ColorEdge CG

For the creative professional

Professional photographers and image makers all over the world have been using EIZO ColorEdge CG monitors for years. The CG series is split into three sections: 4k Definition, High Definition and HDR, so you’ve got all the technology you need to really see the detail in your work. That technology improves your ability to create accurate living, breathing colour.

EIZO's 4K monitors ensure extraordinary colour accuracy, high-contrast and consistent images. Its high resolution 4K monitors will support you in all your precision work right down to the slightest detail. 4K resolution gives twice the number of pixels in both height and width of a standard full HD monitor. This quadruples the number of pixels to over 8 million.

Colour

See the world in

1 billion colours

A 10-bit colour representation means you can enjoy a huge gamut of one billion colours, which is 64 times as many colours as the 8-bit representation. This means finer colour gradients and smaller spaces between adjacent colours even though a larger than usual colour space is used.

Gamut

A wider gamut means

vivid colour on-screen and with fewer surprises in print

  • The full colour spectrum
  • Most monitors only cover the sRGB range
  • ... which doesn’t cover the full CMYK gamut
  • ColorEdge covers a much wider gamut, which includes the CMYK gamut, as shown here

    Suitable for softproofing

    Most of the ColorEdge range fulfils strict softproof requirements based on the draft ISO/CD 12646 standard. Fogra Forschungsgesellschaft Druck e.V. came to that conclusion in the course of testing the monitor. The CG319X was therefore awarded the Fogra "FograCert Softproof Monitor" seal of quality. You will therefore be working on a tested, colour-proof monitor.

    A microchip for detailed work

    All ColorEdge monitors have a chip built inside which has been specifically developed by EIZO Japan for colour critical work.

    Flicker Free Working

    Our monitors are flicker free even at high contrasts, so your eyes tire less easily and can work on your images for longer.

    5-year warranty

    We designed our monitors to last. No loss of colour, no loss of detail. That’s why they come with a 5 year warranty as standard.

    Made in Japan for creatives

    We take pride in our Japanese heritage, bringing the traditions of precision, an eye for detail and crafted beauty to our monitors.

    True Blacks

    When it comes
    to true blacks

    Honesty is the
    best policy

    Our monitors display black as black.
    Our EIZO ColorEdge PROMINENCE CG3145 HDR monitor shows not grey, not nearly black, but black. Rich, dark, intense and accurate. A typical LCD monitor often displays blacks as pale or faded but EIZO ColorEdge monitors are equipped with a film that helps display an almost true black in every image.

    Uniformity

    Colour uniformity

    right across the screen

    Our colour tones appear the same at all points of the screen, without the brightness fluctuations that you get with a typical LCD. With ColorEdge CG, you can see perfect colour purity no matter where on the screen you view an image, an absolute must for image retouching and colour grading.


    Digital Uniformity Equaliser (DUE)

    Homogeneous luminance distribution and good colour purity are key to achieving very accurate image rendering. The Digital Uniformity Equaliser (DUE) circuit takes care of this. It automatically corrects non-uniformities in terms of luminance and chrominance for all tone values across the entire image area – pixel by pixel.

    Calibration

    In-built intelligence

    making sense
    of calibration

    ColorEdge CG monitors come with a built-in calibration sensor to help you to achieve maximum colour accuracy. The sensor is perfectly matched to the monitor and correlates the entire image so you see a consistent result. The calibration sequence can be set to run automatically, even when your computer is turned off.

    LUTs

    3D LUTs

    More control
    to the colourist

    RGB meets XYZ
    When a LUT is applied it will isolate the RGB input and output each of them with a new value. 1D LUT alterations don’t allow the interaction between R, G and B, which is why ColorEdge CG has 3D LUTs to control every colour tone on the monitor and make sure that each one is perfect.

    Professional hardware
    and smart software

    as standard

    • Anti-glare matt finish

      Our anti-glare screens take away glare and are ideal for group reviewing - all you see is the work and not your reflection.
    • In-built thermometer

      Our in-built thermometer means your colours never change with the temperature of the room – something that can happen on lots of other monitors.
    • Removable hoods for reduced glare

      Keeping everything on your screen consistent, clear and accurate without the interference of ambient light.
    • Tilt

      Colour Management Software

      At EIZO, we have developed a colour software package known as ColorNavigator which calibrates our monitors to perfection. But if you don’t want to go through the set up stages, the range ships with presets installed as standard that are then maintained by our ColorNavigator 7 software. If you’re an advanced user and want to make adjustments to brightness, gamma or white point you can do that too.
