Overview

17-inch Multi-format Widescreen LCD Reference Monitor

The BVM-L170 reference LCD monitor extends the multiple award winning technology of the BVM-L230 to a 17-inch screen size and is the first in the range that can be powered with 24V DC - allowing outdoor operation.

BVM-L Series reference LCD monitors supersede the acclaimed BVM-A series CRT models, heralding a new era in broadcast post-production, D-Cinema production, evaluation and mastering. LCD displays are replacing CRT monitors due to operational flexibility and lower overall ownership cost. The BVM-L170 is a state-of-the-art product that surpasses the performance of its CRT predecessors.

A new Sony technology - TRIMASTER -delivers accurate colour reproduction, precision imaging and absolute picture consistency. Sony designers achieved this through three key devices: a high-grade customised LCD panel, a new precision high-purity LED backlight system and a sophisticated display engine.

The high-grade customised LCD panel incorporates a 10-bit driver for smooth greyscale and colour transitions, and possesses a high frame rate capability allowing black frame insertion for much reduced motion blur.

The new Precision Backlight system utilises High Purity LEDs - these deliver wide reference-standard colour space, uniformity control and colour stability through the auto white-balance circuitry. The display engine uses two state-of-the-art ICs employing accurate 12-bit output processing - one dedicated to I/P conversion, producing the lowest possible artefact count, and one focussed on the highly accurate colour management system, delivering stability, consistency and precise standards emulation.

The BVM-L170 also benefits from picture & picture mode, pixel zoom function, HD Frame capture and 3G SDI for greater user flexibility.With its exceptional performance and the clear LCD advantages of light weight, reduced depth and installation flexibility, the BVM-L170 is a deserving successor to CRT broadcast reference monitors.

This product comes with PrimeSupport – fast, hassle-free repairs and a helpline offering expert technical advice. Which gives you the peace of mind that Sony is looking after your equipment, and your business.

Features

Innovative Full HD (1920x1080 pixels) LCD Panel

Delivers outstandingly crisp, high brightness and high contrast HD images in Native mode.

High-Purity Precision LED Backlight

Provides an exceptionally broad colour gamut for faithful colour display, as well as delivering precise picture uniformity and stability.

Accurate, Repeatable and Stable Colour Reproduction

The innovative precision LED backlight and Colour Management System deliver accurate and consistent colour temperature right across the greyscale range. Consequently, the monitor can emulate ITU-709, SMPTE-C, and EBU colour spaces with ease. It can also emulate D-Cinema colour gamut

Ultra High Precision Uniformity Correction

Achieved through the precision LED backlight.

Multi-Format Signal Support

The BVM-L170 is capable of displaying an exceptionally broad range of signal formats with an extremely high degree of colour accuracy. These include: composite video formats NTSC, PAL & SECAM, analogue components RGB & Y/C, and multi-format signals 480/60i, 480/60p, 575/50i, 575/50p, 720/50p, 720/60p, 1080/24p, 1080/24psf, 1080/25p, 1080/25psf, 1080/30p, 1080/30psf, 1080/50i, 1080/50p, 1080/60i, 1080/60p, 2048x1080 (2K)and PC signals from VGA to Full HD.

It also supports Dual-Link HD-SDI signals: 10-bit 4:4:4 RGB 1920x1080-50i/60i & 24/25/30p/psf; 10-bit 4:2:2 1920x1080-50p/60p, and 12-bit 4:4:4 XYZ 2048x1080-24p/24psf.

10-bit LCD Display Drivers

Delivers smooth, accurate colour and greyscale transitions for high quality video production.

3G SDI Input

The BVM-L170 has a 3G SDI input capability. On Sony's monitors, the 3G SDI interface is compliant with the SMPTE 425 standard, transmitting up to 4:2:2/10-bit 1080/60P video data using one SDI cable. This single-link system is known as a SD-SDI or HD-SDI system, but it can also handle both Dual-Link HD-SDI and 3G SDI video data with the use of Sony's 3G SDI interface. This 3G SDI interface enables BVM-L170 monitor to accept 50P and 60P video data. Where an upgrade to a Dual-Link HD-SDI system is necessary, this single-link 3G SDI system is also the ideal alternative.

12-bit Output Display Engine Processor

High-resolution processing contributes significantly to the superb picture performance.

Sophisticated Interlace to Progressive Algorithm

Accurate and fast processing with remarkably little video delay.

Interlace Display Mode

Faithfully reproduces interlaced signals, emulating CRT monitors.

Dual Image Processing

Image Side by Side, Wipe, Butterfly and Blend modes provide users with enhanced operational flexibility.

New Pixel Zoom Mode

Allows picture magnification up to 800% without scaling.

Black Frame Insertion Mode

Dramatically reduces motion blur - a problem common to many LCD monitors.

Auto White-Balance Function

The BVM-L170 can perform automatic colour temperature adjustments when connected to an external colour analyzer (such as those from Minolta, DK and X-Rite).

Separate Control unit with memory stick slot

The 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.

Four Slots for Optional Video Input Decoders

The monitor can accept up to four optional video input boards simultaneously. Available formats include analogue, composite, Y/C, components, RGB and digital SD & HD-SDI.

Centralised Monitor-Wall Control
