EIZO Releases New 24.1-inch Color Management Monitor with HDR Support

EIZO Corporation has introduced the 24.1-inch ColorEdge CG2400S color management monitor, the successor to the ColorEdge CG2420. It is the first 24.1-inch monitor in the CG series to feature HDR workflow support for professional creatives, as well as the first monitor in the ColorEdge lineup to have its housing made from recycled plastic for reducing environmental impact.

Designed to meet the diverse needs of professional creatives in fields such as photography, video editing, design, and print, the CG2400S features WUXGA (1920 x 1200) resolution on a 24.1-inch screen. With a typical contrast ratio of 1800:1, the highest in the ColorEdge CG series, the monitor produces true blacks to ensure shadows are rendered in high detail and lifelike accuracy. It is also equipped with a retardation film to overcome color distortion from optical shifts, allowing tones to retain their depth even when viewed from an angle.

The CG2400S is the first 24.1-inch model in the CG series to support the hybrid log-gamma (HLG) transfer function and perceptual quantization (PQ) curve for displaying and editing HDR content. These optimized gamma curves render images more accurately to how the human eye perceives the real world compared to SDR, ensuring professional creators can reliably work in HDR. 

The monitor features a USB Type-C input for seamless connection to notebook PCs with a single cable, reducing cable clutter and eliminating the need to reconnect multiple peripherals so users can start creating instantly. This convenient, multi-purpose connectivity also supplies up to 70W of power to connected devices, eliminating the need for a laptop’s bulky power supply unit, and enabling a faster, more efficient setup when moving between creative workspaces or working remotely.

The CG2400S is equipped with EIZO’s award-winning built-in sensor technology and proprietary ColorNavigator 7 color management software, allowing users to effortlessly calibrate the monitor automatically at designated times. This eliminates the need for a third-party calibration device and ensures the screen maintains color accuracy over time.

When using the CG2400S in the video production workflow, the Sync Signal function automatically adjusts the monitor’s settings, such as input range and color format, according to the video signal. Furthermore, system managers can utilize the monitor’s Pixel Inspection function to verify that technical settings match the current project’s predefined color parameters. These convenient functions ensure creators are always working within the correct parameters, minimizing the risk of costly rework and production delays.

In line with EIZO’s commitment to transitioning its products to more environmentally conscious materials and packaging as part of its company-wide sustainability efforts, the CG2400S is the first monitor in the ColorEdge series to use recycled plastics in its housing. Made of over 85% recycled plastic, one of the highest among EIZO’s monitors, it helps reduce plastic waste, conserve resources, and promote the reuse of materials to preserve the natural ecosystem. It is also securely packaged using molded pulp made from recycled cardboard and newspaper instead of environmentally unfriendly materials.
