LCD Monitor
The LMD-9020 is a cost-effective addition to the 8.4-inch*
handheld-type LUMA Professional LCD Monitors,
offering the performance to replace CRT monitors
with the quality expected from the PVM-9L2 range.
The LCD panel of the LMD-9020 offers high resolution
and excellent color reproduction, combined with high
contrast and high brightness. This monitor also has a
wide viewing angle, plus a high level of robustness
thanks to its AR-coated protection panel.
As standard, the LMD-9020 accepts a variety of
analog formats from SD to HD. The unit can be AC,
DC, or battery powered. And, with its slim design and
half-rack width, the LMD-9020 can be conveniently
used on a lap, desktop, or mounted in a rack for ENG
and EFP operations, as well as in mobile applications
and studios. The LMD-9020 also offers the familiar
operational features inherited from the Sony PVM
Series of CRT monitors.
The combination of all these features makes the
LMD-9020 a perfect choice for a smooth migration
from CRT to LCD.

Features
■■ Input Versatility
The LMD-9020 provides a range of analog
inputs as standard. For typical SD video
monitoring, analog composite (NTSC/PAL),
analog component/RGB (525/60i and
625/50i), and Y/C (S-Video) signals are
accepted. The LMD-9020 also accepts a
variety of analog progressive SD and HD
formats, including 480/60P and 576/50P,
and high-definition 1080/60i, 1080/50i,
720/50P and 720/60P. It can also accept
1080/24PsF.
■■ High Picture Quality –
High Purity Panel
The LMD-9020 uses a VGA (640 x 480)
resolution LCD panel, with high purity color
filters. The result is high-brightness, highcontrast images with precise color
reproduction. Also, the LMD-9020 provides
a wide 170-degree viewing angle, both
vertically and horizontally.
In addition, its robust AR-coated protection
layer minimizes the chance of the panel
being scratched during transportation – an
extremely important criteria for use in the
field or in any mobile application.
■■ ENG KIT
The LMD-9020 is a strategic choice for use
in ENG and EFP field operations. When
compared to CRT displays, the picture
contrast of these monitors is much less
affected by ambient light, allowing clear
images to be viewed even under strong
sunlight. For further protection, the optional
VF-509 ENG kit provides a viewing hood,
carrying handle, and connector protector.
■■ Convenient Installation
The LMD-9020 is 5U high and half-rack
wide. Using the optional MB-525 Mounting
Bracket with a nine-step tilt capability, two
units can be installed side-by-side in a 19inch EIA standard rack.
