Features - Sony Trimaster PVM-L3200 Operation Manual

Features

The PVM-L3200 is 32-inch LCD Video Monitor. This is
suitable for television stations or video production houses,
where precise image reproduction is required.
The PVM-L3200 features flat panel and "TRIMASTER*",
which is a new technology developed for three elements,
"accurate color reproduction", "precision imaging" and
"quality picture consistency", that are in demand for
professional use. "TRIMASTER" decreases the viewing
difference that occurs due to the individuality of each
panel. Also, the PVM-L3200 realizes the high picture
quality and high-trust by the color management system
with its wide color gamut device, high-resolution/precise
gradation display, animation improvement technology and
signal processing of high accuracy/calibration/feedback
system.

32-inch LCD panel developed for the PVM
The 32-inch (31.55 inch) LCD panel was developed for the
PVM-L3200 and supports the full HD signal.
It offers a 10-bit driver, high-speed response, high
resolution and high color gradation.
12-bit precision display engine for professional
use
The panel is equipped with a unique signal process engine
developed for the professional use monitor. This engine
incorporates 12-bit output accuracy at each process, and
provides a high-quality I/P conversion algorithm, scaling
processing, panel driving and a highly accurate color
management system.
Multi color space
A color management system which uses the unique 3D
LUT (Look Up Table) reproduces the color space that
complies with the broadcast standard ITU-R BT.709, EBU
and SMPTE-C accurately.
High-quality I/P conversion processing
A high-quality picture near the original one, in which
jagged lines and conversion errors are decreased by
detecting the feature of the picture inside the subdivided
block and processing properly, is reproduced.
The signal delay is decreased by judging the animation or
still picture from the past video signal.
Interlace display mode
The interlace signal is displayed as the interlace picture by
inserting the black line without I/P conversion processing.
A picture faithful to the original signal and with the same
feel as a CRT is gained.

HD frame capture function
The frame of the 3G/HD-SDI input signal is captured and
saved as a picture file in the "Memory Stick". This is used
to confirm the color tone and picture angle of the current
scene and recorded scene by using the multi display
(Picture&Picture) function.
* As the frame of the input signal is captured, the data and
marker set by the monitor is not reflected.
For the operation, see "Capturing the Picture of the HD
Signal (HD Frame Capture)" on page 88.
Multi display function
Two kinds of input signals are output on the monitor. Side
by Side mode is useful for adjusting the color or comparing
two pictures.
For the operation, see "Displaying Two Signals on One
Screen (Picture&Picture)" on page 85.
Pixel zoom function
As part of the picture is magnified up to 8 times without
scaling processing, this is convenient for confirming a
minute part of the signal.
For the operation, see "Magnifying the Picture (Pixel
Zoom)" on page 86.
Safe area marker and aspect marker functions
The monitor is equipped with two area markers and center
marker as the safe area marker and aspect marker for
confirming the picture angle.
