Product Description

 
For the optimal high definition Blu-ray video experience at home, the Elite BDP51FD features True24fps capability. Because all your favorite movies are filmed at 24 frames-per-second (fps) while most home video systems are equipped to display video at 30fps, most standard systems have to subject film-based video content to alterations that make the 24fps content display ay 30fps. While this solves the problem, it also causes others — this alteration often results in the appearance of artifacts, or distortion of the video image. Tru24fsp capability, on the other hand, offers processing that seamlessly transfers the 24fps content on your favorite Blu-ray movie to your 24fps-compatible HDTV. Video as the director intended.

The Emperor's New clothes?

Date of Review:  Apr 23, 2009
The Bottom Line: Blu Ray is a flawed and confusing format but if you must have a player, this is a good unit. I'd advise against spending more right now.
Review: I ve often mused on the reasons why the DVD format became such a worldwide success. Was it simply a matter of the discs video quality being so much better than preceding VHS tapes? We ll it couldn t be just that otherwise Laser Disc would have...

Price Vs PS3 is high But worth it
 

not a good decision

Date of Review:  Feb 24, 2009
The Bottom Line: Not recommended because Pioneer is not able to come up with a decent firmware. Just look at the multiple updates history for their BluRays
Review: I bought this unit thinking that I will get the best on the market for this price ... but I was totally wrong. I passed through two units because I just wanted to give a chance to this model. I just want to mention that I performed the test who...
