Responding to the continued demands
for a true master monitor, Sony
introduces the BVM-L230, a 23-inch*
LCD master monitor that uses Sony
exclusive TRIMASTER
technology.
Designed from the foundation of the
market-acclaimed BVM CRT evalua-
tion monitors, the BVM-L230 has been
designed to inherit and surpass its CRT
predecessors – in both image quality
and operational performance.
The stunning quality of the BVM-L230
is only made possible by the use of
three newly developed Sony technolo-
gies – a high-grade, 10 bit 23-inch* full
resolution LCD panel, a new precision
backlight system and an exclusive
new display engine – all of which have
been optimised for producing images
at master monitor quality on a flat-pan-
el platform. By combining such devices
with sophisticated colour management
algorithms and advanced feedback
systems, the BVM-L230 achieves highly
precise colour reproduction, image
consistency and image uniformity to
the same degree – or higher – as its CRT
predecessors.
For monitor setup and control, the
BVM-L230 retains the same operational
convenience as the BVM CRT series,
including its remote-control panel
design and features such as Auto
White Balance, Blue Channel Display,
Monochrome Display, RGB Cut Off, H/V
delay, Chroma Up and Safety Markers.
The BVM-L230 also takes maximum
advantage of its new signal processing
technology, enabling unprecedented
performance for today’s new mas-
ter monitoring needs. Such features
include a newly developed colour
gamut emulation function, a unique
Picture & Picture display function,
a wide variety of PC and A/V input
capabilities from VGA to WUXGA
and from composite to 2K XYZ 4:4:4
display, a Modular Control System and
an Interlace Display Mode. Where
top-quality monitoring is a necessity,
the BVM-L230 is the ideal solution
of choice from high-end acquisi-
tion, production, post-production and
broadcast monitoring, right through to
Telecine applications.
