Eizo CG301W 30" Widescreen ColorEdge Monitor Overview
See the big picture with the first 30” monitor for graphic arts and printing to support hardware calibration. As a premium edition model, the ColorEdge CG301W is equipped with EIZO’s Digital Uniformity Equalizer function and comes with a shading hood.
As a ColorEdge Premium Edition model, the CG301W offers the following benefits.
Work in Comfort with 30" of Screen Space
The 30" screen with its native resolution of 2560 x 1600 gives you more than twice as many pixels to work with as a 20 or 21 inch monitor with a 1600 x 1200 resolution. Open up your digital photographs and soft proofs and work in comfort without having to worry about your windows and palettes overlapping.
ColorNavigator Calibration Software
This EIZO-developed software comes bundled with ColorEdge models and offers 12-bit hardware calibration.
Further Details
Factory Adjustment of Gamma
To ensure that the most accurate and consistent color gradations possible, EIZO carefully measures and sets every shade of R, G, and B from 0 – 255 on the production line with the monitor's 12-bit Look-Up Table (LUT), to produce a monitor gamma value of 1.8. If a different value is preferred, the bundled ColorNavigator software can be used to assign a value ranging from 1.0 – 2.6 in increments of 0.1.
Wide Color Gamut
The ColorEdge CG301W has a color gamut that reproduces 97% of the Adobe RGB color space so it can display most colors in a photograph taken in Adobe RGB mode and CMYK color spaces used for printing. Furthermore, it has an sRGB mode to accurately reproduce this narrower but commonly used color space.
Two Monitors in One with Picture-By-Picture
Increase your work efficiency by dividing the screen into two equal halves of 1200 × 1600 and displaying input from two computers simultaneously. No bezel between the two halves and no toggling back and forth between the two computers.
Dual DVI-D Inputs
Dual DVI-D inputs (digital) are included for connecting to two PCs. One input supports dual link for displaying resolutions up to the monitor’s maximum of 2560 × 1600, and the other input is single link for resolutions up to 1920 × 1200. The single link input supports high bandwidth digital content protection (HDCP) for viewing of content from HDCP-equipped devices.
6 ms Midtone Response Time
To enhance moving image playback capabilities, an overdrive circuit is included. This circuit vastly improves the LCD panel’s response time for changing between midtones or gray levels, which is necessary to display color images without blurring.
USB 2.0 Hub
This one upstream, two downstream hub facilitates high speed (480 MB/s) connections with other USB peripherals.
Free Mount Capability
Panel can be removed from its stand and mounted on VESA-compliant arms or stands.
Brightness Stabilization Function
Ensures stable brightness - necessary for the proper display of color – with EIZO patented technology. A drift correction sensor quickly stabilizes the brightness level after startup or coming out of power saving mode. Furthermore, the monitor detects and automatically compensates for brightness changes caused by surrounding temperatures and the passage of time.
Customer Assurance
A five-year warranty offers a long service life, and compliance with leading industry standards such as TCO’03 and TÜV Ergonomics ensures a better working environment. The EIZO Eco Products 2006 label indicates these products meet strict internal requirements for design, manufacturing, packaging, and usage, including the introduction of lead-free solder and chrome-free steel plates.
