BVM-E171

Sony BVM E171 16.5" TRIMASTER EL OLED Critical Reference Monitor from Sony features a wide viewing angle for critical picture evaluation in the studio and on-set for professional applications such as color grading, high-end editing, broadcasting and scientific research. Sony's leading edge Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED) technology and signal processing technology ensures high performance with the BVM-E171. It allows several people to evaluate the image with accuracy at the same time, increasing the monitor's versatility in top end monitoring solutions.

Technology
Top Emission technology enhances OLED's benefits to deliver outstanding black performance, a quick response time with virtually no motion blur, and a wide color gamut. A 12-bit output digital signal processing engine provides a non-linear cubic conversion color-management system that delivers precise color reproduction, picture uniformity, gamma performance, and picture quality consistency.

Flicker Free Mode
The TRIMASTER EL OLED panel's quick response and scan-driving performance delivers remarkable picture quality with virtually no motion blur. However, there is a possibility that flicker is just visible especially when a lower frequency signal is displayed (24p, 24PsF, and 50i). To remove visible flicker, the BVM E171 is equipped with flicker-free mode.

DC Operation
The BVM E171 can be DC operated. This feature gives more flexibility and mobility to users who want the larger size screen for the on-set application.

Support for 4K Production
The BVM E171 is an HD monitor that conforms to ITU-R BT.709 color space. Responding to an increase of the demand of using an HD monitor in a 4K production, the monitor supports ITU-R BT.2020 color space and transfer matrix.

Accepts Computer Signals via HDMI
The BVM E171 accepts various computer signals input up to 1920 x 1080 through its HDMI connector. It is also equipped with Digital Cinema 2048 x 1080 signals.

Picture Performance
Sony TRIMASTER EL technology combines the ultimate performance of Sony OLED display with the TRIMASTER technology to provide the highest level of picture performance:

Wide viewing angle
Accurate Black Reproduction
High purity and accurate color reproduction
Quick response time with virtually no motion blur
Very high contrast ratio

Sony 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 E171 monitor can accept almost any SD or HD video format, such as analog composite video, HDMI and SDI, and variable computer signals through HDMI.

Auto White Balance
The color temperature and white balance of BVM Series monitors can be automatically adjusted by the Auto White Balance function using specified color temperature probes, such as:
