Hi,

I saw in Future Shop the Hitachi 51F500 and compare the zooms to 51"
toshiba and Sony.

I found the Hitachi zoom work very close to Toshiba zoom when I look 4:3
picture (4:3 enchanced on toshiba and theater wide 2 on toshiba if I
remember correctly).

I don<t have notice the zoom edge expansion each side of tv . I was looking
musical clips videos .. not ideal for tests I know ... On my 46" Hitachi, I
have problem to not see it ..

Someone know if the 4:3 expanded on 46 and 51" work same ?

Eric,

All the current lineup of Hitachi rear-projection HDTVs (including the
46F500 and 51F500) have the same aspect ratio options. 4:3, 4:3
Expanded, Zoom 1, Zoom 2, 16:9 Standard (4:3 broadcast appear
stretched, HD and 1:85:1 widescreen DVDs fill out the entire view
area), 16:9 Zoom

It's possible they had the TV set to 4:3 Zoom1 which would not distort
around the sides like 4:3 Expanded does.
