Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/b9b38a/professional_video) has announced the addition of the "Professional Video Monitors" report to their offering. Replacing CRTs as reference monitors in broadcast, post and other professional applications. The Need: The broadcast video and cinema production and post-production businesses have historically used high-end CRT monitors to view the work in progress as part of the editing process. Now however, there is an increasing use of LCD and other technology monitors to replace CRTs in this application. This is due, in part, to the fact that high-end CRTs are no longer in production and substitutes must be found before the existing stock is exhausted. LCD monitors have different electronic and visual properties than CRTs, so it is necessary to understand the technology before making the transition. Report Objective: The objective of this report is to supply monitor manufacturers, equipment distributors video and film production and post-production houses and independent video content creators with the information needed in the switch from CRT to LCD monitors. In addition to a discussion of the existing CRT and LCD technology, the report will cover other technologies that may play a role in the future.
