Press release from FSM
After extensive research, post-production company FSM has committed to replacing its grade 1 monitors with the Sony OLED range.
Bernie Lloyd, FSM Head of Engineering, said: “With the agonizingly slow death of CRT monitors, we’ve not had an industry standard for some time.Precision monitoring is essential for accurate colour grading, VFX and compositing and it’s only now we feel comfortable with the options available.”
The PVM-2541 OLED monitor, supplied by Lemac, delivers un-matched picture quality with high-value performance features and functions.
Sony’s 25-inch Super Top Emission OLED display panel benefits from superb black performance, wide colour gamut, and quick response with virtually no motion blur. By combining the full HD, 10-bit driver and Sony’s OLED processing technologies, the monitor delivers groundbreaking picture quality.
The PVM-2541 monitor employs a software-based white balance calibration function. Combined with a commercially available calibration tool, this function enables simple adjustment of the monitor’s white balance.
Rick Schweikert, FSM Managing Director said: “Consistency is the key here. While the professional market jumps between older CRTs, un-calibrated LCD and domestic plasmas, it’s often impossible to be assured of what our clients are looking at.”
“Top-end grading and finishing is fundamental to our business, we thrive on it. By establishing a room-by-room consistency using the Sony OLED we can feel confident what you see in one room is replicated in another. Not many in the industry can say that.”
