Panasonic BT-LH1700WP LCD MONITOR in Soft Carry Case

The Panasonic BT-LH1700WP is a 17.1-inch professional broadcast LCD monitor engineered for studio monitoring, field production, and critical image evaluation in demanding video environments. Built around a high-performance wide liquid crystal display panel, this monitor delivers outstanding color reproduction, wide viewing angles, and high-speed response essential for broadcast professionals who require accurate image assessment. Color temperature can be selected from preset values or customized anywhere from 3000K to 9300K, while precise gamma properties are maintained with 256-step RGB compensation to match specific production requirements.

Connectivity is comprehensive for professional workflows, featuring dual SDI inputs with automatic HD/SD switching, component Y/Pb/Pr with RGB switching, Y/C, and composite video inputs. The monitor supports a wide range of broadcast formats including 1080i, 720p, 480/576i, and 1080/23.98PsF, making it versatile for multiformat production environments. Advanced processing eliminates delay from interlace-to-progressive conversion, providing immediate image output critical for live production applications.

Monitoring tools elevate production efficiency significantly. The waveform monitor (WFM) display can be overlaid as a picture-in-picture in any corner of the screen, enabling simultaneous program viewing and signal analysis. A split-screen function freezes a frame of video for side-by-side comparison with live camera feeds, while Diagonal Line Compensation reduces jagged noise in diagonal lines. The monitor supports both parallel remote control (GPI) and serial remote control (RS-232C), integrating seamlessly into existing broadcast infrastructures. An optional embedded audio unit (BT-YAE1700G) can be attached for audio monitoring capabilities. The rack-mountable design allows installation in standard 19-inch equipment racks, making it a trusted tool for broadcast professionals who demand accuracy and reliability.
