LMD-51TD Series
Variety of 3D/2D display functions
There is a variety of convenient 3D production features*
assignable to function keys on the front panel of the LMD-4251TD and LMD-2451TD, and can also be assigned to an external
remote control unit. Plus and minus menu switches ("+" and "-") are also assignable to the parallel remote.*
function is assigned to the front panel buttons or parallel remote, locations that are very convenient for users who frequently
switch between 2D and 3D mode during 3D production work.
*1 These functions work when the optional BKM-250TG 3G-SDI input adaptor is installed.
*2 This function will be available from V1.10, and requires a BKM-250TG serial number of 740001 or higher.
Disparity simulation [3D mode]
Either the left or right signal phase (or both
phases) of a 3D image can be shifted
horizontally. In this way, users can simulate
the amount of 3D image parallax.

Difference display
*4
This function displays the difference
between the luminance signal of the
left (L) and right (R) images of the
3D signal. This function is useful for
checking the amount of parallax.
Grid display
*4
The primary function is to display arbitrary
multiple numbers of vertical lines for users
to review the overall parallax of captured
images. Users can set the numbers of
vertical lines at 0.1% (2-pixel) pitch. In
addition, this function provides display
of horizontal lines, which helps users to
set 3D cameras on a rig system.
Vertical lines Vertical and horizontal lines
Examples of grid display
* Number of vertical lines can be set variable with 0.1% (2-pixel) pitch.
Disparity ruler
*4
This function works to precisely measure
disparity by setting L-line and R-line to L/R
objects respectively on the screen. The
amount of disparity can be measured
both in 0.1% steps and 2-pixel pitch steps.
L-line R-line

*1 3G-SDI (level-B) or HD-SDI (dual-stream or side-by-side) signals are input via the BKM-250TG input adaptor.
*2 Either 3G-SDI (level-B) or dual-stream HD-SDI signals are input via the BKM-250TG input adaptor.
*3 Dual-stream HD-SDI signals are input via the BKM-250TG input adaptor.
*4 This function will be available from V1.10, and requires a BKM-250TG serial number of 740001 or higher.

Left and right input signals are
displayed in a grid pattern on screen
– divided into 9 blocks vertically and
16 blocks horizontally. By comparing
adjacent images, users can recognize
a difference in brightness and color
setting of the left and right images.

L/R switch [2D mode]
Left and right signals can be swapped
in a moment without inserting black
frames, simply by manually pushing
a function key. This instant-swap
capability enables users to compare
whole images and check for any sense
of incongruity or for unnatural images.
Automatic sequential mode is also
available.*

3D/2D color matching function
(3D offset adjustment)
In 3D mode, this function offsets the
white balance of a 3D image. This
enables closer image color matching
between a 3D image viewed through
3D glasses and a 2D image when the
viewer takes off their 3D glasses.

Flip H [3D mode]
*1
The Flip H function turns the reversed
image to the normal view. This is helpful
because the user can refer directly to
the rig camera, achieving a simple and
cost-saving system.
As illustrated below, when a delay in
signal processing occurs, both the left
and right signals synchronize to the
delayed signal.
