Introduction

Designed for use in broadcasting and commercial applications, the model BT-LH900E is a slim-line and lightweight liquid crystal video monitor with an 8.4-type liquid crystal screen.

For use, secure it in place by, for instance, installing it in a rack by using the optional rack-mounting adapters BT-MA900G or mounting it on a tripod. (For details, refer to the instructions in the operation guide of the BT-MA900G.)

Slim design, light weight, compact size, low power consumption and driven by DC power

Since this monitor uses an LCD panel, it has a slim design, light weight and compact size. Furthermore, while supporting HD specifications, it has a low power consumption, and it can be operated using DC power: these are all features which make the monitor useful in outdoor locations.

Multiple formats supported

In addition to its two lines of SDI input connectors (automatic HD/SD switching), the monitor provides one line each of component input connectors and composite input connectors.

Wide viewing angle

The monitor can display excellent images over an angle extending for 170 degrees in both the top-bottom and left- right directions.

High-definition images

At 1024 a 768 dots (XGA), the large number of screen pixels ensures a high colour reproducibility and tonal range.

Functions

The main controls can be relocated to the bottom surface or right panel of the main unit to support monitor specifications, viewfinder specifications and other applications.

The monitor comes with a film gamma correction function to support its use as the viewfinder for the AJ- HDC27F. (For further details, consult with your dealer or a Panasonic Service Centre.)
