    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD exhibits an impressive picture in terms of color balance. Hues are rich and vibrant, with accurate fleshtones and deep, pure blacks. Images are sharp and finely detailed. Miniblinds in the diner do not pose much of a threat to image quality. Edge enhancement is the biggest distraction, creating ugly halos around images. Though the picture is quite pleasing, minor pixelization creates a digitally harsh appearance at times. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Reason #56 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I am most interested in the formats (audio) of DVDs. I buy a DVD, and then it is re-introduced in a deluxe package some time later. I am not that interested in the extras, but the DVD is invariably upgraded in sound. This is usually DTS ES surround but in some cases DTS ES 6.1 (discrete). Most reviews (Home Theater, Stereophile Guide To Home Theater, Sound And Vision) do not address this situation. I am subscribing to Widescreen Review, hopefully, to solve this problem. I am looking forward to my first issue and a long relationship with your magazine.
