ColorEdge Features
 
Factory Adjustment of Gamma
   
10-bit Gamma Correction ImageNot only are the ColorEdge models designed for accurate color reproduction, but each unit is adjusted at the factory to a gamma value of 2.2. This is accomplished by measuring the R, G and B gamma values from 0-255, then using the monitor's 10-bit Look-Up Table (LUT) with its 1,021-tone palette to select the 256 most appropriate tones to achieve the 2.2 value. Users can also set their own values from 1.0 to 2.6 in 0.1 increments with the ColorNavigator 3 software. This is important because accurate, non-fluctuating 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.
  Accurate Color Temperature
 
Another important factor in achieving accurate, natural colors, especially for midtones, is setting the proper color temperature for white (white point). ColorEdge monitors are exceptionally versatile in this regard, providing color temperature adjustment from 4,000K to 10,000K in 500K increments (including 9,300K). This wide range ensures that users can achieve the optimum color temperature for any type of work, such as "paper white" for DTP.
  10-Bit Processing for Smoother Gradation of Color
 
This valuable feature assures the ColorEdge CG21, CG19, and CG18 produce smoother gradations of color than was possible before. It accomplishes this by automatically converting 8-bit data (256 gradations) received from the computer to 10-bit (1021 gradations) and then reassigning this data back to 8-bit with the ideal gamma values. For color-rich images, this means that even subtle mid-tones are displayed correctly.

  Auto Brightness Control
 
Drift Correction ImageThis EIZO-patented circuit stabilizes brightness soon after startup or coming out of power save mode. Additionally, this circuit eliminates brightness fluctuation by detecting changes in the surrounding backlight temperatures and automatically adjusting the divergence to the brightness default setting or user-defined level.
