This 16:10 aspect ratio monitor for home, business, CAD, and digital photography comes with three inputs including a DisplayPort connector and six preset modes.
Three Inputs Including DisplayPort
Connect with up to three PCs via the monitor's D-Sub (analog), DVI-D (digital), and DisplayPort (digital) input terminals. DisplayPort is next-generation connectivity that transmits both video and audio signals.
Placement Flexibility
The FlexScan S2433W comes with a “FlexStand” that offers tilt, swivel, 90° rotation for portrait mode viewing, and 174 mm of height adjustment. Its innovative, bearing-less design reduces mechanical wear and the amount of torque required to adjust height.
Six Preset Modes Including "EyeCare"
For optimum viewing of different kinds of content, Text, Movie, Picture, sRGB, Custom, and EyeCare preset modes are included. Available for the first time, "EyeCare" mode lowers brightness to a mere 3 cd/m2. This mode helps prevent eye fatigue in an environment with little or no lighting.
Improved Work Efficiency, Reduced Visual Fatigue
EIZO conducted a survey in 2008 to establish the relationship between eye fatigue and monitor use. The results showed that features like Auto EcoView, ergonomic stands, and the EyeCare utility helped reduce eye fatigue and improved work efficiency by 12.5%.
Optimized Brightness with Auto EcoView
An Auto EcoView sensor on the front of the monitor measures ambient light and optimizes the screen's brightness to levels akin to viewing a sheet of paper under typical office lighting conditions. Since the screen is never too bright, eye strain is reduced while power consumption is cut by up to 43% compared to operating the monitor with Auto EcoView turned off and set to the default factory brightness of 100%.
EyeCare Utility
EIZO's new EyeCare utility prompts workers to take scheduled breaks, thereby promoting healthier work habits and preventing eye fatigue caused by prolonged monitor use.
DVI Input Level Adjustment
The monitor compensates for image quality degradation that may occur when connecting to a signal switch box or to a PC via a long cable.
Zero Watts When Turned Off
When the monitor's power save mode and off timer function are set, it consumes less than 1.5 watts of power, and when turned off via the main power switch, it consumes no electricity at all.
Individual Adjustment of Gamma
For better image consistency in multi-monitor environments, EIZO adjusts the gamma at the factory.
Energy Efficiency Gauge
To encourage environmental consciousness while working, a user-activated gauge called "EcoView Index" indicates energy consumption in correlation with the screen's brightness. When EcoView Index is fully illuminated, the monitor is operating at optimum energy efficiency.
Simple Color Matching with EIZO EasyPIX
The optional EIZO EasyPIX color matching tool is ideal for digital SLR camera users looking to match colors between their monitors and photo prints. With the EasyPIX software you can match the monitor's color and brightness with that of the photo paper and then create a monitor profile with the bundled EX1 color sensor. No expertise in color management is required and the profile can be shared with image retouching software to ensure accurate results when printing.
Wide Color Gamut
The monitor reproduces 96% of the Adobe RGB color space. This means it can display most colors of a photograph taken in a camera's Adobe RGB mode including many shades of cyan and emerald green that fall outside the color gamut of typical sRGB monitors.
Commitment to Quality
While outsourcing production is now common practice in the monitor industry, EIZO continues to manufacture its products the same way it has throughout its 40 year history – with its own staff at its own factories. This allows EIZO to keep close control over production quality and offer the industry's only 5-year manufacturer's limited warranty.
Unobtrusive Speakers
0.5 watt speakers are hidden within the monitor cabinet, so you can enjoy sound while bezel size is kept to a minimum. If you require greater volume, the separate i-Sound L3 sound unit with dual 0.9 watt speakers can be attached to the bottom of the monitor.Customer Assurance
A five-year warranty offers a long service life, and compliance with leading industry standards such as TCO Display 5.0 and TÜV Ergonomics ensures a better working environment.
