Product Description:
Prepare for HDTV and have it too. The Sharp LC-37D42U has both analog NTSC and digital ATSC TV tuners. The ATSC TV tuner lets you receive high-definition TV broadcasts free over-the-air (where available) when using an HDTV antenna. The bright 37" widescreen award-winning AQUOS LCD panel provides 1200:1 static-contrast ratio and 6,000:1 dynamic-contrast ratio for superb imaging. A movie shown at a prime theater delivers about a 500:1 contrast ratio as a comparison to the astounding picture presentation from this TV. The screen has a superfast response time of 6 milliseconds that makes it perfect for faithfully reproducing fast-action video and videogames. In addition to the usual complement of TV and video inputs, the LC-37D42U also has 2 new HDMI integrated digital A/V inputs and an input that lets you connect a PC for use as a computer display. Imagine browsing the Internet using a 32" screen TV. At about 53 pounds (with included TV stand), this flat-panel screen can also be wall mounted with an optional wall bracket.
