EIZO ColorEdge CG2700S 27″ 2K HDR Color Management Monitor

This flagship 27-inch monitor marks a new generation of ColorEdge with a new exterior design. With 2K WQHD (2560 x 1440) resolution, 400 cd/m² high brightness, and HDR gamma support, the monitor reproduces content in remarkable detail. USB Type-C connectivity provides a streamlined experience so professionals in video editing, game development, photography, and more can focus on creating.

2K WQHD Resolution

The ColorEdge CG2700S displays at 2K WQHD (2560 x 1440) resolution. The 27-inch screen provides ample space for displaying Full HD content in full with enough space to show toolbars, palettes, and other windows or applications. This makes the monitor versatile for video editing, 3DCG creation, game development, photography, and other creative fields. EIZO also offers a 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) model with the ColorEdge CG2700X for creators focused on 4K content.

Single Cable Connection with USB Type-C

The ColorEdge CG2700S features USB Type-C connectivity that allows you to display video, transmit USB signals, and supply power to a connected device such as a tablet or notebook PC. This convenient multi-purpose connectivity makes it faster and easier to connect when moving between workstations or working remotely.

Power Delivery

The ColorEdge CG2700S reliably charges a MacBook Pro or other high-end laptops with 92W of power delivery. This eliminates the need for a laptop’s bulky power supply unit, freeing up space in your bag and on the desk.

Stable Network Connection

While many modern laptops are not equipped with a dedicated LAN port, the monitor has one directly built in for stable wired connection. Connecting a laptop via USB Type-C provides access to the network through the monitor for sharing creative assets and files, carrying out post production work remotely, and enabling network-based color management via ColorNavigator Network.

Built-In Sensor to Automate Your Workflow

The ColorEdge CG2700S’ built-in sensor can be set to calibrate the monitor automatically at designated times. This eliminates the need for a third-party calibration device and ensures your screen stays color accurate. In addition, the sensor swings onto the screen, taking up minimal space and allowing you to continue working even during calibration.

ColorNavigator 7 Color Management Software

The monitor’s wide color gamut faithfully reproduces 98% of the DCI-P3 standard used in digital cinema and supports the BT.2020 standard used in broadcasting. In addition, it covers 99% of the Adobe RGB color space so images shot in Adobe RGB will be displayed correctly. It also covers almost the entire ISO-coated and US web-coated CMYK color spaces used in printing.

3D LUT for Accurate Color Display

The monitor uses a 3D LUT which adjusts colors individually on an RGB cubic table. With the supported ColorNavigator 7 software’s emulation function, creators can check how content will appear to their audience. The 3D LUT also improves the monitor’s additive color mixture (combination of RGB), which is a key factor in its ability to display neutral gray tones.

10-Bit Simultaneous Display

Using the DisplayPort or HDMI input, the ColorEdge monitor offers 10-bit simultaneous display from a 16-bit look-up-table (LUT), which means it can show more than one billion colors simultaneously. This is 64 times more colors than you get with an 8-bit display, resulting in smooth color gradations and reduced Delta-E between two adjacent colors.

Please note that a graphics board and software which support 10-bit output are also necessary for 10-bit display. Equipment that supports DeepColor is required for 10-bit display when connected via HDMI.

Broadcast and Cinema Presets

Preset modes for DCI-P3, BT.709, and BT.2020 ensure you can work in the appropriate color spaces and gamma values. In addition, preset modes for PQ (DCI and BT.2100) and HLG (BT.2100) are available for viewing HDR content. With the built-in calibration sensor, you can conveniently adjust or maintain the brightness setting for each preset.

HDR Gamma Support

The ColorEdge CG2700S features a high brightness level of 400 nits. It supports 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). This ensures professional creators can reliably display HDR content for editing and color grading.

True Black Display

In compliance with the DCI standard, the monitor offers a high contrast ratio of 1600:1 for producing true blacks that are otherwise difficult to display on a typical LCD monitor. CG Series monitors are also equipped with a retardation film which allows tones to retain their depth, even when viewed from an angle.

Luminance Warning

The monitor includes a function that shows the areas of the image that cannot be displayed correctly at the current brightness settings. These areas are marked in yellow or magenta and can be viewed for brightness levels of 300, 500, 1000, and 4000 nits.

Automatic Color Settings

To ensure color settings stay consistent throughout production, the monitor includes a Sync Signal function which automatically adjusts the monitor’s settings, such as input range and input color format, according to the video signal.

5-Year Manufacturer’s Warranty

ColorEdge monitors are backed by a manufacturer’s 5-year warranty that covers all components including the LCD panel*. EIZO manufactures its products at its own factories to allow close control over production quality and ensure each monitor is built to last.

*Usage time is limited to 30,000 hours.

Zero Bright Pixels

EIZO guarantees its ColorEdge monitors will be free from bright sub-pixels for six months from the date of purchase.

Brightness and Color Warranty

The brightness and color of the ColorEdge CG2700X is warranted for up to 10,000 hours from the date of purchase. When used at a color temperature of 5000 – 6500K, a brightness level of at least 120 cd/m² is warranted.

Certified for Quality and Performance

The monitor is recognized by Fogra as a Class A FograCert Softproof Monitor. Using it in a FograCert Softproofing System ensures designers, print specifiers, and print producers can rely on the soft proof for predictable and consistent results.
