Sony has introduced a new professional video monitor designed for creators who need precise image control. The monitor features built-in HDR scopes, giving users real-time feedback on brightness, color, and contrast. This helps ensure accurate grading and consistent results across different viewing environments.

The display supports multiple HDR formats, including HLG and PQ. It offers high peak brightness and deep blacks, making it suitable for both studio and field use. Engineers developed the monitor with input from cinematographers and colorists to meet real-world production needs.
Users can switch between waveform, vectorscope, and parade views directly on screen. These tools appear in an overlay that does not interfere with the main image. The interface is simple, so operators can access key functions quickly without digging through menus.
The monitor also includes 3D LUT support and calibration options. This allows teams to match footage across cameras and maintain look consistency throughout post-production. Connectivity covers SDI, HDMI, and Ethernet, supporting modern workflows on set and in editing suites.
Sony says the new model builds on its legacy of broadcast-grade displays. It targets documentary filmmakers, live event crews, and commercial studios. The company plans to ship units globally next month. Pricing will vary by region but stays within the range of other high-end reference monitors.

Early testers report the HDR scopes save time during color sessions. They say the display reacts fast to changes and shows fine detail clearly. Sony expects the monitor to become a standard tool in color-critical environments.
