Overview
Full HD Multi-format LCD Monitor
The new LMD-4250W is an elegant 42-inch widescreen LCD monitor designed for demanding broadcast and professional applications. LCD displays are increasingly replacing CRT monitors in the professional arena due to their increased operational flexibility and lower overall cost of ownership.
Redefining high performance in the mid-market sector, the new model incorporates a full HD resolution 1920x1080 LCD panel, displaying high brightness and contrast images together with a superior viewing angle of 178 degrees. The LMD-4250W offers highly accurate and consistent colour reproduction through its unique Sony ChromaTRU technology. This allows assured picture quality decisions as well as facilitating close colour matching for tiling applications.
Responding to user preferences, the previously separate signal processing unit has been integrated into the monitor body whilst retaining the previous generation's convenience of light weight, minimal depth and outstanding installation flexibility.
New full digital 10-bit processing adds to the already impressive array of specifications, delivering smooth greyscale and colour transitions.
Further enhancements include a DVI-D input, enabling a third-party manufacturer's multi-image processor to be connected, an LCD backlight control and an Ethernet remote control function ideal for any monitor wall control. It also sports a picture-in-picture or side by side mode for greater user flexibility.
Entirely at home in broadcast, OB, production, post-production and corporate environments, the LMD-4250W accepts a wide variety of PC and Analogue video formats and optional decoder boards are available for standard and high definition digital video display.

Suitable for a Wide Range of Applications
Ideal for BROADCAST (studio, office viewing, control room etc.), PRODUCTION (OB, monitor wall, VTR control, audio monitoring etc.), POST-PRODUCTION (mid-range multi-format editing consoles), CORPORATE (high-end multi-format use) and GRAPHIC DESIGN
Superb High Definition Display
Full HD 1920x1080 LCD panel delivers outstandingly sharp high brightness and contrast pictures
Perfect for Group Viewing
An ultra-wide viewing angle of 178 degrees makes this no problem
Outstanding greyscale and colour transitions provide lifelike picture quality
Thanks to full digital 10-bit processing.
Colour Quality Decisions can be made with Confidence
Innovative Sony ChromaTRU technology ensures consistent and repeatable colour to ITU-709, SMPTE and EBU standards and from monitor to monitor.
Consistently Optimal Picture Performance
Less 'drift' than CRT displays, with no convergence, geometry or linearity issues, and no susceptibility to magnetic fields.
Ideal for 'Tiling' Applications
Consistent and repeatable chroma and greyscale performance ensures close matching between monitors.
Productivity Boost
With new picture-in-picture and picture side by side functions.
Exceptionally Versatile
Equally suited to AV or IT-based applications due to a broad range of inputs and multi-format signal capabilities.
Future Proof
Slot structure for optional video decoder boards will ensure that the LMD-4250W remains current.
Easier to Install and Accommodate than CRT
Space saving / lightweight / low heat output - and ideal for Studio, OB or mobile applications
