User manual EIZO COLOREDGE CG220

[. . . ] When all devices share a common color space, colors match at every stage of production; knowing that color is being accurately displayed naturally improves efficiency. A wide-gamut ColorEdge monitor at the center of a system using Adobe RGB as the common color space is the ideal way to ensure accurate color reproduction across all digital platforms. Such a color management environment fully supports soft proofing at every step of production, from initial photography to final printing.

This is accomplished by measuring the R, G, and B gamma values from 0 ­ 255, then using the monitor's 12-bit look-up table (LUT) to select the 256 most appropriate tones to achieve the desired value. [. . . ] This is accomplished by measuring the R, G, and B gamma values from 0 ­ 255, then using the monitor's 12-bit look-up table (LUT) to select the 256 most appropriate tones to achieve the desired value. This is important because accurate, nonfluctuating gamma values are necessary for the proper display of color. If colors are not based on specific values and cannot be adjusted, images will be displayed differently by different monitors. ColorEdge monitors provide both precision and consistency, so graphics professionals can be sure that the final product will look exactly the way they want it to. In fact, each monitor comes with an adjustment certificate that certifies the measurement results of the gamma value. Brightness and Color Uniformity with DUE Fluctuations in brightness and chroma on different parts of the screen are a common trait of LCD monitors. To counteract this, EIZO incorporates a Digital Uniformity Equalizer (DUE) in all ColorEdge monitors. DUE utilizes the monitor's 12-bit look-up table (LUT) with an extensive palette of 4, 081 grayscale tones for each R, G, and B, and internal calculation accuracy of 16 bits to ensure a Delta-E difference of 3 or less across the screen when the monitor leaves the factory. * Each monitor adjusted individually at the factory. Actual adjustment is performed in a darkroom. ) Gamma Correction ON-SCREEN IMAGE Color Seepage Tonality Breakup Smooth Grayscale Display With Digital Uniformity Compensation Without Digital Uniformity Compensation GAMMA CURVE Color-separated image with Delta-E*ab distribution across the screen of the ColorEdge CG221 (gray level 128 measured) *Delta-E difference for the CG303W is 5 or less along the screen perimeter. Brightness Brightness Ideal Gamma Curve Ideal Gamma Curve Short- and Long-Term Brightness Stabilization All models come with a brightness drift correction circuit that stabilizes the monitor's brightness level right after starting up as well as a backlight brightness sensor that detects and counteracts brightness changes in the florescent backlight that occur over time. Furthermore, the CG245W, CG243W, and CG223W incorporate a temperature sensor that prevents changes in color temperature which can be caused by fluctuations in the ambient temperature.

Preset Value Without Brightness Drift Correction 16-Bit Internal Processing In any color-critical work, the monitor's ability to produce black is a great differentiator. With most LCD monitors, the darkest area of the screen -- or black level -- is usually too bright. ColorNavigator lets you easily adjust hue and saturation for all six primary and secondary colors (RGB and CMY), as well as white balance, brightness, black level and gamma, to achieve the closest possible visual match. For confirmation of calibration results or to achieve more accurate manual adjustments, a test pattern screen with a grayscale ramp, low tones, high tones and gamma values can be displayed. Paper White Measurement ColorNavigator offers a paper white measurement function for color matching between the image on your monitor and the image on your printouts. By measuring the white of the paper to be used for printing, ColorNavigator will automatically set the target values for brightness and white point accordingly.

With current LCD technology, a panel may contain a limited number of missing or flickering pixels. Accessories Monitor Hoods Bundled with all models, EIZO's monitor hoods include a sliding top cover so they can remain in place when the monitor is calibrated. With the CG245W, the hood can be used in portrait mode, too. 6 Panel Protectors These protection sheets are easy to place over the screen surface, allow a minimum of 87% light transmission, and prevent dust and scratches.
