pixel

Reviews In a CRT monitor, each pixel is a blend of red, green and blue phosphor dots that are activated by electron guns. In a LCD monitor, each point in the display grid constitutes a pixel. A single point on a computer display.

Panasonic TH-42PZ70 review

Reviews Fitting a 'Full HD' pixel count into a 42-inch plasma TV is tough. StrengthsWith practically all of the UK's HD sources using a 1,920x1,080-pixel resolution, it's a real relief to find the 42PZ70 finally bringing a 1,920x1,080 native pixel count to...

Philips 32PFL9632D review

Reviews The first model to sport Philips' new Perfect Pixel HD Engine processing system, the Philips 32PFL9632D 32-inch LCD also comes with Ambilight and no fewer than three HDMI inputs, so it's clearly not your average entry-level gogglebox.

Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III review

Reviews With this latest, £5,000 model, Canon has stepped up to a pixel count that, up till now, was solely the realm of medium format digital backs, while maintaining an edge in terms of physical size and sharpness of available lenses.

Panasonic TH-50PZ700 review

Reviews While LCD technology seemingly thinks nothing of fitting full HD pixel counts into its screens, full HD plasma TVs at sensible prices and sizes have been a scarily long time coming. But the set also displays other less obvious full HD traits, such...

Panasonic Viera TX-32LZD85 review

Reviews Apparently, the punters are even starting to demand the necessary 1,920x1,080-pixel counts in TVs as small as 32 inches. With no motion blur to detract from the picture's sharpness, we were also free to appreciate just how exceptionally crisp and...

Reviews The SD1 accommodates a 12x zoom lens, a mm, 16:9 LCD, a 5.1-channel surround microphone and a trio of 6mm, pixel CCDs.Ironically, one of the SD1's biggest design weaknesses stems from its lack of a bulky DVD drive, hard drive or tape compartment...

Kodak Zi6 review

Reviews Still, the 720p video it does capture is a step up from the 640x480-pixel VGA resolution video you typically find on competing, inexpensive direct-to-YouTube camcorders from Flip Video, RCA and Creative.
