Eizo intros 30-inch professional monitor

Japan-based Eizo has introduced a new professional-grade 30-inch display, the ColorEdge CG303W. It sports a 2560x1600 resolution and a 178-degree vertical and horizontal viewing angle. As the monitor is meant for professional use, it covers 98 percent of the Adobe RGB color gamut. Its gamma adjustments are set by individual workers at the factory before the monitor is shipped out, and end-users can calibrate it themselves thanks to the included ColorNavigator software.

Other specs include a 260cd/m2 brightness, an 850:1 static contrast ratio and a 12ms response time. Connections are made up of two DVI-D ports, with one being HDCP compliant. Two USB 2.0 ports are also present. The monitor can be turned into a portrait orientation and is compatible with VESA wall mounts.

The Eizo ColorEdge CG303W will begin shipping in Japan in mid-March, priced at the equivalent of about $4,400. Eizo displays often leave Japan for other countries but don't have any international release plans as of yet. [via Impress]
