Sony has announced the European launch of its new upscaling DVD player, the
DVP-NS708H. Along with the ability to upconvert standard DVD's to 1080p, the DVP-NS708H offers features such as HDMI output, DivX
playback and support for BRAVIA Sync.
A
perfect complement to your BRAVIA LCD television or any HD Ready TV, the DVP-NS708H upscales Standard Definition DVDs to 1080p for
sublime, detail-packed pictures. The highest resolution format your HD TV can display, 1080p presents 1920x1080 Full HD images with
progressive scanning. This guarantees a richer, more cinematic viewing experience, especially at larger TV screen sizes.
It's
also a great way to get even more enjoyment from your precious digital photo collection. JPEG images burned onto CD or DVD from your
Cyber-shot or α digital SLR camera can be enjoyed on a connected BRAVIA television with breathtaking HD quality. If your BRAVIA TV
supports PhotoTV HD, still images are optimised further for the ultimate photo viewing experience.
