brand. 24p compatibility means that films flow smoothly and exactly as the director intended. Live Colour gives optimal colour in all conditions whilst the 8000:1 dynamic contrast ratio creates deep blacks and real depth of image. In addition to this great quality screen, the Sony KDL19S5700 also features Scene Select. This lets you select a preset setting to give the best picture quality for any given program type or room environment. Although small, the sound quality is surprisingly good. Dolby Digital processing and a digital amp combine to give a clear and precise sound. For enhanced dialogue, a special setting makes voices sound much clearer. Steady Sound is a brilliant feature that equalises the level of sound from program to commercial, making adverts much less intrusive. In terms of connections, the KDL19S5700 has everything you need to be a flexible portable that can easily work between different rooms and systems. Twin HDMI sockets are matched by SCARTs and there's also a PC input, component and optical digital out. Finally, a USB input lets you connect media devices and view photos or video through your TV. What really makes this Sony portable stand out is how they've put some real thought into the styling. As many portables are literally carried from room to room, or even house to house, the KDL-19S5700 is easy to pick up, light and very easy to place on the shallowest of surfaces. Another welcome feature is the front-mounted digital clock. When combined with the timer function, this makes it perfect for use in a kitchen or bedroom. Finished in white, the KDL-S5700 looks very sexy and has the same timeless appeal of the Sony Digicube alarm clocks of the eighties that still look good today! For a portable TV that takes its function seriously, the Sony KDL-19S5700 takes some beating. (Description excerpted from: Richer Sounds)
