Amazon.com Product Description
With its stunning, cutting edge styling and equally stunning high-definition image, Samsung's HL-P5085W is a sight to behold. The DLP projection set offers a broad, 50-inch screen in a 16:9 aspect ratio and a unique pedestal mount whose lightweight design and slim stature lets it fit where other stands won't. But the HL-P5085W offers more than just quantity of screen: it's also engineered for quality.

The secret to this DLP (Digital Light Processing) projection set's quality is its Emmy-winning technology from Texas Instruments. Samsung has combined its proprietary Cinema Smooth Gen 4 HD light engine and advanced optic enhancements with a single, .8-inch Digital Micromirror Device (DMD) capable of generating high-definition video images with film-like resolution, deep blacks, and robust colors. Samsung's Cinema Smooth light engine enhances brightness while ensuring an astonishing 2,500:1 contrast ratio.

Texas Instruments' DMD panel is immune to the factors that can cause other displays to deteriorate with use, imparting a longer life expectancy than that of cathode ray tube (CRT) sets, plasma display panels, and liquid crystal display systems (LCD, LCoS, HTPS). A host of advanced digital interfaces and video inputs make non-issues of connectivity challenges and future proofing.

The HL-P5085W's automatic digital-format conversion system converts any input (whether DTV, analog TV, or XGA computer sources at 1080i, 720p, 480p, or 480i) to a progressive, 16:9 widescreen image with a 1,280 x 720 pixel count. A 3D Y/C digital comb filter dramatically reduces image-edge artifacts while improving transition detail, and the set's HD ultra-fine-pitch (.155 mm) screen further clarifies images, especially when you're viewing high-resolution sources like DVD and HDTV.

Samsung's Cinema Smooth Film Mode 3:2 Pull Down correction circuitry addresses digital distortion in 480i (interlaced) video signals generated from 24 frames-per-second film. Finally, Samsung DNIe video enhancer (Digital Natural Image engine) works with all analog NTSC and wideband video signals for improvements in contrast, white level, and picture detail, incorporating digital noise reduction to improve lower-quality sources.

The set offers digital-video inputs in 2 formats. A DVI-HDTV interface with HDCP copy protection permits all-digital rendering of video without the losses associated with an analog interface, and an HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) jack channels both digital audio and video to simplify connections with newer DTV set-top boxes and DVD players by reducing hookups to just a single cable and plug.

Other inputs include dual HDTV component-video inputs (480i, 480p, 720p, and 1080i) for high-definition satellite receivers, HDTV tuners, and HD cable boxes with component video outputs (Y, Pb, Pr); 3 each composite- and S-video inputs; and 2 RF coaxial inputs for antennas or older VCRs or cable boxes. An audio/video output permits hookup with an external device such as a surround-sound receiver.

A 15-watts-per-channel (x2) audio system with a pair of 2-way speakers comes with built-in SRS TruSurround XT, which simulates compelling surround sound through any stereo playback system, including headphones and the TV's speakers.

Last but far from least, onboard 2-tuner PIP with side-by-side split-screen viewing grants convenient simultaneous viewing of 2 TV programs, while a supplied universal remote control permits control of the TV, a DVD player, a VCR, and a tuner/surround receiver.

1 out of 5 stars Dont waste your money..........2006-11-08

This sounded too good to be true and BAM! It is. We used it (for a grand total of 3 times) to dump our cards at a wedding. So far the prongs have bent 2x and the harddrive needed to be reformatted once. And since this thing actaully failed at a wedding - wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Better off buying more cards.

This sounds like a good product, but it is not and the company is bad about their customer service. Used the photobank to store all my racing photos while covering a NASCAR race, worked well. Downloaded the images right there and kept on shooting. Went home to download to the computer, everything went fine. Only when I was finished downloading to the CPU the thing still said there were images on the HD. So I went into the HD through My computer and cleared them off, thinking that would clear it off. Nope, it still said there were images there. Went a step further and formated the thing. Did that fix it. Nope, all it did was remove if from this earth. DOS doesn't even see it. The only way it is seen by the computer is if the hard cover is taken off and then DOS will read it. But it will not fix it back to the FAT32 format. There is a driver for it on their website but it is for the card reader side of it not the HD.Bad product, Buyer be ware....
