3D Feature
Brings you the experience of 3D (three-dimensional) pictures and graphics using 3D Glasses.
This feature lets you experience powerful 3D entertainment, such as stereoscopic 3D games and 3D Blu-ray Discs.
Turn the 3D Glasses on, then put them on to watch 3D content.
- 3D effect is available only when pictures are displayed in full screen.
- Additional viewers with 3D Glasses can also enjoy 3D content.
- The 3D Glasses are supplied or available as an optional accessory, depending on your TV model. In some regions/countries, the 3D Glasses may not be available.
- The 3D Glasses TDG-BR250 may not be available in some regions/countries. If unavailable, use other compatible 3D Glasses.
- If [Motionflow] is set to other than [Off], the smooth movement of the picture may be lost as the picture process to minimise screen flicker is applied. In such a case, set [Motionflow] to [Off] to display the original picture.
