Alright you're looking at the HP LP2480zx, DreamColor Monitor.
And let me tell you guys, this thing, is absolutely ridiculous.
It's not a regular monitor, and there's a very small portion of people out there,
that will buy a monitor like this. But, for the people that need, the type of technology
this monitor has, it is the ultimate. There is nothing like it, it literally is 1 in a billion.
Let's just say that. There is nothing like it on the market. Now, let's talk about why
this monitor which is 24 inches and a 1000 to 1 contrast ratio,
6 millisecond response time, what's so special about it? I'll tell you why, it's about color.
It's all about the colors. Now, take a look at these pictures. These are pictures I took actually
down here in Miami, in Florida. Now, what's special about this monitor,
is that it's for color critical, situations. Pretty much when your color has to be completely
accurate. When you need to render color exactly perfectly when you need to have consistent results
when it needs to look perfect, all the time, and it needs to work for years, it's for professionals
it's for designers, it's for photographers, it's for video editors, but people that...
It's all about the color. Now, what makes this so important?
Or what makes this color so incredible on this monitor? What's different about it.
Well I'll tell you. A couple of things. First of all, this is the 30 bit panel.
Let that seep through your head. 30 bit panel that produces 1 billion possible color combinations.
So you can actually get 1 billion colors, out of this thing. Which is 64 times more,
than any other LCD on the market. Ok? Is this going through your head? 64 times more.
Ok, so that's incredible. Now, how does it do that? It uses a Tri-color LED backlight,
to do this. This is going to give you the darkest blacks you've ever seen. I mean look at that black
what's incredible about it is you still see the detail. You can't see it probably on YouTube,
but right here I can see all the feathers that are in this pitch black area. I can see all
of these feathers all through here, I see all the details. The whites,
the stuff that's white in the background, is not super white. Like over here,
not that white. It doesn't bleach out, I can still see the detail on this,
and that is where you get an amazing monitor. Doing things like that.
Now, another thing that's really cool about it, is that you have 7 programmable Color Spaces.
So watch. I'm going to push this button, you're going to see that I have an option for Color Space
right there, you click Color Space, and look. Here are you Color Space options.
You have your Adobe RGB, and SRGB, and then you have 7 custom user presets, Ok?
And those let you adjust your luminance, your gamma, your gamut, your white point,
and that pretty much gives you a complete Color Space, you can switch between them,
you can make up your own, absolutely incredible. Just because of that it's incredible,
the fact that you get like these CRT, like blacks, you don't need anything else,
I mean look at that. This... The color and the blacks in here are absolutely incredible,
all the detail, all the colors are completely precise, they're going to give you accurate
color rendition, which is really important when you're going those color critical applications.
So very very impressive. So, now, let's move on. Let's talk about the stand. That's another thing
that's pretty impressive about this. Taking a look at the stand, swivels down,
swivels up, it also rises up as high as you want, it rotates all the way over,
which is awesome. So pretty much completely ergonomic. You do whatever you want with it,
if you're a professional, having comfort, being comfortable at the right level,
in the right direction, makes things a lot easier on your life. Now,
there's still a lot more. Wait 'till you see the connectivity. First of all,
before we go into connectivity, 4 port USB hub.
Right there on the side. That's very convenient, that's very nice, you can plug in
all sorts of stuff there, your keyboard, your monitor, you can keep your workstation
under the desk, you keep this there. Now, I'm going to rotate it this way, again,
and bring the whole thing around so you can see the connectivity, 'cause this is ridiculous.
Get ready. Alright check out this incredible connectivity. Starting right here at the top,
you have the USB port for the USB hub, you have an on/off switch,
now here's where it gets crazy. You have composite, you have component,
you have digital S-Video, you have Dual Link DVI, you have Dual Link DVI,
you have HDMI 1.3b and you have DisplayPort 1.1.
So that's literally everything. I mean, what else is there? Are we missing anything?
VGA? Who's going to use VGA on this, you know, extremely insane monitor? Nobody, so...
That's the only thing that's not there, and for good reason, you're not going to use it.
This is an absolutely incredible monitor. I can't tell you enough about how cool it is,
the way that you go through your features, and you go through your inputs and stuff,
is so intuitive, it's so easy it's so fast it's so quick, it's much better than those ones
where you gotta like figure out what's going on. Those are really annoying.
This is really easy to use, incredible color, incredible detail.
Now let's talk about some of the last few specs. 24 inch, 1920 by 1200,
widescreen, 6 ms - GTG, 12 ms - Refresh, 1000 to 1 contrast ratio, native.
Besides that, you read the rest of the specs, 30 bit panel, billion colors.
A billion, with a 'b'. That's 64 times more. LED backlit, with Tri-Color LEDs,
amazing colors, that's what it's for, and then all the programmable Color Spaces that you can do.
This is the HP LP2480zx. Really long number. Really high performance. Insane monitor for
professionals, if you have questions on it email me, see you guys next time.
