57 cm (22.5") Color Calibration LCD Monitor for Video
Post-Production and Broadcasting Monitor for Reference and Editing
With the ColorEdge CG232W, studio professionals can now conduct all of their work on one monitor, whereas they previously needed both a master monitor for reference (playback) and a desktop monitor for editing. This offers significant cost savings, while solving the problem of trying to match color between different monitors.
Multiple Input Support
3D LUT and 10-bit Simultaneous Display
A 3D LUT (look-up table) allows for previewing how colors will be reproduced on the final film print. 10-bit simultaneous display means more than 1 billion colors can be shown on the screen at once. This is 64 times the numbers of colors supported by standard 8-bit display, and virtually eliminates color and grayscale banding.
16-Bit Internal Processing
With most LCD monitors, the black level is usually too bright which leads to banding and washing out of dark grays. 16-bit internal processing allows the ColorEdge CG232W to reproduce a high level of detail in dark areas.
