At the heart of LaCie’s 700 Series Monitors 
beats a ground-breaking technology: an 
RGB-LED-based backlight unit producing 
purer red, green and blue primaries, 
resulting in a larger range of vibrant colors 
previously unattainable by CCFL-based 
LCD monitors. In combination with the deep 
black, high contrast and excellent viewing 
angles offered by VA LCD technology, this 
offers a color experience that is truer to life 
than ever before.

700 Series

ISO Coated

A critical benefit of RGB-LEDs is the wide 
color gamut they deliver. Thanks to this, 
the LaCie 700 Series Monitors display up 
to 123% of the NTSC gamut, exceeding 
Adobe RGB and ISO Coated color spaces. 

Colors that you could only imagine now 
become fully visible.

Captured Gamut

Monitor Gamut

Narrow Gamut Workflow

Gamut mapping is needed because 
the monitor’s gamut is smaller than  
the captured gamut.

Wide Gamut: Even the most saturated 
colors can be displayed.

Narrow Gamut: Out-of-gamut colors need 
to be mapped, resulting in color loss.

Wide Gamut Workflow

The monitor gamut and captured  
gamut closely fit together. Virtually  
no gamut mapping is needed.

New RGB-LED-Backlit  

Technology

Broadest Gamut

Up until now, the monitor has always been 
the bottleneck of the professional workflow. 
Because its gamut was significantly smaller 
than that of professional cameras and 
print processes, some captured colors 
were impossible to display. These colors 
needed to be either ignored or mapped 
to a smaller gamut. They could easily be 
damaged during the retouching process 
because the colors being retouched were 
not the original colors. Or worse, they 
could be totally lost. Another consequence 
of the smaller monitor gamut was the 
difficulty of displaying reliable softproofs.

Now, with such a wide monitor gamut, 
almost no gamut mapping is needed. 
Literally all captured colors can be 
displayed and softproofs are closer than 
ever to the final printout. For the first 
time, the door to a lossless workflow has 
been opened.

Lossless Workflow

RGB-LED-backlit technology is more environmentally friendly than 
traditional backlights as they contain neither mercury nor halogens.  
They also offer a longer lifetime and even consume less power.
