Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

The viewing angle relates to the angle, beneath which the contrast is better than 10:1. These are normally values of 160° to 178°. These values do not provide any information about what enormous differences in contrast may result within the viewing angle. The contrasts should not change significantly for users with a perpendicular view and a slightly side-on view. It must not make a difference whether the viewer is looking at the middle of the image or the edge of the image. How much the contrast stability varies with different LCD technologies is best checked using a measurement diagram or by a direct visual comparison. The more stable the contrast in the user's viewing frustum, the better the image rendering.

The MacBook Pro 13” requires 9V/3A as a power supply and for charging. The USB-C port of the EV2780 is suitable for this purpose. 
Please note our firmware update for the EIZO FlexScan EV2780 model in this case.

Smart Resolution is a technology patented by EIZO, which checks the screen content for noise and blurring. Smart Resolution ensures that noise is not amplified and sharpens the image by correcting blurring. For a game, for example, Smart Resolution can resharpen the image to make it seem more life-like. For other content, such as photos and websites, Smart Resolution differentiates between skin tones and improves how they look.

The remote control makes it easier for the user to adjust the screen optimally. Important functions are available intuitively at the press of a button. This includes: Switching between a console, video player, computer, picture in picture, game and through mode, as well as volume, bass, depth and level.

EIZO monitors are normally equipped with two or more signal inputs. You can seamlessly switch back and forth between two or more PCs by pressing a button, signal 1-2 or "S", depending on the model.

No, you do not need a driver. The monitors are identified via the signaling line and then installed as a standard or plug & play monitor.

The color temperature is a benchmark for measuring the white tone and is stated in Kelvin. At high temperatures, the white tone appears slightly blue, while it has a more red tone at low temperatures.
5000 K: Often used in the printing industry.
6500 K: Suitable for displaying photos and video images.

4K UHD describes a resolution of 3840 x 2160, compared to a resolution of 4096 x 2160 for 4K-DCI. 4K DCI is commonly used in the film industry.
