Sony PVM-X 4K HDR Monitors

PVM-X series monitors expand footprints in 4K HDR production
Expand your 4K HDR production and color match with the industry-leading BVM-HX series Master Monitor. With its compact size and high portability, the PVM-X series monitors bring all-white luminance of 1000 cd/㎡* to production monitoring across a wide range of applications.
*Panel specification. This is a typical luminance value at D65 (x, y = 0.3127, 0.329), but not guaranteed.

Acclaimed TRIMASTER™ image technology
Sony's TRIMASTER™ architecture is purpose-built to get the highest performance from professional displays. Its core technologies deliver accurate color reproduction, precise imaging and remarkable consistency in picture quality. Advanced panel controls and signal processing have been refined for the ultimate experience in image reproduction.

Consistent color matching
Make sure every part of your production works with the same high-grade images. Whether you’re filming HD or 4K, our PVM-X Series Monitors seamlessly color match with the BVM-HX Series 4K HDR Master Monitors and LMD-A Series HD HDR Picture Monitors. The premium LCD panel offers 1000 cd/m²* luminance for easy on-set, studio and in-truck monitoring.

More efficient productions and HDR-to-SDR conversion
Move efficiently between HDR and SDR with the optional PVML-HSX1 HDR-SDR conversion license for live production. And convert color spaces, OETF, progressive to interlace, quad-link 3G to single-link 12G, and 4K to HD at the same time. Compare HDR and converted SDR images side by side and output converted pictures to other 4K or HD monitors too, via the enhanced monitor output.

A free trial of the fully featured PVML-HSX1 license is available* for up to 240 hours of monitor run time and is automatically activated.

*From V3.0 firmware. The trial timing is linked to the monitor's internal clock. The time will count down whether you are using the license or not.

Adaptive contrast for quick reviews
Enabling you to confirm the total balance of highlights and low lights at a glance, thanks to our Dynamic Contrast Drive. Backlight luminance adapts so you can easily review the balance of highlights and low lights. Enjoy better black representation during night scenes and clearer highlights in brighter, daylight filming. Access a dynamic contrast ratio of 1,000,000:1 with the press of a single function key by default (F12 key).

Find every detail in the shadows
Monitor the details in darker areas of your image, with three Black Detail Modes for a range of lighting situations. Black level is reduced without affecting gamma, so you can inspect the shadow with the correct colors and gray scale intact. Easily move between modes with pre-assigned function keys by default (F10 key for mid/F11 key for high).

Control the image with 4K & HD scopes with HDR/SDR scale
Display a waveform monitor, vector scope and color gamut scope* simultaneously, with scales for both HDR and SDR. Confirm the input signal level and output luminance, with a choice of three waveform displays, luminance, RGB/YCBCR parade or RGB overlay with the gamut error display.
*From V3.0 firmware

Quad view display for multiple looks
Explore and compare settings, with a quad-view display* that shows everything you need. Individual settings are available for EOTF (in SDR and HDR), SDI/HDMI, RGB/YCBCR, color space, transfer matrix, color temperature, contrast and brightness. Each display view can apply User 3D LUTs and it’s even possible to display scopes in dual and triple picture modes.
*Only in HD input sources

A wide choice of 4K connections
A range of built-in standard input interfaces can simplify systems and streamline productions of all scales: 12G/6G/3G/HD-SDI BNC (x2), 3G/HD-SDI BNC (x2) and HDMI* (x1). 12G simplifies wiring, from simple to large-scale field systems. Quad￾link 3G-SDI supports more “traditional” devices, while HDMI simplifies interfacing with devices such as rasterizers, multi-viewers, digital cameras, set top boxes, UHD Blu-ray players and PCs.
