Certified under FOGRA’s ‘Monitor PreCert’ Class A criteria, the LCD monitor features a ‘temperature sensor’ that suppresses fluctuations caused by changes in ambient temperatures and start-up/power-save modes, in order to preserve colour accuracy.

Making its debut at PacPrint in May this year, the monitor supports a colour gamut of 98% of Adobe RGB colour space and 100% of broadcast video, with a native resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels in the 16:10 aspect ratio. The CG243W also offers 178 degree horizontal and vertical viewing angles, “enabling clear viewing of images from any position in a collaborative or client-to-creative meeting environment”.

Eizo Oceania managing director Matthew Bauer describes the CG243W as ” a top-end all-round performance monitor”.

“Today, many creative professionals are working in a cross-media environment; they can be designing a colour-critical brochure one day, and editing Flash animations or a video the next,” Bauer said. “The new Eizo ColorEdge CG243W monitor has many advanced features that make it the ideal choice for still or moving images, or both.”

“One such advancement is that the CG243W hosts its own hardware calibration, rather than relying on the computer’s graphics card. The on-board ColorNavigator software works with measuring devices and a 3D (RGB cubic) monitor-based 12-bit look-up table, to ensure that the monitor ‘knows’ it is within calibration specifications and nothing is lost in translation between the PC and monitor.”
