The BT-3DL2550 64.8 cm/25.5 inches 3D LCD Video Monitor is designed specifically for broadcast and other professional applications. Featuring a wide colour gamut and 10 bit 3D LUT (Look Up Table) for faithful colour reproduction, this HD monitor offers the image display performance that broadcast, movie production and other professional applications demand. It is also capable of displaying 3D images for viewing with 3D Polarized Eyewear. The BT-3DL2550 supports three types of 3D video input: simultaneous, line-by-line and side-by-side. A 3D video system is easily configured by combining the BT-3DL2550 with the AG-3DA1 Integrated Twin-Lens FULL HD 3D Camera Recorder and the AG-HMX100 3D Digital AV Mixer. The BT-3DL2550 also features a special 3D display function for image acquisition with rig-type 3D camera systems. In short, this 3D LCD video monitor responds to a wide range of 2D/3D video production needs.

* Note Regarding 3D Image Viewing
The perception of 3D effects varies in individuals. Viewing 3D images may cause adverse health effects in rare cases.
For comfortable 3D viewing, be sure to read the Safety Precautions and Cautions for Use sections in the operation manual.

Faithful Colour Reproduction Meets Broadcasting Needs

• A Wide Colour Space with Six Colour Space Modes (3D/2D)
  A Wide Colour Space with Six Colour Space Modes (3D/2D)The colour space of the BT-3DL2550 is 102% that of the NTSC standard, so it exceeds the EBU/SMPTE range that can be displayed by ordinary LCDs. It accurately reproduces colours that are not easily reproduced by conventional displays, including CRTs, to meet the needs of both broadcasters and image production companies, and to work in fields such as digital cinema, CG production, printing, publishing, advertising, and research. The BT-3DL2550 offers three wide colour space modes of Adobe RGB γ=2.2, γ=1.8) and D-Cinema (γ=2.6) in addition to the three broadcast modes of SMPTE, EBU and ITU-709.
  
  
• High-performance Image Processing Engine for Superb Moving Image Quality (3D/2D)
  Precise 10 bit image processing uses a three-dimensional LUT (Look Up Table) for each RGB colour to achieve faithful colour reproduction from low to high brightness levels.
  The diagonal line compensation circuit minimizes jagged noise on diagonal lines.
  The high-speed, high-performance I/P conversion circuit achieves superb motion response with a delay of less than one field between input and panel display.
  Improved response time in intermediate gradations provides vivid and clear image displays without blurring.
  
  
• Gamma Compensation for Each Monitor (3D/2D)
  In order to match the LCD monitor to professional broadcasting applications, compensation is conducted for each monitor in 256 discrete RGB steps, rated gamma properties (g = 2.2) are reproduced, and gradation suitable for broadcasting is achieved. Colour temperature of 9300K/6500K/5600K; and 3000K to 9300K can be selected with the variable setting.
  
  
• Calibration Function (3D/2D)
  The BT-3DL2550 comes installed with software that allows it to be calibrated without using a PC, by simply connecting a manufacturer-designated display colour analyzer and measurement probe to the monitor.

Display Functions for Professional Use

• Cine Gamma Compensation (3D/2D)
  The BT-3DL2550 is equipped with a cine-gamma (F-REC) compensation function for compatibility as a monitor for a Varicam camera recorder. This function supports the production of movies, film-like HDTV programs, and TV commercials.
  
  
• 2-Input Split-Screen Function (2D)
  This function displays two images on main screen and subscreen sections from two video inputs selected from VIDEO, SDI1, SDI2, YPBPR/RGB or DVI-D. The main screen section displays moving images or still pictures, and settings such as gamma, colour gamut, R gain and B gain can be adjusted on the image in the subscreen section. It is also possible to change the sizes of the main screen and subscreen sections to L/S, M/M or S/L. This function is especially useful for combining CGs, adjusting viewing angles of multiple camera images, and matching colours. Since this enables a single BT-3DL2550 to serve as two monitors, it also saves space.
  *It may not be possible to display both images simultaneously with certain input signal combinations.
  
  
• Various Markers (3D/2D)
  Various markers can be displayed in both 16:9 and 4:3 aspect ratios.
  Aspect Marker (16:9): 4:3, 13:9, 14:9, CNSCO or VISTA, with background brightness control of Black (0%), Half (50%) or Normal (100%).
  Safe Area Marker (16:9/4:3): 95%, 93%, 90%, 88% or 80%. In 16:9 mode, the BT-3DL2550 can display a superimposed safe area marker of both 16:9 and 4:3 simultaneously.
  Centre Marker (16:9/4:3): ON/OFF. The centre marker can be displayed together with another marker.
  
  
• Diversity of Display Functions
  Cross Hatch Overlay (3D/2D): Displays grids with 120 pixel intervals. This is useful for horizontal/vertical adjustment.* Vertical lines are displayed with intervals equalling approximately 6% of the screen width.
  HV Delay Display (2D): Displays the video blanking period.
  Audio Level Meter (3D/2D): Displays a skeleton bar meter showing the SDI embedded audio input level over the video image. The display can be selected from 2 channels, 4 channels, 8 channels or OFF.
  Mono Mode (3D/2D): Displays images in black-and-white.
  Time Code Display (3D/2D): Displays the time code selected from VITC, LTC or UB when an HD SDI signal is input.
  Closed Caption Display (2D): Displays closed captions (32 characters x 15 lines) when a video (NTSC) signal is input.

Design and Functionality for Diverse Applications

• A Space-Saving 64.8 cm/25.5 inches Full-HD Monitor (3D/2D)
  The BT-3DL2550 is a full-HD WUXGA (1920 x 1200 pixel) high-resolution IPS monitor. The interface section and operation section are integrated into the compact body. Taking advantage of the slim size and light weight of the LCD panel, this integrated design enhances setup flexibility and simplifies operation.
  
  
• Function Keys (3D/2D)
  Each of the function keys on the front panel can be assigned with a function selected from various display and switchover functions to enable one-touch display ON/OFF or mode change. These function buttons speed operation and customize the functions to the individual user’s needs.
