Go green without sacrificing picture quality. Combining energy-saving features with quality picture performance, BRAVIA® VE5 Eco Series HDTVs make other televisions green with envy. The 40" VE5 boasts a high-efficiency HCFL backlight which provides outstanding image quality while exceeding ENERGY STAR® 3.0 requirements by over 50% in Home Mode. An integrated Presence Sensor detects if you've stepped away from your TV for awhile and shuts the picture off. A built-in LightSensor® automatically adjusts to your room's ambient light and lowers the brightness of the TV's backlight to conserve energy. Plus, enjoy Full HD 1080p picture quality and smooth motion with MotionflowTM 120Hz refresh rate technology.
Eco-centric Design
Go green without sacrificing picture quality. The 40" VE5 features a high-efficiency HCFL backlight that provides optimum brightness and reduces power consumption up to 50 percent versus Energy Star 3.0 requirements. In fact, this set consumes only 90 watts, which is as little as an incandescent light bulb.
Your Presence is Required
If Elvis left the room, the VE5 would know. This HDTV has a Presence Sensor which detects if you've stepped away from your TV and automatically turns the picture off. If after 30 minutes, the sensor still doesn't detect movement in the room, the set turns off completely.
Flip the Switch to Save Power
Did you know that most TVs consume power even when turned off? The VE5 is equipped with a new Energy Saving Switch which reduces power consumption of the TV to zero when you're not watching television.
A Smarter Way to Watch TV
Imagine a TV that reduces power consumption based on your viewing environment. Dim the lights to watch a movie and the integrated Light Sensor automatically adjusts to your room's ambient light and lowers the brightness of the TV's backlight to conserve energy.
Made For Fast-moving Action
Enjoy a more fluid, natural and realistic viewing experience while watching fast-action sports and movies. MotionflowTM 120Hz technology enhances sharpness and delivers smooth motion for fast-action pictures.
Bring Your Picture to Life
Every scene will be sharper, more vibrant and life-like thanks to BRAVIA EngineTM 2 fully digital video processor. This unique technology optimizes contrast and enhances overall image detail while significantly reducing noise.
FEATURES:
16:9 Full HD 1080p Resolution Panel (1920x1080) -
16:9 Full HD 1080p resolution panel (1920 x 1080) accepts any HDTV signal and renders it with optimum resolution, so you can take full advantage of Blu-ray DiscTM players and Sony® PlayStation®3 entertainment systems that can deliver 1080p content (all sold separately).
Dynamic contrast -
Dynamic contrast involves real-time image processing that results in deep blacks in darker scenes, as well as fine details in shadows and other dark areas of the picture for a difference you can truly see.
LightSensor® technology -
An integrated light sensor gauges the ambient light in the room and raises or lowers the brightness of the HDTV's backlight based on room lighting conditions. Dim the lights to watch a movie, and the light sensor also dims the backlight, reducing unnecessary power consumption even further.
BRAVIA® SyncTM capable1 -
BRAVIA Sync capability combines the one-touch access and control functionality of BRAVIA Theatre SyncTM with the ability to control CEC-enabled Sony® Handycam® camcorders and Cyber-shot® digital still cameras using the HDTV's remote and an on-screen display via an HDMITM connection.
BRAVIA® Link compatibility -
BRAVIA Link compatibility expands your HDTV's capabilities by letting you connect optional BRAVIA Link modules, including the BRAVIA DVD Link, BRAVIA Wireless Link, and BRAVIA Input Link (all sold separately).
ATSCTM/NTSC tuner with QAM -
A built-in ATSC/NTSC tuner with QAM delivers over-the-air digital TV and unencrypted HDTV broadcast signals, as well as traditional analog TV broadcasts.
High-efficiency HCFL backlight -
The 40-inch diagonal VE5 HDTV features an HCFL (Hot Cathode Fluorescent Lamp) backlight, which uses specialized components to provide optimum brightness as soon as you turn on the HDTV and to reduce power consumption by over 50% versus Energy Star 3.0 requirements in Home Mode. In fact, the KDL-40VE5 consumes only 90 watts -- as little as an incandescent light bulb.
Energy-saving standby power switch -
The new Energy Saving Switch, located on the side panel of the VE5, enables your HDTV to consume zero power when it's in standby mode, effectively eliminating the use of unnecessary power when you're not watching TV.
BRAVIA EngineTM 2 fully digital video processor -
The BRAVIA Engine 2 fully digital video processor uses a collection of unique Sony® algorithms to significantly reduce noise, enhance overall image detail, and optimize contrast so every scene produces sharp, vibrant, life-like images.
USB with photos and music -
Connect your camera, USB-enabled MP3 player, or USB storage device directly to your HDTV's USB input to view photos on the big screen or listen to your favorite music.
Favorites Menu -
The Favorites Menu function makes it easy to quickly access your favorite channels, video inputs, and digital images to share with family and friends.
MotionflowTM 120Hz technology -
Engineered for fast-action sports, movies, and games, Motionflow 120Hz technology reduces judder and blurriness. Overall, motion is smoother, sharper, and more natural when watching your favorite HD content, DVDs, and even broadcast movies and prime-time programming.
Conserve energy with Presence Sensor -
The Presence Sensor helps you conserve energy when you forget to turn off the VE5 HDTV. If the Presence Sensor detects that you've been away from your HDTV for 5, 30, or 60 minutes, the backlight will automatically turn off, but the volume will remain on so you can still hear the sound. If you don't return after the display has been off for 30 minutes, the VE5 turns completely off.
Dynamic Backlight Control -
The Dynamic Backlight Control feature adjusts the brightness of the backlight both to optimize image quality and to reduce power consumption. It works in real time, optimizing for both bright outdoor images and dark interior shots scene-by-scene for even greater power savings.
HD input x 7 -
Get versatile HD connection options with seven HD inputs. Four HDMITM inputs (up to 1080/60p capable) let you connect a Sony® PlayStation®3 entertainment system, Blu-ray DiscTM player, or any other HDMI-capable equipment (all sold separately) and get uncompressed digital video and multi-channel digital audio on a single cable. An HD component input and an HD combo input (1080/60i capable) provide added HD-capable connectivity, and a PC input (HD-15 pin) offers the added versatility of using your HDTV as a computer monitor.2
24p True CinemaTM -
24p True Cinema mode provides a direct connection to 24p video sources, avoiding conversions and allowing users to enjoy films at their intended 24 fps (frames per second) cinematic picture quality when using a 24p True Cinema capable output device, such as a Blu-ray DiscTM player or Sony® PlayStation®3 entertainment system.
VESA®-compatible hole spacing -
VESA-compatible hole spacing uses an industry-standard mounting hole pattern that can be used with VESA-compliant mounting brackets, taking the guesswork out of selecting the proper hardware for hanging your HDTV on the wall. Wall mount bracket sold separately. Restrictions apply
