Just got this press release to tell us that LG have got two new TFT displays that comprise its 32 Series. These are the 17inch L1732P and 19inch L1932P which boast a quick response time of 4ms, and a brightness of 300 candelas per square metre. They have a native resolution of 1280x1024 pixels and a wide viewing angle of 170 degrees in both the horizontal and vertical planes.
Initially the L1732P is available with a contrast ratio of 700:1, and then in April the L1732P and L1932P will be updated with LG’s DFC (Digital Fine Contrast) technology to increase the contrast ratio to a whopping 1400:1.
Increasing the contrast ratio makes colours brighter, images become more vivid and text looks sharper and clearer on the page. This technology uses the F-Engine - the world’s first picture enhancing chip – which optimises images through local colour manipulations in Movie, Text and Picture modes to create a crisper and clearer image.
The circular stand allows the screen to swivel from side to side and in addition the screen has both pivot and tilt functions and the height can also be adjusted. The pivot function uses Forte Pivot technology to automatically switch the display between portrait and landscape mode when the pivot is used.
This huge range of adjustment means that you can get the perfect seating position which will assist your posture and reduce aches and strains. In addition the ‘Fine Window’ feature allows the user to enhance the picture in a specific zone without enhancing the rest of the image which is ideal for Forte Manager control, Task tray icon and the context menu.
The 32 Series offers DVI and VGA connectors to give the customer the choice of an analogue or digital connection for their PC or Mac, while the power cord plugs directly into the screen with no external power adaptor to reduce untidy cabling to a minimum. Both models are fully compliant with the TCO-03 standard.
The L1732P is available now at a suggested price of £249 incl. VAT and the L1932P will be available from 6 April at a suggested price of £299 incl. VAT.
