The Samsung LN52B750 LCD HDTV – What is 1080p?
The Samsung LN52B750 52 inch 1080p LCD HDTV is Samsung’s latest and greatest 52 inch LCD HDTV. HDTV stands for High Definition Television and incorporates a few excellent qualities to provide high definition images for its watchers.
Most features of the Samsung LN52B750 are pretty self explanatory, although the term 1080p isn’t a familiar term with most HDTV shoppers.
1080p stands for 1080 “progressive scans” which means that there are 1080 lines of vertical resolution (or 1080 progressive scans) on your television’s screen. Previously, the highest number of progressive scans available to buy was 720p.
If you can imagine a mobile phone camera, which typically have much much lower “pixels” than a digital camera. You don’t get as high quality images from them and that is exactly why. The same goes for High Definition televisions – the more progressive scans it has, the more pixels it has, and the higher the image quality.
If you can imagine that your TV screen has a massive invisible grid on it with hundreds of thousands of squares, (or “pixels”) and in each of the squares are the colors which make up the images. Each grid will have a different color and your pictures will be shown clearly (as they are every day).
Now, imagine if you took this grid away and replaced it with a grid with lots more, smaller squares (pixels) – this would make the pictures much more clearer and sharper, as each little square would be a lot finer.
Assuming you’re watching a 1080p screen with 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio, your TV will have 1080 lines of vertical resolution and 1920 lines of horizontal resolution. That is a heck of a lot of pixels to watch a movie or TV show on – two million, seventy three thousand and six hundred to be exact!
In conclusion, the more pixels your screen has, the better the image quality will be, and the more progressive scans it has, the more pixels it will have. 1080p is the highest possible amount of progressive scans available to buy right now, and will be for a very, very long time. It provides the sharpest and clearest image quality money can buy.
