You're in control
You don’t need extra distractions when you’re working under pressure.
Most IT monitors leave essential functions buried deep in complex menu structures. With Sony professional displays it’s a different story. Direct access to key functions is via dedicated buttons – so it’s quick and easy to adjust contrast, brightness, chroma, white balance, audio volume or input selections.
Looks familiar
On set or in the studio, you’ll save time and effort with valuable features like auto white adjustment and one-button calibration.
There’s a reassuring family resemblance between controls and functionality on every Sony Professional Monitor – from our versatile entry-level LMD Series to the flagship BVM Reference Series.
Additionally, a common and accurate 10-bit display engine is used from entry-level LMD-B Series to premium PVM-A Series to enhance picture quality and maintain picture consistency all through the picture monitors range reinforcing your confidence in what you see on screen.
So you don’t need to worry about disrupting your workflow, or spending precious time re-skilling busy production personnel.
Monitors for HDR production
Once your audiences have experienced High Dynamic Range (HDR), there’s no looking back. HDR brings viewers closer to reality, with a viewer range of brightness levels from sparkling highlights to deep, intense blacks plus an extended color gamut.
Combined with the higher resolution of 4K Ultra HD, production in HDR evaluated with our Professional Monitors ensures your creativity always stands out in today’s competitive marketplace – and tomorrow’s.
Accuracy of brightness
Accuracy of brightness and saturation is carefully controlled by the Sony designed 12bit engine for OLED, which is commonly used in the BVM Series and the PVM-X550.
The ultimate reference
Take a step closer to perfection with the BVM-X300 V2 30-inch 4K OLED monitor. It’s engineered to support the most demanding grading and QC applications, offering compatibility for latest BT.2100 standards for HDR including PQ and HLG.
Optimised large screen
The PVM-X550 55-inch OLED monitor is the ideal size to provide a clear view of grading noise and HDR impression, giving very close color matching to the reference BVM-X300, which is also comparable in size to today’s consumer TV sets. The unique quad view display mode ensures individual settings of EOTF, color gamut on each quadrant in HDR.
Small monitor, big performance
Offering Full HD resolution, the compact BVM-E171 16.5-inch OLED monitor is easily upgraded to HDR capability with an optical license. Great for SR Live HDR workflows and cinematography applications, it’s equally at home in an OB vehicle and on-set.
Supporting the standard
HDR-compatible Professional Monitors from Sony offer versatile support for a wide range of input formats, including the latest picture standards. Whether your content’s destined for cinema, TV broadcast or 4K streaming services, you can review High Dynamic Range images with absolute confidence that you’re seeing a true pictures-clear.

Wide dynamic range

See colors rendered faithfully over their entire tonal range, plus accurate reproduction of bright highlights and deep shadow detail that ordinary monitors miss. You’ll be rewarded with truer-looking content, fewer retakes and smoother workflow.
Truer, more lifelike color
Accurately reproducing dark color shades is a challenge for any monitor. Whether you’re working with CG, grading or mastering content for digital cinema, TRIMASTER EL™ OLED technology assures beautifully consistent reproduction of the subtlest tones and shades over the entire luminance range – a challenge that leaves other monitors washed out.
For freelancers
If you’re an experienced freelancer – or if you’re starting out in video production – picking the right monitor’s every bit as important as your choice of camera.
So don’t compromise with an ordinary IT display: it isn’t designed to reproduce the subtleties of broadcast-quality moving images.
Our entry-level LMD Series monitors take the guesswork out of assessing images in the studio or edit suite. You’ll enjoy impressive accuracy and stability that are hallmarks of every Sony Professional Monitor. You’ll also value rock-solid reliability and intuitive controls with no fiddly menu diving.
