When you think about slim LCD HDTVs, think BRAVIA Z-Series. Slim black or silver bezels and thin profiles accent the elegant yet functional design, with performance that’s all Sony. 10-bit processing and 10-bit displays, x.v.Color technology and Deep Color render a wide color gamut and smooth color transitions. Motionflow 120Hz and 24p True Cinema provide smoother picture performance with unprocessed 24p film reproduction. Z-Series HDTVs include Sony’s innovative DMex technology which offers an expandable platform that “future-proofs” Sony HDTVs, ensuring they connect seamlessly not only with current Sony camcorders, computers, and digital cameras, but also to devices that haven’t even been invented yet. HDMI-CEC compatibility means you can control everything from one remote. They are DLNA compliant and offer Sony’s unique PhotoTV HD.

The Sony KDL40Z4100/B 40″ Bravia Z Series LCD HDTV brings you top of the line features like the DMex. The DMex™ functionality expands your HDTV’s capabilities by letting you connect optional BRAVIA® Link modules, including the BRAVIA® Internet Video Link, BRAVIA® DVD Link, BRAVIA® Wireless Link, and BRAVIA® Input Link (all sold separately).
BRAVIA Engine™ fully digital video processor uses a collection of unique Sony® algorithms to significantly reduce noise, enhance overall image detail, and optimize contrast so every scene produces sharp, vibrant, life-like images.

Motionflow 120Hz technology doubles the number of existing frames by calculating in real time and inserting 60 entirely new frames between the original 60 frames. It uses a special Sony-developed algorithm that detects specific objects, as well as the movement of the overall scene and intelligently applies the right amount of enhancement. There`s more to the story. Unlike some other high frame rate technologies, Motionflow also includes Sony`s unique Image Blur Reduction algorithm, which reduces blur from the original source image captured by a camera before applying motion enhancement technology.

Also, it’s very future-proof with lots of (4) HDMI inputs and a LAN connection and USB. I’ve had the KDL 40Z4100 Bravia TV for about 2 weeks now and the ranking of picture quality goes as follows: Blu Ray (late release)movies, Digital HD television broadcast or HD digital cable, standard def (480 or 720) movies from a good quality “upscaling” player, and finally – standard def TV broadcast. The 120hz motion control and 24p pull-down on sonys kdl 40z4100 b & s work well on older standard def movies

The connection panel on the back provides two HDMI 1.3 compatible inputs, (one has matching stereo Audio Ins), two Component (YPbPr) with matching stereo Audio Ins, two Composite (with Audio), one VGA (15 pin D-Sub) with a stereo Audio In mini-plug, and an S-Video. In addition, an SPDIF (optical) digital Audio Out is provided next to L/R Stereo Outs.
The one RF connector can take either an antenna or a cable signal and links to the internal NTSC/ATSC/QAM tuners. Since the tuner system is Clear QAM compatible, you can attach your cable TV signal directly into the RF connector and tune in unscrambled cable stations. There is no CableCARD slot.

Apart from their stunning brushed metal finish, or piano black gloss, and over all excellent design, the Sony Z / Z 4100 series is packed with great features which offer the very best in HD and overall image quality. The LCD screen in both the KDL-40Z4100 and KDL-46Z4100 has the highest Full HD resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels and is 10-bit along with 10-bit processing for improved color reproduction. Sony’s new Bravia Engine 2 delivers the very best image enhancement technology, reducing noise, enhancing colors and much more. Also featured is Motionflow 120Hz technology which doubles the number of image frames to create a more true, and judder free smooth flowing image, while retaining sharpness and reducing motion blur.

Review By Vanns
Movies and many prime time TV programs are captured at 24 frames per second (24p). Sony’s Blu-ray Disc players wisely take advantage of this by including 24p output capability allowing a compatible connection with BRAVIA HDTVs that have this capability. The benefit? You can watch movies in natural, cinematic motion, the way they are seen at the cinema. Every single frame of the movie can now be seen without using additional video processing that converts film-based images to video reproduction. Additionally, 24p True Cinema input capability can be used along with Motionflow 120Hz technology for outstanding fluid motion beyond what you would typically see at the cinema. Once you experience 24p video it will be hard to view video without it.
