Panasonic will unveil at NAB 2006 a 26” production quality LCD monitor, the BT-LH2600W. It features a true widescreen panel, one-piece design, higher resolution, the industry’s lowest delay, and standard HD-SDI/SDI with embedded audio. The BT-LH2600W also features two auto switching SDI/HD-SDI inputs, a high-speed response with no blurring; the industry’s lowest delay realized by an image processing circuit that converts interlaced into progressive signals with no visible delays; a Waveform Monitor that graphically displays luminance levels from zero to 108 IRE in any of the monitor’s four corners; and a Split Screen/Freeze Frame function for scene comparison and critical color matching (live input vs
. freeze frame).
Functionality new to the BT-LH2600W includes increased resolution (1366x768), pixel mapping of any of five areas of the screen for superior camera focusing, audio level meters superimposed and translucent (up to eight channels), and an 80% (of 4:3) “safe-area” frame marker in 16:9 mode. Also, the 26” diagonal screen yields four 13” pictures when used with a quad splitter.
