Faithful Color Correction from the 3D-LUT
By using a three-dimensional LUT (Look Up Table) for each RGB
color and applying precise 10 bit image processing, faithful colors
are reproduced from low to high luminance levels and natural
intermediate colors are attained. (See page 2 for details.)
I/P Conversion Circuit for Motion Response
A circuit delay time (not including panel delay) of approximately 5
msec* is achieved by incorporating an I/P converter circuit that
converts SD and HD interlace signals with high precision to generate
progressive signals without causing field-length delay. Minimizing the
delay between the input signal and monitor output enables the user
to confirm footage without any incongruity.
* Differs slightly depending on the signal format.
Diagonal Line Compensation
Jagged noise on diagonal lines in
moving images is a common
problem. These LCD monitors solve
this by detecting correlations in the
diagonal direction, resulting in
smooth, precise reproduction of
moving images.
Broadcast Settings for
Gradation and Color Temperature
Individual RGB corrections are made on every monitor that is
shipped, to ensure that rated gamma properties (g = 2.2) are
reproduced, and gradation suitable for broadcasting is achieved. A
color temperature of 9300 K/6500 K/5600 K, or 3000 K to 9300 K,
can be selected with the variable setting.
WFM (Y/R/G/B) Display
The built-in waveform monitoring
function displays a waveform in a
sub-screen. The display signal can
be selected from Y, R, G and B.
Vectorscope Display
All lines of the input signal via SDI
are displayed as a vectorscope, and
can be positioned in any of the four
corners of the screen.
Various Markers
Various markers can be displayed in both 16:9 and 4:3 aspect ratios.
• Aspect Marker (16:9):
4:3, 13:9, 14:9, CNSCO2.39, CNSCO2.35,
2:1 or VISTA, with background brightness control of Black (0%), Half
(50%) or Normal (100%).
• Safe Area Marker (16:9/4:3):
95%, 93%, 90%, 88%, 80% or VAR
(variable setting).
• Center Marker (16:9/4:3):
ON/
OFF. The center marker can be
displayed together with another
marker, as shown in the example
right.
Cross Hatch Overlay
A simple cross hatch overlay can be
displayed to check the tilt of the
camera.
Pixel-to-Pixel Display
This function lets you display and
confirm video pixels without any
resizing. When displaying 1080i/p,
you can choose from five display
areas: center, right-top, right-
bottom, left-top or left-bottom.
Still Frame Display
A frame of video can easily be frozen
and displayed as a still image on the
left side of the screen. This function
can be used to match a live camera
with a frame of video shot at an
earlier time or with a different
camera.
Audio Level Meter
The color audio level meter displays
the input level of embedded audio
(SDI, HDMI*) or analog audio.* The
display mode can be selected from
2-channel, 4-channel, 8-channel or
OFF. And it's equipped with
reference point setting, peak hold
and over-range display functions.
* For HDMI or analog audio input, the level meter
displays only two channels.
Time Code Display
With HD SDI input, this function
displays the value of the VITC, LTC
or UB time code.
Closed Caption Display
The BT-LH1850 can display closed
captions with an SDI or VIDEO input.
It supports the EIA/CEA-708 HD SDI
closed captioning standard (EIA/
CEA-608 SD-SDI closed captioning
standard), and can display up to
eight windows simultaneously.
HV Delay Display and Mono Mode
The HV Delay function that displays the video blanking period, and
the Mono mode that switches the display to black-and-white, can be
assigned to function keys for quick access.
