OPTIONS
Sidewalls
The additional of sidewalls reduces the influence from high ambient lighting and provides tighter control of the viewing environment. Available for all models.
Dimming Models
Visual color comparison between a color monitor and a transparency, print, or proof is
significantly enhanced by bringing the light intensity of the viewing system closer to the
light output of the monitor. (Designated with a "D" after the model number.) Optional lower luminaire ("x" model) enhances light uniformity.
Ideal for soft proofing & color management
