The 60-inch Hitachi UltraVision 60VF820 is an impressive LCD rear-projection HDTV that combines advanced features, strong performance, and smart design. The black metallic finish looks very classy, and the front of the cabinet is free of inputs or controls. The entire unit is less than 20 inches in depth, with stereo speakers flanking the wide-format screen. Internal NTSC and ATSC tuners and a CableCARD slot reduce the need for additional set-top boxes.

Review By Tvsreview
The big news coming out of Hitachi this year is its launching of three new UltraVision LCoS (Liquid Crystal on Silicon) projection HDTV models, and seven new UltraVision 3LCD projection HDTV models. Hitachi is offering an innovative three-panel LCoS light engine that features the company’s proprietary Dual Focus Lens system, and a native resolution of 1920×1080 for exceptional high-definition images. According to Hitachi, their LCoS design utilizes an extremely thin liquid crystal layer that reduces the response time light-to-dark and dark-to-light transitions for sharper on-screen action.
