Contrast and color are up, screen reflections are down
Samsung's latest anti-glare filter reduces reflections dramatically while maintaining an ultra-high 15,000:1 contrast ratio. Afternoon ballgames look crisp and bright, while movies at night feature rich blacks and realistic shadow detail. Colors are vivid yet natural thanks to Samsung's powerful and precise video processing.

Built-in tuners pull in over-the-air HD channels — even cable HD in many areas
The FP-T5084 receives both analog and digital over-the-air broadcasts (antenna required). With this TV in your system, you'll no longer need to worry about the coming analog signal shutoff in 2009. Also, a "QAM" tuner allows cable TV subscribers to watch most unscrambled channels without using a set-top box.

New HDMI connections enhance remote-control operation
Home theater fans love HDMI connections for their stellar picture quality and single-cable simplicity. Here's more good news — the FP-T5084's Anynet+ HDMI connections include "CEC" control capability, which lets you control other compatible HDMI-connected components using only the TV's remote. That's a huge plus if you keep your components out of sight in a cabinet or closet. You have total control without resorting to complicated remote booster systems.

Integrated HDTV Tuner: The TV has a built-in over-the-air HDTV (ATSC) tuner, so you don't have to purchase a separate digital set-top box to receive and decode over-the-air HDTV/SDTV signals. The TV also has a 181-channel NTSC analog tuner. An additional QAM tuner decodes unscrambled digital cable signals.

Display Resolution: The television has a display resolution of 1920 x 1080. The HDMI and component video inputs will accept 1080p, 1080i, 720p, 480p, and 480i signals and will display them as 1920 x 1080. The television features a full HD 1920 x 1080p digital format converter for all inputs.

FilterBright With Anti-Glare Filter: FilterBright is a powerful anti-reflective film that absorbs external light and transmits internal light, thereby increasing the contrast levels and preventing unwanted reflection. This technology enhances the TV's contrast ratio in bright rooms even in the daytime to improve overall brightness for clearer image details. The television features a 10,000:1 contrast ratio for deeper blacks and brighter whites.

Digital Natural Image Engine (DNIe): This exclusive Samsung technology dramatically improves picture quality by enhancing the contrast, detail, and white balance, while also reducing the noise.

18-bit Processing: The Samsung plasma TV can display more natural and true colors thanks to its 18 bit video processor.

Picture Modes: You can choose one of the following picture modes:

  • Standard: resets the standard factory settings

Picture-In-Picture (PIP): The Picture-In-Picture feature allows you to simultaneously watch two video sources (such as a TV, VCR, or DVD), or watch one video source while using the PC input.

The small PIP window can be moved to any of the screen's four corners.

Freeze Picture: The TV allows you to freeze a moving picture. Normal sound will still be heard during this function.

Digital Noise Reduction: If the broadcast signal received by your TV is weak, you can activate the Digital Noise Reduction feature to help reduce any static and ghosting that may appear on the screen.
