Laizeske DR173DSW 17.3″ Full HD 3G-SDI/ HDMI LED-Backlit Production Monitor Overview

The DR173DSW 17.3″ 3G-SDI/ HDMI LED-Backlit Production Monitor from Laizeske offers a native resolution of 1920 x 1080 and can display up to 16.7 million color images. The monitor’s rear panel features two 3G/HD/SD-SDI, HDMI, and YPbPr inputs and outputs that support all HD, SD, and analog video signals. For audio, it features left/right audio inputs, one 3.5mm stereo headphone jack on the front panel, and built-in speaker.

The monitor comes with front and rear 3-color (red, green, and yellow) tally lights, which are controlled via a DB-9 port on the rear side. The built-in waveform monitoring functions allow simultaneous viewing of two independent sources with convenient switching between monitoring or scope views whenever required. In the All Scopes Mode, the video shrinks approximately to the size of the display and tiles your choice of vectorscope, histogram, and waveform on the border.

The monitor comes with a V-mount battery mounting plate that attaches to the rear side. It can either be powered using the included 12 VDC adapter or via lithium batteries through a standard 4-pin XLR connector.
