Canon DP-V3010

Description

Canon’s DP-V3010 30″ 4K Reference Display provides you with a stable, high-resolution display for you to review 4K footage during all phases of production and postproduction. It features two sets of four BNC connectors and four DisplayPort connectors for 3840 x 2160 graphics input. The monitor supports both DCI and UHD video at 10-bit and an IPS screen for good off-axis viewing. The 10-bit panel is DCI contrast and color compliant, allowing it to accurately display images with a wider palette than an 8-bit panel, providing you with a more accurate representation of your actual footage.

The monitor incorporates a variety of image enhancement functions such as Backlight Scanning and Shape Trace that allows you to adjust how the monitor displays your images. LUT support allows you to see an approximation of how your graded footage will look, which can help you zero in on your lighting. The controls normally found on the front panel of a monitor are instead found on a detachable control panel, allowing you to control the monitor’s settings remotely. The timecode display allows you to accurately track your footage to confirm you are looking at the shot you want.

Accurate Colour Reproduction
The DP-V3010 has been designed to deliver stunning 4K resolution alongside astonishing accuracy in colour reproduction, even between multiple displays. The display is powered by a custom-developed image processor designed and manufactured by Canon, which combines with an RGB LED backlight system and IPS LCD panel to provide highly consistent quality and colour, both on-set during shooting and in post-production editing suites.

Utilising Canon’s unrivalled heritage in the development of imaging technologies, the DP-V3010’s image processor helps to ensure consistent brightness and colour, for a high level of uniformity across the full screen. A 10-bit panel driver works with the processor to enable the display of 1,024 gradation levels for each RGB colour, allowing delivery of exceptionally smooth and accurate gradation characteristics across all content types. As a result, the display provides the faithful colour-reproduction capabilities required for colour grading – providing an alternative to a dedicated DCI-compliant projector in post-production.

The DP-V3010’s RGB LED backlight system enables the reproduction of a rich array of colours. Combined with the IPS LCD panel, the display supports the most commonly used cinema colour space, DCI-P31, as well as the colour gamut specifications of various broadcast standards (ITU-R BT.709, EBU and SMPTE-C) and the Adobe RGB colour space2. At 30-inches, it is designed for desktop or wall installation in editing rooms and studios, making it ideally suited for video editing, colour grading, special effects, and to support the advanced needs of 4K digital cinema production.

High Resolution And Contrast
The IPS LCD panel features a resolution of 4,096 x 2,560 pixels, enabling the display of native DCI 4K resolution (4,096 x 2,160 pixels) without image scaling. The display is also suited to PC-based editing tasks, such as high-resolution still-image processing and visual-effects production work, thanks to a panel aspect ratio of 16:10.

Furthermore, Canon’s image-processing technology, combined with the high-contrast IPS LCD panel, achieves a contrast ratio of more than 2000:1, the minimum recommended by the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) for digital cinema post-production work3. Ensuring the accurate display of night-time shots and other dark scenes, the display accurately reproduces gradation in dark areas of an image – an important factor in digital cinema production.

The DP-V3010 also supports a wide angle of view thanks to minimal changes in colour and contrast across the IPS LCD panel – offering a highly effective solution in editing rooms or settings where multiple users wish to check image quality.

On-Location Monitoring
Equipped with a dedicated picture mode that supports Canon Log Gamma4, the DP-V3010 enables conversion of footage shot using Cinema EOS System cameras into images suitable for monitoring on set.

In addition to support for the cinema standard frame rate, 24p, the new Canon display accepts a wide variety of 4K video input signals from 23.98p to 60p, including the 50p frame rate more common in EMEA broadcast productions. Support for the ASC CDL5 metadata format and 1D/3D-LookUp Tables (LUTs) allows accurate colour matching either on set or in the grading suite.

The DP-V3010 also offers three scaling display modes for 2K and Full HD video production, including Canon’s Shape Tracing Technology, which suppresses the jagged appearance of diagonal lines when content is enlarged and displayed at full-screen resolution.

Enhanced Reliability And Operability
To guarantee high levels of reliability, the DP-V3010 undergoes precise colour adjustment prior to shipment. An advanced system monitors temperature and brightness and uses the information to automatically correct backlight colour and brightness over time – ensuring highly stable display performance.

The DP-V3010 includes a control unit that facilitates intuitive operation through its straightforward layout, and can be used on a desktop or installed in a standard 19-inch (approx. 483 mm) equipment rack. Operability and maintenance are further enhanced by support for calibration of white balance, brightness, colour temperature, colour gamut and gamma without the need for a PC, when a compatible third-party sensor is used.
