All About Hdtv

By Erin Song


Is buying an HDTV in your list of upcoming plans? Take a look at our guide to find out what HDTV is about.

What is the meaning of HDTV?

Simple - High Definition Television.

Defining HDTV

This is a revolutionary way of filming that takes technology to the next level with increased resolution which makes programs appear more life-like. When it comes to high definition programming, you would usually think of sports events, which is correct. You would need to use a special camera for HDTV filming.

How would you know if it's HDTV or not?

It's all on the box, or perhaps on the model number of your television. DO NOT MISTAKE EDTV FOR HDTV! So many people are too concerned about the price of their appliance that they neglect pixel depth. The clarity on plasma and LCDs is not as crisp due to lesser depth. Ergo, you always want to prioritize pixel depth when trying to buy the best HDTV for your money.

Reasons to buy one

Remember that once you buy there is no turning back - and you won't regret it. A true HDTV and HD Television Program are ten times better picture clarity than at the movie theaters. When it comes to features, HDTVs have it all, and definitely put those old TV sets to shame in that department. More often than not you will find ports on them, allowing you to jack them up to your computer, so in that way they serve as a PC monitor you can view in many formats. And there's more - the cameras have since been revamped, allowing you to record HD programs, and manufacturers also up and improved the sound recording so not only do you get a much clearer picture, you get a much improved sound quality as well.

Screen errors and miscellaneous bugs are also significantly lesser considering HDTV has been around for a couple years now. In addition, the price has drastically fallen, for around $2000 you can buy an excellent 32-42 inch screen with high resolution and all the extra options.

Is there anything else I should know when buying a HDTV screen?

There is one, but it's not violent - cables can cost a lot. The cost of cables can be an obstacle, considering that an RGB or HDMI cable (as well as the others) can cost up to fifty smackeroos each. And lastly, you will need to do your research, because you may need to buy an LCD or Plasma screen or perhaps both based on your home's setup and requirements.
