Precision and color accuracy

High-contrast, bright and crisp screen

4K UHD resolution

Thanks to the resolution of 3840 x 2160 (4K UHD), the CG2700X has an enormous pixel density of 164 ppi. Visible monitor pixels are guaranteed to be a thing of the past and even the monitor display gives a very meaningful impression of the subsequent print resolution. The IPS panel has a maximum brightness of 500 cd/m² and achieves a contrast ratio of 1450:1. Films can be assessed, edited and graded with the CG2700X in full 4K UHD resolution. The LCD module allows a viewing angle of 178 degrees. This keeps colour tones and contrasts stable in the user's viewing cone.

For saturated colors

Wide gamut color space

To be able to use the entire colour spectrum of modern cameras, you need a monitor with the largest possible colour space. Only then is it possible to visually assess and edit the saturated hues contained in the file. That is why the IPS panel of the ColorEdge CG2700X covers, for example, the wide AdobeRGB photo gamut as well as the CMYK print gamut ISO-Coated V2 to more than 99 %. This means that the full colour spectrum of modern cameras is represented unaltered and without gaps. And a precise simulation of the print result in the softproof view is also guaranteed.

Precision-color_WideGamut_CG.jpg

Smooth and fluid transitions and gradients thanks to 16-bit LUT and 10-bit mode

The LUT (look-up-table) on the CG2700X employs internal calculations with 16 bits for an extremely high colour depth and outputs the signals with up to 10 bits. This provides billions of hues for calculating the precise monitor display, effectively preventing display errors caused by the monitor such as banding or clipping, which can result in tonal breaks in gradients or unnecessary colours in greyscale. Even fine nuances and structures in dark or highly saturated areas of the image can be displayed in a differentiated and detailed manner.

Color depth for plastic images

True Black

With its high contrast ratio, the CG2700X displays deep blacks, which often look pale or washed out on a typical LCD monitor due to the backlight. This is especially true when viewing the monitor from the side in dimly lit rooms. The CG series is equipped with a retardation film for this purpose, which allows for this depth of blacks even at wide viewing angles.

Precision-color_TrueBlack.jpg

Perfect rendering across the entire screen

Digital Uniformity Equalizer

Each individual monitor panel is precisely measured over the entire surface at the EIZO factory. Any inhomogeneities in brightness and unnecessary colour are detected and removed. This process (Digital Uniformity Equalizer) guarantees that identical colours always look the same across the entire surface of the monitor, no matter where they are displayed. Only in this way is precise image processing and retouching possible.

Integrated sensor for self-calibration

An integrated calibration sensor ensures you achieve maximum colour accuracy. The sensor is perfectly aligned to the monitor, takes environmental influences such as light into account, and correlates the centre of the image with the edge of the image. This ensures an even result over the whole monitor.

The sensor is located in the bezel and is only extended when performing measurements. This means that no external calibration device is necessary, and the colour fidelity of the monitor is optimal at all times.

The CG2700X is equipped with the latest sensor technology, allowing it to be recalibrated on the fly. So you can continue working with applications that are not colour-critical while the monitor calibrates. The sensor only takes up a small amount of space on the screen during calibration and therefore does not interfere. Calibration can also take place completely automatically at definable times, even if the computer is switched off or not connected to the monitor at all.

Precision-color_Calibration-sensor.jpg

Exemplary image

Stable display thanks to industry-leading AI

To ensure gradations, colour, brightness and other characteristics are always accurately displayed even when the ambient temperature changes, the ColorEdge CG2700X is equipped with a temperature sensor. It accurately measures the monitor’s internal temperature, while an AI (artificial intelligence)-assisted correction algorithm* distinguishes between different temperature change patterns and calculates a precise adjustment in real time.

* Patent pending

Stable color reproduction in just three minutes

It takes a traditional monitor a minimum of 30 minutes for the brightness, chromaticity and tone values to stabilise, whereas the ColorEdge CG2700X only needs three minutes. It means that users know they can reliably trust the colours of the monitor within a short time after switching in on.

Ready to use right out of the box

Perfect settings right from the factory

Every ColorEdge CG2700X is individually measured and optimally configured in the factory, enabling it to be used immediately after it has been unboxed. To this end, the gamma curves for the red, green and blue channels are closely checked and corrected, if necessary. This unique EIZO factory calibration enables the user to start using the monitor with the preset gamut range right out of the box. This painstaking calibration at the factory ensures that the user can quickly recalibrate the monitor if needed using ColorNavigator.

Precision-color_Factory-calibration.jpg

Calibration report

Each ColorEdge CG2700X comes with an individual calibration report that shows the measurement results of the factory calibration of the monitor. The report proves the homogeneity, gamma curve, colour space coverage and white point of the monitor.

More information on the calibration report

EIZO software for fast calibration and printing

Each monitor ages and changes its display properties. This is why graphics monitors, which require an absolutely constant image display over the entire service life, must be regularly calibrated and adjusted. With the free calibration software ColorNavigator from EIZO, the ColorEdge CG2700X can be adjusted within 90 seconds (measured with a MacBook Pro and EX4), easily and without any losses. This is to ensure that the same image still looks the same on the monitor five years from now.
More information on the EIZO ColorNavigator


For users who want to calibrate several monitors in the company, EIZO offers the ColorNavigator Network tool. This allows for the quality management of many ColorEdge monitors to be carried out centrally. Among other things, an administrator can deliver calibration targets to the users and trigger the automatic calibration of ColorEdge monitors of the CG series. With the help of a secure cloud server offered by EIZO, it is possible to administer this central quality management across numerous locations or even continents.

For optimized color reproduction

EIZO microchip

The CG2700X has a high-quality microchip (ASIC, Application-Specific Integrated Circuit), which EIZO developed especially for the special requirements involved in work demanding high colour accuracy. This microchip is the brain of a ColorEdge as it guarantees the precise, uniform and constant image display that is the hallmark of EIZO.

Precision-color_Microchip_CE.jpg

Video and film production

Features for post-production

Precise color reproduction thanks to high-resolution 3D LUT

The 3D LUT ensures the most precise tonal value allocation and extremely accurate colour tone reproduction, which can be seen, among other things, in the grey wedge. In LCDs, the brightness levels vary from module to module in relation to the image signal and the colour mixing (addition) of red, green and blue. This can only be accurately recorded and controlled with the help of particularly precise measuring devices.

Ex works, EIZO therefore adjusts every monitor in the CG series and its colour and tone curve. This ensures a consistent colour temperature across the entire grey scale. The result: colour reproduction is the same, precise and reliable for every single CG2700X.

HDR Gamma

The ColorEdge CG2700X supports the two gamma curves for HDR video: the HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma) curve and the PQ (Perceptual Quantization) curve. Up to the maximum brightness of 500 cd/m², thus the CG2700X ensures a meaningful impression of the processed HDR material, so that a HDR reference monitor like the ColorEdge CG3146 is often only required in the final production step.

Gamut pre-sets for film and video production

Pre-sets for the DCI-P3, BT.709 and BT.2020 colour spaces are precisely calibrated ex works and ensure working with correct gamma values. In addition, colour modes for PQ (DCI and BT.2100) and HLG (BT.2100) for displaying HDR content are also pre-set at the factory. The brightness setting for each pre-set can be conveniently adjusted and recalibrated thanks to the integrated calibration sensor. HDR Mode of Windows and MAC OSX is directly supported. This provides an easy way using typical HDR video application displaying the right tone curve at the matching monitor setting.

Video-film_Presets_CG2700S-X.jpg

Safe in sight thanks to the Safe Area Marker

Ideal for subtitles and critical images: Thanks to the Safe Area Marker, you know which area of the scene is displayed in a different aspect ratio. You can therefore see immediately whether subtitles, texts or important picture elements are in the visible area. You can adjust the marker color, size and aspect ratio so that the marker is clearly visible in every image.

Video-film_SafeAreaMarker.jpg

Automatic color settings

The ColorEdge CG2700X offers Sync Signal functionality, which adjusts monitor settings such as signal range and colour format to the video signal, offering consistent color settings during the entire production process.

Luminance warning

The brightness warning can be used to mark areas that exceed a certain brightness (300, 500, 1000 or 4000 cd/m2) when using the PQ mode. These areas are marked optionally in yellow or magenta.

Gamut warning

The Gamut warning operates in two modes: Rec. 2020 image content that can’t be displayed in the Rec. 709 gamut is displayed in grayscale. Alternatively, clipping mode is simulated in Rec. 709 to show how Rec. 2020 material would look on HDTV devices.

Video-film_Gamut-warning.jpg

"Nearest Neighbor" interpolation setting

The ColorEdge CG2700X offers the Nearest Neighbor interpolation setting as an option for image scaling and resampling. With this upscaling, Nearest Neighbor copies neighbouring pixels while maintaining colour fidelity. If Nearest Neighbor is disabled, colour tones are interpolated between neighbouring pixels, providing smoother transitions. Users can select the interpolation method best suited to the project for different resolution

Ideal for video and film production: HDMI

Films are normally recorded at 24 fps. They therefore appear unnatural with the conventional monitor rendering of 60 Hz. The monitor supports an image frequency of 24 and 60 Hz. This means that you can view and edit your film material as it was taken. 

HDMI signals with refresh rates of 60, 50, 30, 25 and 24 Hz are supported. The monitor also features I/P conversion.

4K zoom

Users can quickly and easily make selections directly in the monitor menu to zoom in on various areas of the monitor image so as to assess details and sharpness.

Video-film_4K-Zoom.jpg

DCI 4K cropping

The DCI 4K cropping function allows users to display a DCI 4K (4096 x 2160) signal and crop content outside the limits of the panel's native 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) resolution. Users can choose between three options that determine which part of the image is displayed.

Variety of ports

Best connectivity

Cutting-edge connectivity with USB-C

Image signal, USB data transfer as well as power supply with up to 94 W, all this and more can be realised with a single USB-C cable. This makes the ColorEdge CG2700X the central dock of the graphic workflow. Peripheral devices such as a mouse, keyboard or printer can be connected directly to the USB-A ports. Mobile devices such as laptops or tablets can even be charged via the USB-C cable with up to 94 W via the USB-C cable. In this way, a laptop and CG2700X can be turned into a fully-fledged desktop workstation with a quick flick of the wrist.

Read more about USB-C in the EIZO Academy.

Connectivity_USB-C_ColorEdge_EN.jpg

One monitor, many ports

The CG2700X supports a wide range of video formats via USB-C, HDMI and DisplayPort interfaces. This means that the monitor can not only be integrated into PC-based workflows but can also be used with HDMI feeders.

Stable network connection

LAN port

The monitor has a dedicated LAN port to ensure a stable wired network connection. Laptops and PCs require only one USB cable to be connected to the CG2700X to gain network access via the monitor. This is particularly advantageous for laptops that do not have a LAN connection and allows stable data transfer, which is required for video conferences, for example. As a network device the monitor has its own MAC address.

Optionally, the "EIZO MAC Address Clone Utility" software for Windows can temporarily assign the MAC address of the connected PC to the monitor. This transparency grants authenticated PCs network access through the monitor.

Connectivity_LAN.jpg

Two PCs, one control

KVM switch

It has never been easier to operate different PCs with a single mouse and keyboard. Thanks to the USB upstream ports, the CG2700X has an integrated KVM (Keyboard Video Mouse) switch. The monitor automatically links the webcam, microphone, speakers, mouse and keyboard to the currently active source computer. This means, for example, that a desktop PC and laptop or business and private PC can each be operated on the same combination of monitor USB devices. This ensures uninterrupted working and a tidy workspace.

Ergonomics

Working in a relaxed manner

For the sake of the eyes

Flicker free

The monitor is flicker-free at every brightness setting. This is great for users, as their eyes will not tire as quickly, allowing them to work in front of the screen for longer periods of time without fatigue.

Anti-glare coating: more image, less reflection

The CG2700X offers a perfect, non-glare surface. By minimising glare by diffusing the reflected light, the CG2700X effectively protects your eyes from straining. This keeps your eyes from getting as tired and allows you to sit comfortably in front of the monitor, without having to sit in a forced position to prevent glare.

Ergonomics_Anti-glare.png

Ergonomic stand

Our screens offer continuous height adjustment. Depending on the model, they can even be lowered to the base plate of the stand. This guarantees the best possible ergonomics, regardless of whether the user is sitting or standing in front of the screen. You can also swivel, rotate and tilt the monitor base to the position that is most comfortable for your posture.

The CG2700X can also be rotated into the portrait format, which is a great advantage for tethered shoots of people in the portrait mode, for example.

FAQs

An integrated calibration sensor governs the maximum color accuracy. It positions itself automatically for calibration and then conceals itself in the safety of the casing until the next measurement is taken. Each monitor is exactly coordinated using its sensor. For example, the measurement location is correlated with the middle of the image at the upper edge of the image so that the sensor takes measurements as if it were in the middle of the image. This integrated solution rules out the variability, which may arise when using external measuring devices. Even the influences of ambient light are determined when initiating the sensor and considered during calibration.

All about monitor calibration

Devices with an integrated calibration sensor are able to perform calibration without the help of the user. The computer does not even need to be switched on. When programmed once, the calibration will start at night, during the lunch break, or at other, definable times. It is easy to program using the ColorNavigator or the on-screen menu.

All about monitor calibration

Typical 1D look-up tables (LUTs) have separate tables for red, green and blue. Depending on the model, EIZO links the color allocation to a single, three-dimensional look-up table (3D LUT) to ensure particularly accurate color control and in doing so, allows for the exact addition of primary colors to any chosen color tone – vital technology for the ideal gray scale and ultra-precise color rendering.

When you enable High Dynamic Range (HDR) in OS Display settings to use with ColorEdge selected SDR color mode, the color appears washed out.
 
When you disable High Dynamic Range (HDR) in OS Display settings to use with ColorEdge selected HDR color mode, the color appears extremely overexposed / bright.
 
Please first select the dynamic range in the OS display settings according to the selected color mode of the monitor and then change the color mode of the monitor according to the setting in the operating system.

Windows:
Settings -> System -> Display -> HDR -> "Use HDR" turn off

macOS: Apple -> System Preferences -> Displays -> "High contrast image": Off/On

Please note that macOS only uses its own DisplayP3 color profile for the high contrast setting. Setting the monitor-specific color profile (PQ/HLG) leads to incorrect results.

Yes, this is possible with an open and closed notebook through the monitor's power delivery function. To do this, deactivate the USB-C power supply of the notebook in idle mode in the Admininstrator menu of the monitor.

Compatibility Mode ON = Power supply active in idle mode
Compatiblitly Mode OFF = Power supply only when switched on

To start the notebook with the monitor switched on, please activate the function "Power On with AC attach" in its BIOS/UEFI. 
Depending on the computer, the function name may be slightly different.

The EIZO ColorNavigator software can be used to calibrate and profile ColorEdge-LCD monitor hardware. IMPORTANT: Please do not use an alternative calibration software, which may not be able to use the hardware function of ColorEdge LCD monitors.

To keep your monitor looking like new at all times and to prolong the service life of your device, we recommend cleaning it regularly. Clean the casing and LCD surface as described below:

IMPORTANT: Never use thinner, benzene, alcohol (ethanol, methanol or isopropyl alcohol), scouring agents or other strong solvents as these may damage the casing and the LCD display.

Casing
Remove marks by wiping the casing with a soft cloth, which you have previously moistened with a mild cleaning agent. Never spray wax or cleaning agents directly on to the casing. (The manual contains exact details.)

LCD display
Where necessary, the monitor surface may be cleaned using a soft cloth (for example a cotton cloth or glasses cloth). Stubborn marks can generally be removed by wetting the cloth with a bit of water to increase the cleaning strength.

EIZO offers different versions of the ColorNavigator software. They are compatible with Windows or Mac operating systems.

Details about the supported operating systems can be found here.

During the calibration by the user, the desired white point and gamma curve are transferred to the gray scale through a combination of measurements and calculations. This process is typical at EIZO as it saves time and is more precise than the measurements of several tone values with conventional manual measuring devices, which are prone to errors. The accuracy of the factory calibration with sensitive laboratory measuring equipment serves as a secure foundation in this regard.

Warranty

EIZO provides up to a five-year warranty, although some devices have a different warranty period. You can find out the exact warranty periods for each product either in the warranty terms and conditions above, in the datasheet, or on the EIZO international website. The long warranty periods are made possible by a highly developed manufacturing process based on a simple principle of success: sophisticated and innovative monitor technology, manufactured from high-end materials. For you, the 5-year warranty means a high level of investment security and savings on follow-up costs (total cost of ownership), which would be incurred without warranty service, for example, for maintenance and repairs.

  • Innovative service concept from EIZO, which sets standards and meets the trend towards longer depreciation periods. Safety that convinces and you can count on.
  • First-class material and careful processing provide for the extraordinary longevity and make so long guarantee durations possible.
  • Follow-up costs that would be incurred without warranty service, e.g. for maintenance and repairs, are avoided and lead to optimized cost transparency (Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).

„The EIZO CG2700X is a real enrichment of the renowned ColorEdge product line. Thanks to its UHD resolution, it also opens up to user groups for whom the pixel density of the CG2700S was previously not sufficient. […] The high-resolution, viewing-angle stable and comparatively high-contrast IPS panel forms an ideal basis on which EIZO can build with its development know-how. Thanks to DUE, its surface homogeneity is excellent, while its high colour gamut enables the most demanding image retouching and colour-safe proof simulations. Of central importance is also the in-house developed scaler, which processes the input signal loss-free and with high precision. With ColorNavigator, a software for controlling the hardware calibration is available that leaves hardly anything to be desired after a short training period. The integration of a colour space emulation into the calibration process ensures maximum colour reliability even in applications that are not colour management-capable. […]“
