ColorEdge CG210 Features |
 |
|
| |
|
|
Hardware-Based Portrait
Mode Support for Macintosh and Windows
|
| |
The
ColorEdge CG210 provides
built-in support for portrait
mode with the EIZO’s exclusive
ActiveRotation II technology.The
monitor includes a gravity
sensor, so it “knows” when it is
being rotated, and changes
between portrait and landscape
modes accordingly. Because it is
hardware-based, ActiveRotation
II does not absorb CPU power or
compromise graphics performance.
It supports Macintosh OS 9/X and
Windows 2000/XP platforms.
|

|
Graphics board
support for ActiveRotation II varies by manufacturer
and model. With some graphics boards, it may be
necessary to change the resolution on the PC side or
restart the computer after rotating the screen. For
details on graphics board support, please see the
compatibility page.

14-Bit Processing |
| |
The ColorEdge CG210 incorporates a powerful new EIZO-developed
ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) with
14-bit color processing capability (16 times more
accurate than 10-bit).
This allows a larger number of grayscale increments,
for grayscale rendering that is on a par with
high-end CRT monitors. The result is a much greater
degree of color detail, especially in dark areas and
shadows.
14-bit v. 10-bit Processing
With 10-bit processing, the error rate
is high in low tonal areas during calculation. With
14-bit processing, accuracy is significantly
improved resulting in fewer conversion errors.

Factory
Adjustment of Gamma |
| |
Not 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.

Auto
Brightness Control |
| |
 This
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. |
