EIZO Introduces FlexScan SX2761W and FlexScan SX2461W Wide Gamut LCD Monitors.Hakusan, Japan, Nov 30, 2007 - (JCN JCN Japan Corporate News JCN Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience JCN Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing JCN Journal of Christian Nursing JCN Job Control Number JCN Journal of Child Neurology JCN joint communications network (US DoD) Newswire) - Eizo Nanao Corporation (TSE See Tokyo Stock Exchange. TSE 1. See Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE). 2. See Toronto Stock Exchange (TSE). : 6737) today introduced two wide color gamut, LCD monitors, the 27" FlexScan SX2761W and 24" FlexScan SX2461W. These large screen monitors come with an abundance of shared performance and color control features that make them ideal for web and product design, CAD, publishing, and digital photography. With a native resolution of 1920 x 1200 (16:10 aspect ratio), both monitors offer abundant horizontal space for application windows and tool palettes. They can also both display images in "Full HD" or 1920 x 1080 resolution that is standard for Blu-Ray and HD DVD formats See HD DVD and high-def DVD formats. . The maximum brightness is 320 cd/m2 for the FlexScan SX2761W and 300 cd/m2 for the FlexScan SX2461W. The contrast ratio for both models is 850:1, and horizontal and vertical viewing angles are 178 degrees. A 6 ms midtone response time minimizes blurring and ghosting See ghosting server and ghost. for smooth playback of moving images. Dual DVI-I (DVI-Integrated) See DVI. inputs are included for connecting to two PCs with digital or analog graphics boards, and both inputs supports high bandwidth digital content protection (HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) An encryption system for enforcing digital rights management (DRM) over DVI and HDMI interfaces. The copy protection system (DRM) resides in the computer, DVD player or set-top box. ) for viewing of content from HDCP-equipped devices. A USB USB in full Universal Serial Bus Type of serial bus that allows peripheral devices (disks, modems, printers, digitizers, data gloves, etc.) to be easily connected to a computer. 2.0 hub with one upstream and two downstream ports is also included. The wide gamut LCD panels reproduce 96% and 95% of the Adobe RGB color space The Adobe RGB color space is an RGB color space developed by Adobe Systems in 1998. It was designed to encompass most of the colors achievable on CMYK color printers, but by using RGB primary colors on a device such as the computer display. for the SX2761W and SX2461W respectively, allowing them to display most colors of a photograph taken in a digital camera's Adobe RGB (Red Green Blue) The computer's native color space, which is the color system for capturing and displaying images. RGB was derived from our own perception of color because human eyes are sensitive to red, green and blue (see trichromaticity). mode. An sRGB mode is also included so that images meant for display in this narrower but widely used color space such as those used on most web pages will be shown as intended. The FlexScan SX2761W and SX2461W come equipped with EIZO's latest ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) Pronounced "a-sick." A chip that is custom designed for a specific application rather than a general-purpose chip such as a microprocessor. (application specific integrated circuit). The ASIC has a 12-bit look-up table with a total color palette of 68 billion colors from which the most appropriate 16.7 million are selected. It also has 16-bit internal processing results in smooth display of grayscale In computing, a grayscale or greyscale digital image is an image in which the value of each pixel is a single sample. Displayed images of this sort are typically composed of shades of gray, varying from black at the weakest intensity to white at the strongest, though in tones to bring out details especially in dark areas of an image. Furthermore, the ASIC includes a Digital Uniformity Equalizer (DUE) function that corrects the brightness and chroma uniformity errors characteristic of LCD panels. A staple on most of EIZO's FlexScan monitors is a BrightRegulator function which reads the ambient light and adjusts the screen's brightness accordingly. The FlexScan SX2761W and FlexScan SX2461W are equipped with a new version of BrightRegulator which uses two user-determined reference points for adjustment instead of one. This allows the monitors to more accurately achieve the ideal brightness in both brightly and dimly lit rooms. Both monitors can simulate two types of red-green color vision deficiency Noun 1. color vision deficiency - genetic inability to distinguish differences in hue color blindness, colour blindness, colour vision deficiency dichromacy, dichromasy, dichromatism, dichromatopsia, dichromia - a deficiency of color vision in which the -protanopia and deuteranopia deuteranopia /deu·ter·an·o·pia/ (-no´pe-ah) a type of dichromatic vision with confusion of greens and reds, and retention of the sensory mechanism for two hues only—blue and yellow. . This allows designers to check how their colors schemes appear to people with color blindness and ensure they meet "Color Universal Design" principles. All simulation is done in real time for both still and moving images, making it a faster and easier to use than software-based tools. Toggling between normal viewing mode and color vision deficiency simulation modes is done with the bundled UniColor u·ni·col·or adj. Monochromatic. Pro software. (Supported by Windows Vista/XP/2000 and Macintosh OS 10.3.9 to 10.4.) Five imaging modes - Text, Picture, Movie, Custom, and sRGB are included. With the bundled ScreenManager(R) Pro for LCD utility software1 any mode can be assigned to an application so that when the application is opened, the screen automatically changes to its assigned mode. For digital photo enthusiasts, a special "EIZO Edition" of the popular digital photo editing software Zoner Photo Studio 9 is bundled. This software takes the user through the whole process of managing and editing digital photos, and includes color management features to achieve true colors on screen and on paper. (Supported by Windows Vista/XP/2000/ME/98.) Additional Features - Adjustable stand with 118 mm height adjustment (82 mm for SX2461W) and 40 degrees tilt, 70 degrees swivel, and 90 degrees rotation for portrait mode . - OSD menu includes adjustment of brightness, gamma, saturation, hue, gain, and color temperature, and six color (RGBCMY) adjustment. - Five-year warranty[2].
