A Sony BRAVIA W4000 Series LCD TV is more versatile than you

Six ways a SONY BRAVIA W4000 Series LCD TV can change your life without even watching television

1. Transform movie night

With full HD 1080p resolution and stunning picture processing, a W4000 BRAVIA TV is the perfect partner for a Blu-ray Disc™ player, like the brand-new BDP-S350. Bringing the next generation of High Definition entertainment to your living room, the S350 serves up Blu-ray movies in style, and upscales all your favourite DVDs to a whole new level.


2. Make your family stars

Welcome to the Sony HDR-TG3, the world’s smallest, lightest, slimmest HD camcorder*. Not only does it make it a doddle to shoot your very own High Definition movies (complete with surround sound!), but it’s even easier to enjoy them on your BRAVIA W4000 as it has BRAVIA Sync technology that means the TV’s remote can control the Handycam.


3. Pump up your PC

The latest Sony VAIO AR laptops allow you to enjoy immense power – and a ton of fun – anywhere. Boasting a Blu-ray drive of their own, they can hook up to your BRAVIA for a feast of HD movie action, or be used to create your very own HD discs. Then there’s PC gaming on the big screen, digital photos, YouTube…


4. Enjoy big-screen smiles

It’s never been easier to take great photos – and admire your efforts on your TV! The Cyber-shot W170 has HD output designed to optimise images for your BRAVIA set. To ensure you like what you see, the W170’s Smile Shutter picks perfect smiling picture moments, with image stabilisation, automatic contrast/exposure adjustment and more, all packed in its tiny case.


5. Watch when you want

Be a slave to TV schedules no longer! Sony’s range of HDD DVD recorders allow you to watch what you want, when you want – whether that’s last night’s TV or a movie on DVD. With a 250 GB hard-disk drive capacity, the RDR-HXD995 allows you to pause and rewind live TV, plus record and erase everyday TV at no cost, while being able to archive the best moments to DVD.


6. Never be bored again

The multi-talented PS3 not only allows you to enjoy the hottest High Definition games, but will also bring music, movies and more to your BRAVIA’s screen. Blu-ray Disc playback, internet browsing and media streaming are among its ever-expanding armoury of entertainment options.
