Features

The PVM-740 Professional Video Monitor is a 7.4 type
OLED panel monitor for broadcast or business use,
featuring a precise image and high performance.
This not only achieves high quality picture by the OLED
panel but is also small and lightweight, and accepts a
variety of input signals, making it useful in a variety of
applications, such as an indoor/outdoor shooting, live
production, editing, research and development.
Advantages of OLED panel technology
The OLED panel makes use of an organic material,
which emits light when an electric current is applied.
Being self-emitting, the strength of luminescence can be
controlled by the amount of electric current. This brings
about the following three features:
Quick motion picture response:
The luminescent state of the OLED panel can be
changed instantaneously by changing the current flow in
the organic material. This enables a quick motion
picture response and production of images with minimal
blurring and ghosting. Furthermore, performance for
shooting on location is not influenced by changes in
environmental temperature.
High contrast and wide dynamic range:
The OLED panel does not emit light when black signal
is applied to the monitor, enabling a pure black screen to
be displayed. Furthermore, thanks to high peak
brightness the panel impressively displays brilliance and
clarity of various sparkling images, such as stars in a
night sky twinkling, night illuminations winking or
glass glittering, etc.
Rich color reproduction:
An OLED panel's self-luminescence also allows for
great color reproduction across the entire spectrum in
practically any shade or brightness.
Sony's Super Top Emission
The 7.4 type Quarter HD (960×540) OLED panel
features Sony's Super Top Emission structure. Unlike
the conventional bottom emission structure of TFT,
Sony's OLED panel can reproduce a crisper image due
to high brightness. Furthermore, a unique microcavity
structure makes RGB primary colors purer and deeper
by utilizing light resonance effects that magnify
optimum light wave lengths and diminish undesired
light wave lengths.
The panel's 10-bit driver enables smooth gradation of
color shading.

Color space function
Sony's "ChromaTru" technology brings to you
broadcast standard (ITU-R BT.709/EBU/SMPTE-C)
color space settings. You can contrast the images of the
monitors placed on monitor wall mount or rack mount.
Setting the color space function to off reproduces the
image in the original wide color space of OLED.
Proprietary feedback circuit
Automatic monitoring and feedback of emitted light and
color variation enables stable, long-term color
reproduction. This self-correcting feature minimizes the
need for user-adjustment of color settings.
Strong, slim and lightweight
The strong, slim, and lightweight design of the
aluminum die-cast chassis makes the monitor suitable
for use with rack mounts or as a portable monitor. This
reduces the weight burden on an outdoor broadcasting
van, and allows for a wider working space.
Use the light intercepting hood, connector protector and
carrying handle (optional Sony VF-510 Monitor ENG
Kit) for outdoor use.
Removable screen's protection plate
You can attach and detach the screen's protection plate
easily with the four screws.
Monitor stand
You can set the monitor display in 15° by using the
stand.
Two power systems
This unit can also be operated by DC 12V or its
exclusive AC adaptor. The AC adaptor can be mounted
on the rear of the monitor for easy use.
Camera focus
This function sharpens the edges of the image more than
the amount set by the upper limit of the aperture value in
the USER CONTROL menu.
This is convenient for focusing with the camera.
