21.5-INCH Broadcast Monitor

21.5-INCH Broadcast Monitor

The CS-21.5iBM is a top-tier FHD HDR broadcast monitor equipped with integrated 3D LUT color calibration technology. It offers selectable color spaces such as REC709, DCI-P3, Rec 2020, and User-defined options, along with support for importing third-party LUT files. The monitor comes with a range of features including Waveform, Vectors, Pixel Measurement, Darkness Check, and more. Tailored for high-end broadcasting, color grading, and post-production applications, the CS-21.5iBM is a sophisticated solution for professionals in the field. It supports FHD, HDR, and 3G-SDI, and its HDR display supports PQ and HLG.

Features

  • Calytrix Solutions’ 4K, 8K, and iBM series support HDR display, offering adjustable modes like PQ (ST2084) and HLG with Rec 2020 color gamut. This enhances dynamic range and provides exceptionally high picture quality.

  • The Part Zoom In function allows users to zoom in on any part of the picture for clearer viewing and improved focus. Darkness Check enhances brightness and contrast in dark areas, revealing more shadow details in the input signal and ensuring comprehensive shadow detail verification.

  • PIP (Picture-in-Picture) and PBP (Picture-by-Picture) are supported, enabling one SDI signal to be displayed alongside another (Video, Component, HDMI, DVI, or VGA) with the flexibility to swap between the two images freely.

  • The Horizontal Picture Flip function facilitates a negative image, particularly useful in studios and virtual studios for weather forecasts, news, and other programs.

  • Real-time readouts of Y&RGB values can be obtained by selecting any single pixel or block of pixels using a movable cross-hair. This function aids in comparing Y&RGB measurement values of any two points in the input signals.

  • Calytrix Solutions monitors are compatible with Color Space and Calman calibration software, utilizing the K10-A probe for precise color or universal colorimeters such as CA210, CA310, CS200, CR100, CR250, and X-Rite i1 Display.

  • Both SDI and HDMI support Waveform, Vector scope, and Histogram, which can be displayed simultaneously on screen. The Waveform Alarm marks overexposed areas in red when luminance exceeds the preset value.

  • Exposure of the image is checked by displaying colors (blue, cyan, green, yellow, orange, and red) in turn to show luminance values from darkest to brightest, facilitating proper exposure without external test equipment.

  • Focus Assist marks sharp edges with red, aiding the camera operator in achieving the sharpest possible picture.

  • Zebra stripes display overexposed areas, helping the camera operator control luminance to avoid overexposure.

  • The LUT loading function allows users to load two different 3D LUT files based on their color needs, simplifying DIT, post-production, and grading work for improved workflow efficiency.

  • Calytrix Solutions’ 4K, 8K, and iBM series support various EOTF curve conversions applicable to the broadcast industry and digital film standards, offering presets for camera logs and gamma curve selections to achieve the perfect combination with the camera system.
