Superb Image Quality
Overdrive Circuit
The overdrive circuit smooths the flow of moving imag-
es by adjusting the voltage input for each frame based
on image data from the previous three frames. Com-
monly used in LCD TVs, overdrive improves midtone
response time — the time required to transit between
gray levels — to 12 ms for both monitors, greatly re-
ducing blurring in moving color images. The picture is
clean and crisp, with significantly reduced ghosting.
C-Booster
C-Booster technology provides sharper and more vivid
moving and still pictures by raising contrast levels and
enhancing colors. It monitors the gradation ranges
and boosts the contrast of the most frequently used
range, so bright colors in bright scenes and dark col-
ors in dark scenes stand out in sharper detail. It also
computes a running average over a series of frames so
that contrast boost is applied smoothly during dark-
bright transitions.
Fine Contrast
For optimum viewing of all types of content, the Fine
Contrast function allows the selection of five imag-
ing modes: Text, Picture, Movie, Custom, and sRGB.
Each mode has its own settings for image parameters
such as color temperature, gamma, and bright-
ness. You can navigate between the modes simply
by pressing a button on the front panel. For further
convenience, a Fine Contrast mode can be assigned
to any application with the bundled ScreenManager
®
Pro for LCD utility software. When the application
is opened, the screen automatically changes to its
assigned mode.
1000:1 Contrast Ratio
This outstand-
ing contrast per-
formance makes
images on dark
backgrounds appear more vivid and ensures that col-
ors retain their richness even in brightly lit rooms.

gradation area so bright
areas appear brighter
