Leader to Demo HDR Test and Measurement at Media Production Show

Leader Electronics will demonstrate the HDR measurement capabilities of its LV5490 Ultra HD multi-screen video and audio test instrument at the Media Production Show in London, UK, which takes place on June 12th and 13th.

The LV5490 waveform monitor offers Ultra HD, 3G, HD and SD test and measurement features with a Full HD 9″ front-panel monitor. The company says the device provides all the capabilities needed to implement the full potential of high dynamic range in both HD and Ultra HD.

Signal displays such as video waveform, chroma levels, colour vectors, bar graphs, noise, video patterns, quad-3G phase, data tables, camera picture output, colour chart, multi-channel audio levels and surround-sound vectors can be viewed simultaneously in a customisable layout. If a specific element requires detailed attention, it can be selected quickly for viewing at higher resolution or in full-screen.

The company’s Cinelite HDR toolset also comes as a standard feature of the LV5490, allowing assessment of relative exposure and overall luminance during production. A focus-assist option allows on-set adjustment of camera focus to match the ability of Ultra HD formats.

The LV5490 also provides 1080p DVI and SDI feeds for connecting external monitors. Simultaneous viewing of up to four 3Gbps SDI inputs is possible, including overlays. The size and location of individual channels can be adjusted on the display using a USB pointer so the user is not limited to fixed-size quadrants. Operators can select the size and position of the measuring area as well as the Y/G/B/R component channel.
