Product description Sony's BVM-F170 16.5" Full HD Broadcast OLED Monitor delivers outstanding black performance, a quick response with virtually no motion blur, and a wide color gamut ensuring outstanding performance for reference monitoring applications in the broadcast industry.With a micro-cavity structure, the BVM-F170 uses an optical resonance effect in combination with color filters to enhance color purity and improve light emission. Using this combination, it is possible to minimize ambient color reflection and achieve deep color reproduction without degradation. It supports color standards such as ITU-R BT.709, EBU, and SMPTE-C.The BVM-F170 monitor can accept almost any SD or HD video format, both analogue and digital, and variable computer signals up to 1920 × 1080. In addition to the standard inputs, four option board slots are offered to configure this monitor according to different user needs.Lastly, the monitor can accept up to four optional video input boards simultaneously. Available formats include analog, composite, Y/C, components, RGB and digital 3G/HD/SD SDI. - Superb Picture Performance
- Sony Trimaster EL technology combines the ultimate performance of Sony OLED display with the highly sophisticated Trimaster technology to provide the highest level of picture performance:
Accurate black reproduction High purity and accurate color reproduction Quick response with virtually no motion blur High contrast performance - Super Top Emission Technology
- Sony's super top emission technology has a micro-cavity structure which incorporates color filters. The micro-cavity structure uses an optical resonance effect to enhance color purity and improve light emission efficiency. In addition, the color filter of each RGB further enhances the color purity of emitted light, and reduces ambient light reflection
- Ultimate Display Engine
- High precision signal processing engine has been developed to fulfill the reference monitor criteria and is optimized to maximize OLED panel performance. This engine incorporates 12-bit output accuracy at each process, and provides both a high quality I/P conversion algorithm and a highly accurate color management system
- Multi-Format Signal Support
- The BVM-F170 monitor can accept almost any SD or HD video format, both analogue and digital, and variable computer signals up to 1920 x 1080. In addition to the standard inputs, four option board slots are offered to configure this monitor according to different user needs
- Versatile Video Inputs
- This monitor is equipped as standard with two 3G/HD/SD-SDI inputs, an HDMI (with HDCP) input and a Displayport for future expansion. In addition, four option ports are available. DisplayPort input will be supported from monitor software version 1.1 or later
- Four Slots for Optional Video Input Decoders
- The monitor can accept up to four optional video input boards simultaneously. Available formats include analog, composite, Y/C, components, RGB and digital 3G/HD/SD SDI
- 3D Signal Analyzing Functions (3D Signal Input, 2D Display)
- By installing the optional BKM-250TG 3G/HD-SDI input adapter, the BVM-F250 can support a variety of 3D signal analyzes. The 3D signals are displayed in 2D mode.
Difference display Checkerboard display L/R switch display Horopter check display Flip H display - Auto White Balance
- The color temperature and white balance can be automatically adjusted by the auto white balance function using specified color temperature probes, such as the Konica Minolta CA-210, CS-200, DK-Technologies PM5639/06, and X-Rite i1 (Eye-One) Pro
- High Quality I/P Conversion Technology
- The BVM-F170 monitor uses a sophisticated I/P conversion technique that keeps artifacts that are often seen in flat panel displays to a minimum such as edge jaggedness, conversion errors, etc
- Low Video Delay
- The BVM-F170 display engine ensures a picture delay that is less than one field
- Panel Calibration
- Every BVM-F170 monitor is carefully calibrated at the factory on an individual basis, providing a high level of accuracy and stability for characteristics such as gamma and uniformity
- Color Feedback System
- Using a color feedback system, the BVM-F170 monitor achieves the stability required for broadcast critical monitoring applications
- Interlaced Display Mode
- Faithfully reproduces interlaced signals, emulating CRT monitors
- Picture and Picture Mode
- Two images can be displayed Side by Side to provide users with enhanced operational flexibility
- Pixel Zoom Mode
- A selected area of the displayed picture can be enlarged on a pixel basis, up to eight times in size both vertically and horizontally
- HD Frame Capture Mode
- The HD frame capture function of the BVM-F170 allows a picture frame from the 3G-SDI and HD-SDI input to be captured and saved as a picture file on a memory stick media
- Separate Control Unit with Memory Stick Slot
- A separate control unit BKM-16R is available for the BVM-F170. It is equipped with a memory stick socket enables users to download and save all monitor set-ups such as input channel configuration, control preset adjustments, white balance settings and maintenance parameters
- Centralized Monitor Wall Control
- Multiple monitors can be easily managed by a single control unit BKM-16R via an Ethernet connection
