Displaying images on HD TV
 
I have just started cropping/resizing pics at 1920 x 1080 pixels and saving as high quality jpegs for viewing on an 40" HD TV (via a USB socket on TV).Must say the results are superb. Anyone else tried this ?
One thing I have noticed is that any sharpening done via a smaller pc monitor will be overemphasized on the big screen, I now rarely sharpen at all for 40" display.

That reminds me why I need a new laptop.
Something that has HDMI port for watching HD pictures on big screen LCD.

How do you do this ? I have a HD 40" and have thought of it but never tried it?
I thought I would have to put them on disc and view through the recorder but you seem to suggest a USB. Does that mean transferring images to the lap top (my computer is up stairs) and simply connect to TV? if so do I need some special lead?

David, on my 40" TV I have a USB input that accepts a USB flash drive. I just transfer the files to the drive and plug into the TV. There is a button on the TV remote that accesses the drive, you can select various options like slide show and zoom.
I guess other ways would be to connect a laptop via HDMI as sassan has suggested (but not all laptops have a HDMI port).
I can also use the TV as a monitor via a VGA connection although I have yet to try it.
You need to find out exactly what inputs there are on your TV .

VGA to HDMI cable can be used, or a memory card / flash drive :)
