HDR MONITORS

HDR MONITOR RENTAL

RENT HDR MONITORS

• HDR Monitor Rental. HDR images are a set of techniques that allow a better dynamic range of luminances between the lightest and darkest areas of an image than standard digital imaging techniques. High dynamic range video recording makes it possible to obtain images similar to those viewed by the human eye, which when observed is capable of distinguishing details in areas with a difference in lighting much greater than that supported by other formats such as film or digital cinema.

• Although we know HDR from photography, it has been used for less time in video or digital cinema. At Camaleón we offer HDR reference monitors for filming. Check our rental offers for Sony, Tvlogic or Transvideo HDR reference monitors.

• The two most important factors in the look of a monitor are the contrast ratio, i.e. how bright and how dark it can be, and the colour accuracy, which is basically how much the colours on the screen look like real life colours (or whatever palette the director wants). This is not just my opinion, but also that of almost all monitor reviewers, those who have participated in head-to-heads between various TVs in shops and for websites/magazine sites, and industry experts such as the Imaging Science Foundation.

• DR expands the range of both contrast and colour considerably. Bright parts of the picture can be much brighter, so the picture appears to have more "depth". Colours are expanded to show more bright blues, greens, reds and everything in between.

• Wide Colour Gamut (WCG) is incorporated into HDR, bringing even more colours. Colours that, until now, were impossible to reproduce on any monitor. The reds of a fire engine, the deep violet of an aubergine, even the green of many road signs. You may never have realised before that they weren't exactly how they looked in real life, but you sure do now. WCG will bring these colours and millions more to your eyes.

HDR MONITOR CHARACTERISTICS

• To support HDR, the monitor must be able to produce more light than a normal monitor in certain areas of the image. This is basically like local dimming, but to a greater extent. 

• The monitors that work best with HDR are LCD models with local dimming and OLED monitors. A monitor lacking these features may look better than a monitor without HDR, but the difference will not be as noticeable.

• Monitors are getting more and more nits, i.e. they are able to "brighten" more, especially at the top end of the range. This allows them to display content that could not be seen on low brightness monitors, as the monitor is unable to reproduce certain tones.

• With HDR, you get blacker blacks, brighter whites, a wider greyscale, which means more detail in darker areas, and more accurate colour reproduction.

• For these improvements to be noticeable to consumers, two situations must coincide: the images must be generated in a way that can store the additional information, and the monitor must be able to extract that data and reproduce it.

• An HDR monitor offers two major advantages. You benefit from a wide colour gamut, high brightness. This means that, as long as your video card supports it, you can watch colourful, sharp movies on your screen. A screen with a wide colour gamut can display even more colours than a monitor with different colour profiles. This means that a monitor with a wide colour gamut really brings out the best in your HDR content.
