Re: FSI LCD for color grading

[Viditor Cheung] "Dear all, did any one use FSI LCD for color grading purpose? any advice? "

Yes, we have three of them. 2450W and 1760W. You can read about them in my Blog here on the Cow or on my website. Or search this forum for Flanders Scientific, FSI and my name. Nick Griffin did a full review on the monitors a few months back.

Also, here's a post from Bob Zelin in the AJA Kona Forum.

In short, they're awesome, especially the 2450W. We replaced all our broadcast CRTs with these monitors.

[Viditor Cheung] "In addition, do any one have a proper standard for monitor CHROMA level (EBU standard or rec 709)? As my Klein K-10 can check the GAMUT but not CHROMA (as the gamut reading is the same what ever it is a 75% red or 100% red), so how can I calibrate the chroma level of my monitor other than using blue check function?"

The FSI monitors have an auto calibration feature, they will arrive at your office properly calibrated. If you need to calibrate in the future, generally once a year, you can rent their kit which requires no computer. You simply connect it to the monitor and do an "auto-calibration," wait 20 minutes, and you're done.

There is a full video manual online now so you can review all the features and how they operate. Also keep in mind they have a full 30 day money back guarantee so you can try it out in your office and return it if you're not happy with it.
