Maximum 18-bit digital signal processing renders images with the
equivalent of 5,120 steps of gradation, while suppressing noise and
minimizing blocked shadows.
This wide colour gamut
exceeds even the colour
reproduction range of the
HDTV standard
(ITU-R, BT.709). The colours
produced are more faithful
to the original and appear
more natural.
