Superb Picture Performance

High Purity Color Filters

The LMD-2450W and LMD-2050W use precisely manufactured
RGB color filters, allowing the reproduction of colors with
stunning depth and saturation to create highly natural images.

Accurate Gamma and Stable White Balance
– ChromaTRU Color Processing

For an extra level of color reproduction accuracy, every LCD
panel used in the LMD-2450W and LMD-2050W is precisely
color calibrated at the factory, providing characteristics
consistent with those of CRT displays.
The colorimetry of an LCD display, by nature, can exhibit
inaccurate R, G, B color coordinates and unbalanced R, G, B
gamma curves, which can make precise color matching
between multiple monitors a challenge. These are also the
primary reasons why LCD color tone can slightly differ from
CRT tone.
The LMD-2450W and LMD-2050W solve this problem by
precisely calibrating each LCD panel's light output so that the
R, G, B color coordinates are virtually the same as those of a
CRT monitor. A second calibration is further applied so that
white balance is maintained at a consistent color temperature
throughout all grayscale levels. The result of these precise
calibrations is color reproduction reminiscent of Sony CRT
displays.

CIE Color Coordinates

The CIE u' v' chart is used to evaluate the light output of display
devices. In this diagram, the raw light output of a Sony LCD
panel is compared with that of a Sony CRT. The triangular areas
show their different color reproduction capabilities (Color Space).
The green and red dots indicate the color of light output from a
Sony LCD panel and from a Sony CRT for certain RGB input
signals. Note that the same light color is not obtained for the
same video input. The ChromaTRU process, on the other hand,
reproduces consistent light output extremely close to that of a CRT.

Sophisticated I/P Conversion

The LMD-2450W and LMD-2050W use a motion adaptive I/P
conversion process to achieve conversion results that are
optimized to the picture content - whether it is static or
dynamic. Highly accurate I/P conversion is provided regardless
of signal resolution, for example, whether the input is HD or SD.

Excellent Brightness and Contrast

The LMD-2450W and LMD-2050W both provide
high-brightness, high-contrast images by utilizing super-wide
aperture LCD panels.

Extremely Wide Viewing Angle

The LMD-2450W and LMD-2050W offer the most stable
images within the LUMA Series when viewed from various
angles. They offer a wide viewing angle of 178 degrees,
horizontally and vertically, with virtually no reduction in
picture contrast, color saturation, and hue shift. This allows
precise images to be clearly viewed from various positions and
angles – a critical requirement in professional video monitoring.

Wide Viewing Angle

The LCD panels used in the handheld type LUMA monitors
have a wide viewing angle of 170 degrees, both horizontally
and vertically, with minimal reduction in picture contrast.

AR (anti-reflection) Coated Protection Panel

The handheld type LUMA monitors use robust AR-coated
protection layers, which minimize the chance of their panels
being scratched during transportation – an extremely important
criteria for use in the field or in any mobile application. The AR
coating additionally has two unique characteristics: it provides a
high transmission rate of the internal light source to keep the
picture as bright as possible, and it keeps reflection from
ambient light to a minimum. As a result, when used in bright
lighting conditions, high contrast is still maintained even in dark
areas of the picture.

Operational Convenience

ENG Kit VF-509

The handheld type LUMA monitors are a strategic choice for
use in ENG and EFP field operations. When compared to CRT
displays, the picture contrast of these monitors is affected less
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.

Low Power Consumption

Compared to conventional CRT multiple monitors, multi­display type LUMA monitors offer drastic reductions in power
consumption and room-cooling requirements. This is a huge
bonus in applications where power consumption is critical,
such as OB van installations.

Slim and Light

Thanks to their thin and lightweight designs, the multi-display type
LUMA monitors are ideal for installations where space is limited.

All multi-display type LUMA monitors are mountable on a
19-inch EIA standard rack. For viewing convenience, the
LMD-7220W and LMD-5320 offer a 5-step tilt mechanism,
