Covering 99% of Adobe RGB, and 100% of both sRGB and Rec. 709 colour space, the SW271 delivers the ultimate colour accuracy of Delta E ≦ 2 performance with its 10-bit IPS panel and advanced 14-bit 3D lookup table (LUT).
“We are proud to present the SW271, which joins our full line of professional monitors purpose-engineered for photographers,” said Conway Lee, President of BenQ Corporation. "The SW271 brings photo enthusiasts professional-grade performance, specialized tools, and advanced calibration for colour-critical applications."
To display each colour across its broad colour gamut with perfect accuracy, the SW271 utilizes an advanced 14-bit 3D LUT to achieve Delta E values of two or better. With Technicolor ® Colour Certification to meet the strict colour accuracy standards used in Hollywood and entertainment media, the SW271's 10-bit 27" IPS panel delivers authentic colours as envisioned by content creators.
Producing intense photographic realism and colour depth by expanding the dynamic range between true darkness and high brightness, the SW271 clearly displays high-resolution images from sophisticated DSLRs and other HDR source devices.
The SW271's colour characteristics can be customized via hardware calibration with X-Rite or Datacolor calibrators and the BenQ Palette Master Element calibration software. Equipped with USB Type-C TM connectivity, the BenQ SW271 utilizes a single cable for calibration and video transmission.
Users can easily and instantly switch between the Adobe RGB, sRGB, as well as Black and White modes via the SW271's exclusive "Hotkey Puck", a small and elegant device that fits comfortably in the base of the SW271. In addition, the detachable shading hood comes included to block ambient glare for professional work in both portrait and landscape orientations, and GamutDuo Mode enables simultaneous picture-by-picture operation in two different colour spaces, such as Adobe RGB and sRGB, or even in a black and white film effect.
