The PVM-740 is a 7.4-inch 960 x 540 pixel resolution portable monitor designed for professional users  that offers picture contrast greater than a CRT display and is less affected by ambient light, allowing images to be viewed even in strong sunlight.
The OLED Monitor can fit a range of professional monitoring applications, including studio editing, ENG and EFT production, OB trucks, and even research and development. It is also ideal for use in 3D camera rigs with its flip mode.
The monitor is equipped with standard interface connectors: a composite video, a 3G/HD/SD-SDI, and an HDMI interface.
With the 3G-SDI interface, it accepts 1080/50p and 1080/60p formats, which is compliant with the SMPTE 425 standard, transmitting up to 4:2:2/10-bit 1080/60p and 1080/50pvideo data using one SDI cable. As sports and live production move toward a 1080p system, this single-link 3G-SDI system can be an ideal solution.
Sony plans to release the PVM-740 in April at a suggested price of US$3,850.
