to get into awkward positions or move the unit in order to gain access to the connection point, great if you’re viewing your photos on your TV via your digital camera.

XrossMediaBar (XMB)
XMB (XrossMediaBar) is Sony’s original graphic user interface that allows for simple operation of various media and content, as seen on the PLAYSTATION®3. Users can navigate through the different types of media by zapping across icons that are aligned horizontally. After selecting the medium, a list of its content appears as thumbnails vertically.
The main benefit of the XMB is that it alleviates the need to look at the remote control while searching and selecting content. With an increasing number of media and content, simple navigation has become a challenge, especially with a remote control. The XMB gives access to a wide array of content with only a few buttons.

USB Viewer
Enjoy digital photos on the big screen. With the USB Photo Viewer, the user can view photos instantaneously by connecting a digital still camera via USB and selecting “Photo” from the XMB menu. Thumbnails of the photos stored in the digital still camera will appear on the screen, from which the user can choose to view full screen or as a slideshow.
You can also select your favourite photo as a standby screen just pressing favourite button during thumbnails display, full-screen view and slideshow. Share your fun memories with family and friends on BRAVIA.
