According to Sony: “Improvements to this year’s 3D models include panel drive enhancements that deliver quicker response time helping to reduce crosstalk, 5:5 pull down for a more realistic cinematic movie experience, built-in 3D emitters on all 3D models.” In addition, Sony 3D TVs can display 3D images taken from the new Sony Cyber-shot cameras.
The higher end 3D TVs, including the HX929 series, the HX820 series, the HX729 series utilize a dual-chip image processing-X-Reality Pro that adjusts signal patterns by analyzing and comparing content to an enormous library of film and video so that it optimizes high definition content, compressed HD signals, standard definition, and other sources.

This was some fantastic information. I work at DISH Network so I know about the programming and the equipment/receivers and that kind of thing, but they don’t do TV’s so I’ve been a bit out of the loop…I bought a new TV three years ago and since then haven’t been really paying much attention to what the new technology was or the new manufactures. The field seems to have just really exploded since my last purchase. I finished out my basement though and am in need of a new TV for the man-cave so of course I need the newest thing out. I get all my programming through DISH as well and with that many HD channels I want to make sure I have a TV that can give me the same type of pure, sharp picture that I’ve gotten so used to. This will definitely help me make my decision, and thanks!
