27” ColorEdge CS2731
The wide gamut, 16-bit look-up-table and precise factory calibration of the CS2731 allows you to enjoy an unadulterated look at your image files in creative workflows requiring high colour accuracy. Convenient functionalities such as monitor signal transmission, rapid data transfer and the power supply feature for connected devices are enabled with just one USB-C port.
Outstandingly sharp image quality
The screen has an impressive top resolution (2560 x 1440), a very good contrast ratio of 1000:1 and a brightness of 350 cd/m2. For example, you can edit graphics and images down to the pixel. As an added benefit, text contours are clear and precise. The LCD panel with the IPS (Wide Gamut) panel allows for a viewing angle of 178 degrees. Ensuring that hue and contrast remain stable for the viewer.
Wide gamut – gamut for saturated colours
A monitor with the widest possible gamut is needed so that the entire colour spectrum of modern cameras can be used. Only then is it possible to visually assess and edit the saturated hues contained in the file. Therefore, the IPS panel of the ColorEdge CS2731 covers, for example, the wide AdobeRGB photo gamut to 99% as well as the ISO-Coated V2 CMYK print gamut. As a result, the full colour spectrum of modern cameras is displayed unaltered and without gaps. Moreover, a precise simulation of the print result in the soft-proofing view is guaranteed.
Smooth and fluid transitions and gradients thanks to 16-bit LUT and 10-bit mode
The LUT (look-up-table) on the CS2731 employs internal calculations with 16 bits for an extremely high colour depth and outputs the signals with up to 10 bits. This provides billions of hues for calculating the precise monitor display, effectively preventing display errors caused by the monitor such as banding or clipping, which can result in tonal breaks in gradients or unnecessary colours in greyscale. Even fine nuances and structures in dark or highly saturated areas of the image can be displayed in a differentiated and detailed manner.
Ready to use right out of the box – perfect settings right from the factory
Every ColorEdge CS2731 is individually measured and optimally configured in the factory, enabling it to be used immediately after it has been unboxed. To this end, the gamma curves for the red, green and blue channels are closely checked and corrected, if necessary. This unique EIZO factory calibration enables the user to start using the monitor with the preset gamut range right out of the box. This painstaking calibration at the factory ensures that the user can quickly recalibrate the monitor if needed using ColorNavigator.
Digital Uniformity Equalizer – perfect rendering across the entire screen
Each individual monitor panel is precisely measured over the entire surface at the EIZO factory. Any inhomogeneities in brightness and unnecessary colour are detected and removed. This process (Digital Uniformity Equalizer) guarantees that identical colours always look the same over the entire service life of the monitor, no matter where they are displayed. Only in this way is precise image processing and retouching possible.
Fast, easy and lossless hardware calibration without any compromises
It is essential that the monitor is regularly calibrated to ensure that it always displays the same file in the same way over its entire service life. To do so, all ColorEdge monitors employ lossless hardware calibration. Unlike software calibration, which always involves the risk of loss of display quality, hardware calibration not only creates an adjustment profile for the graphics board but also calibrates the monitor’s LUT (look-up-table).
EIZO microchip for optimised colour reproduction
The CS2731 has a high-quality microchip (ASIC, Application-Specific Integrated Circuit), which EIZO developed especially for the special requirements involved in work demanding high colour accuracy. This microchip is the brain of a ColorEdge as it guarantees the precise, uniform and constant image display that is the hallmark of EIZO.
Variety of ports
A growing number of creative professionals are using their portable computers not just while they are on the go. A powerful laptop is often their only computer, which is why more and more of them want to integrate their portable computer into their office at home or at work. EIZO is addressing this trend with the new ColorEdge graphics monitors.
