The DP-V1710 UHD 4K Reference Display is perfect for new or retrofit applications in broadcast studios and mobile production vans.
The DP-V1710 fits inside 19" racks making it an excellent choice for broadcast vans that are subject to space and weight restrictions.
The DP-V1710 is also equipped with a REMOTE (parallel mode) terminal, which means that it can be controlled remotely by a switcher or other device. This helps make this display indispensable for supporting 4K in existing outside broadcast vans.
The DP-V1710 UHD 4K Reference Display is equipped with four 6G-SDI terminals. As a result, 4K 60P video that up until now has required four SDI cables can now be received on two SDI cables, thus helping to simplify installation and production needs. Providing four terminals also allows 4K 60P video to be received and switched on two lines, which helps improve efficiency when confirming video.
The DP-V1710 UHD 4K Reference Display supports broadcast/digital cinema EOTFs, as well as Canon's own proprietary Canon Log/2/3, and the latest HDR EOTFs, Hybrid Log-Gamma (ITU-R BT.2100) and SMPTE ST 2084. Providing various EOTFs in this way powerfully supports on-location confirmation of video. Up to eight 1D-LUTs created separately can also be imported.
The DP-V1710 UHD 4K Reference Display supports split-screen display of HDR and SDR signals. Since video can be displayed simultaneously on the left and right screens, differences in luminance ranges and gradation/brightness can be compared at a glance, thus allowing HDR shooting to be conducted with more confidence and efficiency.
Various other features can be combined to make HDR production easier to perform: Range Compression Display according to specific production applications, Clipped Display, Camera Information Display, and Waveform Monitor Display. The DP-V1710 fits inside 19" racks making it an excellent choice for broadcast vans that are subject to space and weight restrictions.
The waveform monitor can be selected to display HDR scales (e.g. SMPTE ST 2084 nit) or Canon Log (%) for maximum flexibility in HDR production.
Variable adjustment of the HDR range is possible to suit specific applications. For example, the dynamic range of the HDR standard signal or LOG signal can be displayed to fit within the luminance supported by the display main unit (range compression), or required actual luminance parts of the range can be displayed with the highlight range area excluded (range upper limit clipping). Desired values can also be registered in advance to function buttons or channel buttons. This lets you call up respective HDR standard videos for confirmation by one-touch operation.
Metadata information (color gamut, gamma, maximum luminance, average luminance maximum value of content) from PCs for HDMI-compatible video editing and Blu-ray players, cameras and other devices can be displayed on screen.
The DP-V1710 UHD 4K Reference Display provides a black level superior to older CRT displays. What's more, by ensuring accurate gradation precision afforded by liquid crystal displays, a higher black reproduction can be achieved compared with that of CRT displays and OLEDs, on which black defects are likely to occur in the shadow areas, thus helping to improve video production quality.
The Camera Link-Up feature of the reference display allows seamless linking to the ARRI ALEXA SXT camera system, providing for increased flexibility on-set for camera assistants and DITs.
When an ARRI Camera system is connected to the DP-V1711, the camera's metadata can be obtained, and its contents can be displayed. This means that camera set up and confidence checks during shooting can all be done on the reference display itself rather than on the camera's viewfinder or display. This allows checks without disturbing the operator and increases on set flexibility. (This feature is available when the 3G/HD-SDI format has been selected by ARRI Camera system.)
An image quality link-up function automatically switches the image quality of the display based on the camera's meta information. This function is established while the ARRI Camera system is connected to the DP-V1711. The fact that the image quality settings are linked automatically for the camera and for the display means that setting errors can be minimized.
Presetting by Cinema EOS System's Canon Log/Canon Log2/Canon Log3 and the ARRI Log C video display are also supported. Log C is preset to the main unit menu. So, all you have to do to check image quality is connect to the camera without having to go through the trouble of adding on any special LUTs.
The DP-V1710 UHD 4K Reference Display allows you to set multiple LUTs (8) for each picture mode, same as the DP-V2410 and DP-V2420.
As a result, users can select up to eight LUTs in one picture mode for improved convenience. In addition, presets from CDL1 to CDL15 and a CDL details setting screen have been added. Users can also change the name settings for CDL1 to CDL15.
The display has a Direct-type white LED backlight and IPS liquid crystal panel in order to achieve the high-image-quality performance that is optimally suited for the shooting locations. In addition to satisfying a multiple number of the latest broadcast standards such as ITU-R BT.709, EBU and SMPTE-C as well as the latest DCI-P3 digital cinema standard, it also meets the next-generation standards of ITU-R BT.2020 and ACESproxy, the transmission standards of ACES whose color management standard is advocated by AMPAS.
The DP-V1710 UHD 4K Reference Display achieves the same level of high-accuracy uniformity as the DP-V3010, DP-V2411 and DP-V2421 reference displays. By incorporating a proprietary image processor developed for use in displays to enable fine-tuned adjustments, any color and luminance unevenness on the screen can be prevented and high-accuracy uniformity can be achieved.
The high-accuracy display processor enables accurate gradation displays.
The DP-V1710 features a panel with a 3840 x 2160 resolution and a 16:9 aspect ratio. It can display signals compliant with the digital cinema and high-definition TV broadcast standards on a dot-by-dot basis in exhaustive detail. It makes its three expanded display modes available for 2K or full-HD video productions as well. In this way, it can be used as a FHD/2K/4K display in a wide range of applications, and it contributes to improving the efficiency of 4K/full-HD video production workflows.
The DP-V1710 is equipped with three types of screen scaling functions, including the Canon Shape Tracing technology™ an original shape-tracing technology that helps to minimize artifacts on images scaled on the DP-V1711. Using the Canon Shape Tracing technology, the DP-V1710 detects the angles of hard edges and selects an appropriate interpolation to help provide smooth diagonal lines and optimal image rendering, further extending the display's application during location/studio shoots and within color-grading, DI, CGI, VFX and other post-production workflows.
2-Sample Interleave is supported. This technology transmits up to four sub-imagers (2K/HD) that are obtained by dividing a 4K signal into 2-pixel units and re-assembling these together to make a 4K display. This also differs from Square Division in that, since images that are slightly out of position are sent, the angle of view can be confirmed even on 2K/HD monitors by displaying one of four inputs.
In the 2 split-screen display mode, the picture mode can be set independently on displays A and B. And, in the 2 split-screen display/4 split screen display mode, display of the division lines can be switched on and off. The camera information can be displayed at only one location (i.e. one input).
The functions of the DP-V2410 UHD 4K Reference Display have been carried out to allow selection of enlargement ratios (4x, 8x) and display at arbitrary positions. And, the provision of zooming modes 1 to 3 means that enlargement ratio and display position can be preset, thus improving ease of use.
The DP-V1710 features a peaking function that enables users to check the focus state at a glance. With high-definition video productions, this helps with the focus adjustment to bring the subjects into focus.
The DP-V1710 features a mode in which the display's fan is shut down for a prescribed period of time during camera shooting*. This mode can be linked with professional-use cameras, such as the cameras in the Cinema EOS System, to shut down the fan during recording. It can be useful when the noise of the fan would disturb the atmosphere in a studio or other quiet shooting location.
The DP-V1710 comes with waveform monitor and vectorscope functions. These are superimposed on the screen display. The signal level is displayed using the waveform monitor function (6 types: Y, Cr, Cb, R, G and B). The two color difference signals (Cb and Cr) are each displayed with "X axis/Y axis" using the vectorscope function.
