Wide Area, High Resolution Screen

The FlexScan SX2762W features a 2560 × 1440 native resolution across its 27-inch screen. This is more than double the pixels of a 19-inch monitor with a 1280 x 1024 resolution and 60% more than a monitor with a 1920 x 1200 resolution. This gives you plenty of room to spread out your windows and palettes.

Wide Colour Gamut

The monitor reproduces 97% of the Adobe RGB colour space so it can display most colours in a digital photo taken in Adobe RGB mode. Furthermore, it also has an sRGB mode to accurately reproduce colours in this narrower but commonly used colour space, such as those seen on web pages or digital photos taken in sRGB mode.

10-Bit Simultaneous Display

The monitor can display 10-bit colour from a 16-bit look-up table via its DisplayPort and DVI-D inputs* . This is more than 1 billion colours shown simultaneously which is 64 times greater than the 16.7 million colours of 8-bit display.

*A graphics board and software which support 10-bit output are also necessary for 10-bit display.

Hardware Calibration with EIZO EasyPIX

EIZO EasyPIX imageEIZO EasyPIX lets you calibrate the monitor itself (hardware calibration rather than the computer's graphics board (software calibration). This ensures more accurate and predictable colour. EasyPIX is sold separately and consists of software and the EIZO EX1 colour sensor.

Three Inputs Including DisplayPort

DVI-D, DisplayPort, and Mini DisplayPort are included. DisplayPort and Mini DisplayPort accept both video and audio signals simultaneously. Mini DisplayPort offers the further benefit of connection with Mac and Windows-based notebook computers.

Brightness and Colour Uniformity with DUE

Fluctuations in brightness and chroma on different parts of the screen are characteristic of LCD panels. Generally, the larger the screen, the more noticeable these uniformity errors become. EIZO's Digital Uniformity Equaliser (DUE) helps to compensate for these errors, resulting in a much more uniform image.

Detailed Colour Control

The OSD menu and bundled ScreenManager Pro for LCD software offers adjustment of brightness, gamma, saturation, hue, gain and colour temperature from 4,000 K to 10,000 K in 100 K increments. For fine-tuning of even a single colour, the hue and saturation settings for red, green, blue, cyan, magenta, and yellow can be adjusted independently.

Preset Modes

Different types of creative work require different colour settings. To ensure you get the right ones, this monitor comes with three customisable preset modes for assigning your own values for brightness, contrast, colour temperature, and gamma. In addition, Paper, Text, Picture, Movie, and sRGB modes are also included. You can switch modes automatically with the bundled ScreenManager Pro for LCD software or manually with the press of a button.

Brightness and Colour Temperature Stability

To ensure proper display of colour, the FlexScan SX2762W comes equipped with patented EIZO technology that stabilises the monitor's brightness level after startup or coming out of power saving mode. Furthermore, a temperature sensor detects and automatically suppresses changes in colour and brightness caused by fluctuations in the surrounding temperature.

Fast Response Time

An overdrive circuit is included to reduce grey-to-grey response time to 6 ms and ensure that movies and other moving images look clean and sharp with an absolute minimum of blurring and ghosting.

New Cabinet and Stand Design

The FlexScan SX2762W features a new cabinet and is the first monitor with the new FlexStand 2. The cabinet design maintains the distinct look of EIZO monitors while introducing a more smoothly rounded appearance. The FlexStand 2 complements the new cabinet design while offering very versatile positioning with 152 mm height adjustment, 25° tilt, 344° swivel, and 90° rotation for portrait mode viewing.

Presence Sensor for Power Savings

EIZO’s EcoView Sense feature unites convenience with energy savings by ensuring that the monitor automatically conserves power when it is not in use. EcoView Sense is an integrated presence sensor that prompts the monitor to switch to power save mode when it does not detect your presence for 70 seconds, and then resume normal operation when you return. To prevent the screen from reactivating when it shouldn't, EcoView Sense differentiates between your presence and a still object like an empty chair or general office activity in the background.

Optimised Brightness with Auto EcoView

A sensor on the front of the monitor measures ambient light and optimises the screen’s brightness to ensure the screen is never too bright or too dark. If preferred, Auto EcoView can be deactivated in the OSD menu.

Energy and Environmental Efficiency Index

A user-activated EcoView Index displays the level of power savings and equivalent amount of C02 reduction compared to using the monitor without Auto EcoView activated and with the screen set at a brightness of 100%.

On-Screen Button Guide

Graphics professionals often work in a dimly lit environment which can make it difficult to read a monitor's adjustment buttons. The SX2762W, however, includes an on-screen button guide that labels what each of the buttons are for so you can easily navigate the OSD menu.

Colour Vision Deficiency Simulation

To avoid creating inconveniences and even dangers for those with colour vision deficiency, care must be taken when choosing colour schemes for everyday items such as maps, road signs, web sites, and power indicator lights. This monitor can instantly simulate how still and moving images appear to people with colour vision deficiency, and do so much faster than software-based tools that slow down with larger files.

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.
