Ikegami Announces HDR Support Option for HLM-60 Monitors

Ikegami, a leader in HD and UHD cameras and production equipment for television content creators and broadcasters, announces that High Dynamic Range support is now available as an option for its HLM-60 monitor series.

The new option includes EOTF tables for Hybrid Log Gamma (HLG) and S-Log3 in addition to conventional gamma. Existing monitors in the HLM-60 series can be upgraded with the new option retrospectively.

The HLM-60 series includes models HLM-2460W, HLM-1760WR and HLM-960WR.

Ikegami's HLM-2460W is a 24-inch Full-HD monitor with a 1920×1200 pixel 10-bit resolution LCD panel. It offers 400 candela per square metre brightness, very narrow front-to-back dimensions, light weight and low power consumption. Multi-format SDI, 3G-SDI, HDMI, Ethernet and VBS inputs are provided as standard. The HLM-2460W incorporates a full 1920x1080 pixel high brightness and high contrast LCD panel. This has a wide viewing angle, fast motion response, and high-quality colour reproduction, achieving real pixel allocation without resizing. The monitor's gradation characteristics make it ideal for a wide range of broadcast applications, including use in monitor walls.

A smaller version of the HLM-2460W with similar features, the HLM-1760WR monitor has a 17-inch Full-HD 1920×1080 pixel 450 candela per square metre 10-bit resolution LCD panel.

The Ikegami HLM-960WR is a highly compact multi-format LCD monitor with a 9-inch Full-HD 1920×1080 pixel 400 candela per square metre 8-bit resolution LCD panel. This model offers very narrow front-to-back dimensions, light weight, AC or DC operation and low power consumption. An optional battery bracket is available. A USB connector on the front panel allows setup file storage and recall as well as control-menu navigation via a plug-in pointing device.
