EIZO HDR Technology

EIZO's flagship HDR reference monitor is the first monitor to overcome the severe drawbacks of other HDR technologies available to the market. Building further upon this technology, the ColorEdge PROMINENCE CG3146 is the first true HDR reference monitor in the world to incorporate a built-in calibration sensor for ensuring the ultimate color-accurate and uniform HDR viewing environment. ColorEdge PROMINENCE monitors achieve 1000 cd/m2 brightness and 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio, making it ideal for color grading in the HDR workflow.

Product information

In addition to the ColorEdge PROMINENCE CG3146, EIZO offers HLG (hybrid log-gamma) and PQ (perceptual quantization) curves for many current CG Series monitors. The optimized gamma curves render images to appear more true to how the human eye perceives the real world compared to SDR (Standard Dynamic Range).

Vivid Colors Reproduced to Industry Standards

The wide color gamut of the ColorEdge CG Series faithfully reproduces almost the entire DCI-P3 standard used in digital cinema. It also covers 100% of the Rec. 709, EBU, and SMPTE-C standards and 99% of Adobe® RGB. ColorEdge 4K monitors also include a preset mode for viewing Rec. 2020 contents that is easily accessible via a button on the front of the monitor.

Not applicable to the CG2730 or CG2420.

Convenience and Performance

In compliance with the DCI standards, most ColorEdge CG Series monitors offer a high contrast ratio of 1500:1* for producing true blacks that are otherwise difficult to display on a typical LCD monitor.

When viewing the screen from an angle in a dimly lit room, dark tones typically appear washed out due to the display characteristics of LCD backlights. The CG Series is equipped with a film which allows tones to retain their depth even when viewed from an angle. The CG Series also come with backlit control buttons to improve visibility in dark studio environments.

* Typical value when DUE Priority is set to "Brightness".
