Introducing the TV

Welcome

Thank you for purchasing this Sony’s LCD projection TV. This manual is for 
models KF-42E200A and KF-50E200A (Canada model only).

Package Contents

Along with your new TV, the packing box contains a remote control and two 
AA (R6) batteries. See page 74 for the complete list of packaging contents.

Features

Some of the features that you will enjoy with your new TV include:

WEGA Engine:

 Delivers superb picture quality from any video source 

by minimizing the signal deterioration caused by digital-to-analog 
conversion and stabilizing the signal processing. This engine features 
unique Sony technology, including:

DRC

®

 (Digital Reality Creation)-MF V1:

 Unlike conventional 

line doublers, the DRC Multifunction feature replaces the signal's 
NTSC waveform with the near-HD equivalent by digital mapping 
processing. The DRC Palette option lets you customize the level of 
detail (Reality) and smoothness (Clarity).

Advanced Iris:

 Automatically detects the brightness of the screen. By 

adjusting the iris shutter, this feature can provide you with the best 
contrast and brightness from one scene to the next for your TV viewing.

MENU: 

Sony’s unique user interface provides easy access to useful TV 

functions such as external inputs (switch among connected 
equipments), favorite channels (create a list of your favorite channels), 
watch TV or to customize your TV settings.

Wide Screen Mode:

 Allows you to watch 4:3 normal broadcasts in 

wide screen mode (16:9 aspect ratio).

CineMotion

®

:

 Using the reverse 3-2 pull down technology, the 

CineMotion feature provides smoother picture movement when playing 
back movies or other video sources on film.

Parental Control:

 V-Chip technology allows parents to block 

unsuitable programming from younger viewers.

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) Inputs:

 Provide an 

uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface between this TV and 
any HDMI-equipped audio/video component, such as a set-top box, 
Blu-ray Disc

TM

 player, DVD player, and A/V receiver. Your personal 

computer can be connected to this TV with HDMI Input (see page 30)
HDMI supports enhanced, or high-definition video.

Component Video Inputs:

 

Offers a high-quality video for DVD (480p, 

480i) and digital set-top box (1080i, 720p, 480p, 480i) connections.

S VIDEO Inputs:

 Provides a high-quality image from connected 

equipment.

Favorite Channels:

 Allows you to navigate a list of up to 16 favorite 

channels without leaving the current channel.

Steady Sound

®

:

 Equalizes volume levels so there is consistent output 

between programs and commercials.
