EIZO today announced the new ColorEdge CG319X - a 31.1-inch monitor with DCI-4K resolution (4096 x 2160) and HDR gamma support for the professional post-production workflow. It is the successor model to the CG318-4K with several upgraded features.

Distinguishing it from its predecessor, the ColorEdge CG319X comes equipped with HLG (hybrid log-gamma) and the PQ (perceptual quantization) curve for displaying and editing HDR (high dynamic range) video content. The optimized gamma curves render images to appear more true to how the human eye perceives the real world compared to SDR (standard dynamic range). Having a monitor equipped with HDR gamma support ensures professional creators can reliably display HDR content during the editing process so it is ready for color grading at the end of the workflow.





ColorEdge CG319X is equipped with an upgraded built-in calibration sensor, which allows the user to continue to operate the monitor even during recalibration. The sensor swings onto the screen at a time designated by the user and takes up minimal space so work remains uninterrupted. A built-in sensor eliminates the need for a third-party calibration device and ensures the screen stays color-accurate.

The monitor's wide color gamut reproduces 98% of the DCI-P3 color space used in the media and entertainment industry. In compliance with the DCI standard, the ColorEdge CG319X offers a high contrast ratio of 1500:1 for producing true blacks that are otherwise difficult to display on a typical LCD monitor. In addition, it is equipped with a retardation film which allows tones to retain their depth even when viewed from an angle. The color and brightness of an LCD monitor can be affected by changes in ambient temperature of the monitor itself. The ColorEdge CG319X is equipped with an internal temperature sensor which detects those changes and adjusts the monitor so gradations, color, brightness, and other characteristics continue to be displayed accurately. The algorithm used in the AI (artificial intelligence) 2 of the monitor allows it to perform this temperature detection and adjustment even at high brightness levels for providing a truly accurate viewing environment. In addition, EIZO's patented digital uniformity equalizer (DUE) technology also counterbalances the influences that a fluctuating temperature may have on color temperature and brightness for stable image display across the entire screen. The monitor also provides noiseless, fanless operation while still maintaining low heat output without impacting performance.

Additional Features
  • 3D LUT for individual color adjustment on an RGB cubic table
  • 10-bit simultaneous display from a 24-bit LUT for smooth color gradations
  • DCI-4K resolution at 60 Hz via DisplayPort 1.2 or HDMI input
  • Broadcast and cinema preset modes: EBU, Rec. 2020, Rec. 709, SMPTE-C, DCI, PQ, and HLG
  • Two DisplayPort and two HDMI inputs
  • Ergonomic stand which meets IEC/EN 62368-1
  • Light-shielding hood included
  • 5-year manufacturer's warranty

The display will be available sometime in May, with pricing information still to be made public.

No brightness figures? Curious if it's another fake hdr monitor, something I don't expect from Eizo.

This is a good question as it would be nice to now.

That said, as has been noted in other threads, peak brightness is only one of the factors in good HDR performance and a monitor with a lower peak can actually yield a better picture than a high peak brightness one if other areas of the display quality (such as black level, implementation of the backlight and brightness uniformity) are better on the dimmer one.

So like with most displays, the spec sheet only tells us so much and a side by side comparison/full review etc. are really needed to be sure how a product performs.

Given the market this one is aimed at and the colour gamut allegedly available, I would imagine/hope the HDR performance is very good.

Interestingly enough, it has 4k in the specs, but the resolution is not standard 4k.

Where do you read it? It is DCI-4K as stated.

For photo editing it is good, and it is aimed at industry professionals. It is not meant for gaming, it will have latency like a snail due to additional image processing, it is inevitable.

Ah, I missed that. But I never meant to imply the monitor wasn't good. It would be foolish to do so when it comes to Eizo. I'm pretty sure even their duds are better than the best the likes of BenQ or Asus will come up with.

@Ferrum Master Exactly, it is "proper" 4k rather than UHD.

I really wish companies would just use UHD and not "4k UHD" which is not "proper" 4k. ;)

Eizo's old Foris FG2421 was one of the best gaming monitors when it came out (and still is). Rumor has it they were made from cast-offs of their professional line. That said, this CG319X is definitely a professional monitor with that built-in calibration and included light-shielding hood (and that ColorEdge name!). It's still nice that we're seeing more 4K or 4K-like (however you define it) screens appearing on smaller screens. Maybe the cast-offs of this will end up as Eizo's next gaming line. I'm still waiting for a 24" 1600p monitor though.
