Ikegami has released two additions to its range of broadcast-quality monitors: the 24in HLM-2460WA and 18.5in HLM-1860WR.

Gisbert Hochguertel, Ikegami Europe Product Specialist, said: “Both monitors are optimised for 1920x1080 HD, which continues to be the most popular resolution for routine broadcast production and transmission.”

The HLM-2460WA has a 1920x1200-native pixel IPS LCD panel with 1,800:1 contrast ratio and peak brightness of 400 nits. It is designed for use in broadcast environments such as edit suites where a computer-friendly WUXGA display resolution is preferred, and for integration into monitor walls.

Features include picture-in-picture and side-by-side video, preset and operator-configurable onscreen markers, as well as red/green/yellow tally. Dynamic and static under-monitor displays are provided, plus closed caption and vertical interval timecode display. There are also user-selectable test signals, waveform monitoring and vectorscope, image and test signal mix, dot-by-dot display, plus 2x and 4x zoom.

Audio capabilities include SDI audio de-embedding, eight-channel audio level metering and 5.1 channel surround-sound down-mix. Optional automatic calibration software ensures consistent and accurate colour reproduction.

The HLM-1860WR is a larger 18.5in IPS LCD panel than its HLM-1760WR predecessor within the same 19in rack-width 7U chassis. The display has 1,000:1 contrast and 500-nits peak brightness, for use outdoors.
