Eizo ColorEdge CG222W 22.2" Widescreen LCD Display
The ColorEdge CG222W 22.2" Widescreen LCD Display from EIZO is a high-quality monitor built with video professionals and graphic designers in mind. The monitor features a high 800:1 contrast ratio, a wide 178°/178° viewing angle, and a 16ms response time.
The monitor is designed for use in environments where accurate color is essential. It features a factory calibrated gamma, a monitor hood, brightness stabilization, and ColorNavigator calibration software. The monitor is a flat panel, which saves desk space. That, along with other features, makes it a great choice for video editors and graphic designers alike.
- True Color for Professionals
- This display features professional-level color controls that allow you to use it when working with color correction for video or print graphic design. This makes the monitor an ideal choice for professional designers and editors. The monitor features 16-bit processing for exceptional color and grayscale reproduction.
- ColorNavigator Calibration Software
- The included software for Windows or Macintosh allows you to perform 12-bit hardware color calibration on your monitor. It requires an X-Rite or ColorVision measurement device to function; neither of which are included with the display.
- Factory Adjustment of Gamma
- EIZO calibrates this monitor to produce a gamma value of 2.2. Users who require a different level of gamma can use the monitor's 12-Bit Look-Up Table (LUT) to adjust the values from 1.0 to 2.6 when using a digital connection.
- Brightness Stabilization Function
- The brightness stabilization function helps to maintain a consistent brightness when using the monitor. It uses a drift correction sensor as well as temperature monitoring to ensure consistent brightness.
- USB 2.0 Hub
- The monitor features an integrated 2-port USB 2.0 hub. Simply connect the monitor to your computer via USB 2.0 and you'll be able to connect two USB 2.0 devices directly to the display.
- Wide Viewing Angle
- The monitor features a 178° horizontal viewing angle and a 178° vertical viewing angle, making it easy to view the display from almost any angle.
- Small Footprint
- The monitor's small footprint and ability to be wall-mounted or arm-mounted help conserve often-scarce space on your desk. The monitor ships mounted on a stand that supports pivot, tilt and height adjustment for enhanced ergonomics.
- Dual DVI-I Inputs
- The monitor features dual DVI-I digital inputs. DVI-I inputs can receive both digital DVI signals as well as analog VGA signals. DVI to DVI and VGA to DVI cables are both included with the display.

Comments about Eizo ColorEdge CG222W 22.2" Widescreen LCD Display:
I am a professional photographer and use the monitor for color print and web matching. The monitor has Excellent contrast and color capabilities. The only reason that I did not give the product 5 stars was that I was disappointed it did not have full manual control over brightness and color so that I could use the standard color and brightness software that came with the x-rite eye-one display 2 puck. The software that came with the monitor however does a good job at matching the color after some experimentation with the settings.

Comments about Eizo ColorEdge CG222W 22.2" Widescreen LCD Display:
I have struggled with color calibration since beginning in photography. I've tried to get around investing in a monitor, but am so sorry now that I didn't take this step sooner. It is saving me time, money (from discarded prints), and anguish! My photographs are coming back from the printer exactly as I see them. Easy to set up and use. I've recommended it to other photographers and would buy it again!

Comments about Eizo ColorEdge CG222W 22.2" Widescreen LCD Display:
I bought this monitor and added it to my 2007 iMac for photo editing and soft-proofing. The web reviews regarding Eizo are superb; unlike many options out there, this Eizo model is optimized for low brightness operation ... perfect for soft proofing.The monitor is absolutely the perfect size when paired with a 20" iMac. Hook up was a no brainer; my iMac instantly recognized the monitor and I was calibrating in no time. The included calibration software is the simplest I've ever used. You need to purchase a calibration device separately (you use Eizo's software with someone else's hardware). If you are connecting this monitor to a Mac, you will need a Mini DVI to DVI-I adapter or a MiniDisplay Port to DVI-I adapter depending on your computer. Pay attention when you buy this adapter - Apple's adapters are DVI-D only and will not work with the DVI-I cable supplied by Eizo. I found a Mini DVI to DVI-I adapter made by Dynex and it worked perfectly.I'm very happy with the monitor's performance. Colors are even edge to edge, and the ability to rotate from landscape to portrait is really useful. I've never operated two monitors before, and let me tell you, it's a big step up. I have photoshop tools open and expanded on one monitor and my image displayed full size on the other. It's a terrific way to work. The included hood also makes a big difference; it does a great job of shielding glare from overhead lights.[...] I'm very satisfied with this purchase ... highly recommended. If you are looking for a high-end graphic arts monitor but don't want to spend the really really big bucks, this monitor is a great choice.

Comments about Eizo ColorEdge CG222W 22.2" Widescreen LCD Display:
As a graphic designer I have found this monitor to be the most color accurate I have experienced. It needed very little calibration, color was very close right out of the box. I used the Mac OS X monitor calibration software which seemed to be sufficient. Not having purchased the optional sensor I was concerned I would be at a disadvantage but it seems unnecessary. Very compatible with my G5, the computer actually runs faster now than with the old CRT.
Only drawback is the color preview in layout programs is very off. Looks great in Photoshop and Acrobat pdfs but Quark is not even close. Don't know the cause, have not researched a remedy yet.
Well worth the cost. Wish I could have afforded the larger size.

Comments about Eizo ColorEdge CG222W 22.2" Widescreen LCD Display:
This is a very high quality replacement to my aging Sony display - great size, color gamut. Elegant stand for hiding cables. Driven by two computers, and easy to switch between them. My only disappointment relates to the documentation: irrelevant, and missing useful information. For a monitor this expensive, I'm surprised Eizo hasn't devoted more resource to this last detail.

Comments about Eizo ColorEdge CG222W 22.2" Widescreen LCD Display:
After doing much research through the miriad of monitors available I decided this was the one for my needs.
I intend to use it primarily for digital photo viewing and editing and secondary for normal every day use .
Once I got through the set up and opened some of my digital photos, I was amazed at the clarity and quality of the display, which is even better than I had anticipated.I have yet to do the color calibration profiling but settings out of the box are excellant.The ony thing I found a little lacking were the set up instructions which leave out some details.

Comments about Eizo ColorEdge CG222W 22.2" Widescreen LCD Display:
I did not give 5 Stars because I am not a "pro" so I don't know what a more expensive monitor can do. I'll tell you that this monitor has made all the difference in the world when it comes to my workflow in photo/image work. The colors are great, set up is extremely quick and easy, calibration is a snap. Some may be concerned about the 200cd/m2 max. or the suggested 80cd/m2 recommended luminance setting. NO problem, this monitor is plenty bright.
I would highly recommend this to the advanced amateur or pro who wants a great monitor without spending $2000 and up.
