The BVM-L230 reference LCD monitor supersedes the market leading BVM-A series CRT models, heralding in a new era in broadcast post-production, D-Cinema production, evaluation and mastering. LCD displays are increasingly replacing CRT monitors in the professional arena due to their operational flexibility and lower overall ownership cost. In the BVM-L230 you will find a state-of-the-art product that surpasses the performance of its CRT predecessors.

A new Sony technology - TRIMASTER - has been employed in the BVM-L230 to produce an LCD monitor fully justifying the Reference designation. In developing TRIMASTER, the technology had to deliver accurate colour reproduction, precision imaging and absolute picture consistency. Sony designers have achieved this through three key devices: a high-grade customized LCD panel, a new precision high-purity LED backlight and a sophisticated display engine. With its exceptional performance and the clear LCD advantages of light weight, reduced depth and installation flexibility, the BVM-L230 is a deserving successor to CRT broadcast reference monitors.

The BKM-250TG 3G-SDI interface board is compliant with the SMPTE 425 standard and requires only one single SDI cable to transmit up to 10-bit 4:2:2 1080P/60P video signals. This optional 3G-SDI interface offers a simple cabling solution for groups of video equipment rack-mounted behind an editing room.
