Overview
Offering 99% coverage of the Adobe RGB color space and true black color support, the ColorEdge CG247X 24.1″ 16:10 Hardware Calibration IPS Monitor from EIZO is designed to suit the needs of those requiring accurate color representation. In addition to Adobe RGB color support this display reproduces 98% of the DCI-P3 standard and features preset modes for EBU, Rec. 709, SMPTEC, and DCI to ensure the display is set to accommodate the content being viewed on the screen. Additionally, this color accurate display features a 1,500:1 contrast ratio along with true black color support to offer enhanced bright and dark colors for a more dynamic picture.
Features
The CG247X display also comes equipped with its own built-in color calibration sensor. This sensor slides out from the bottom bezel and can automatically calibrate the display, calibration times can also be set using the OSD menu or the included ColorNavigator software. Along with the built-in sensor, this EIZO monitor also accepts most major color calibration sensors.
True Black Display
In compliance with the DCI standard, the ColorEdge CG247X offers a high contrast ratio of 1,500:1 for producing true blacks that are otherwise difficult to display on a typical LCD monitor. When viewing the screen from an angle in a dimly lit room, dark tones typically appear washed out due to the display characteristics of LCD backlights. The CG Series is equipped with a retardation film which allows tones to retain their depth even when viewed from an angle.
I/P Conversion for Flicker-Free Display
The HDMI input of the ColorEdge CG247X supports I/P (interlace/progressive) conversion for converting the interlace signals from TV and video into progressive signals for flicker-free display.
LED Buttons and On-Screen Button Guide
For dimly lit work environments like post-production studios, the monitor comes with backlit control buttons and an on-screen button guide to indicate what each button is for.
3D LUT for Accurate Color Display
A 3D LUT (Look-Up Table), which adjusts colors individually on an RGB cubic table, is included. With the bundled ColorNavigator software’s emulation function, the 3D LUT applies a film look to the image so creators can check how it will be seen by their audience. The 3D LUT also improves the monitor’s additive color mixture (combination of RGB), which is a key factor in its ability to display neutral gray tones.
10-Bit Simultaneous Display
Using the DisplayPort or HDMI inputs, the ColorEdge CG247X offers 10-bit simultaneous display from a 16-bit LUT, which means it can show more than one billion colors simultaneously. This is 64 times more colours than you get with an 8-bit display, resulting in smooth color gradations and reduced Delta-E between two adjacent colours.
Light-Shielding Hood
The CG Series comes bundled with a shading hood that effectively prevents glare on the monitor’s screen caused by ambient lighting. The ColorEdge CG247X’s shading hood is newly designed and attaches to the monitor magnetically. This allows the users to attach the hood quickly and easily without needing to connect separate parts.
