Sony LMD-A240 Reviews

Great middle of the road LCD

By ryan
Rated 4 out of 5
Date: 2022-02-02

Over the past month I have tested 3 separate esteemed LCD panel manufactures, along side the defacto (and classic) Sony A250 OLED as a reference point for image quality. The LMD-A240 has out performed the monitors I put to this test. Most comparable in contrast ratio, in shadow and highlight detail, most control over black point thanks to its backlight settings. Overall, as a middle of the road HD monitor, this panel has performed well. Note: a 4K x2400 [a-Si TFT Active Matrix LCD panel] @ $10,000 vs the LMD-A240 [a-Si TFT Active Matrix LCD panel] - monitored at 1080p had no image difference. If you need a 4K dual link monitoring workflow- this is NOT the monitor for you. But if you (like many of us DITs) still monitor in 1080 wireless video feeds.. this monitor competes!

These have the image quality of a mediocre computer monitor panel. Charging over $3,000 dollars for these is completely ridiculous. I commonly spend between 3 and 10 thousand dollars on my monitors and these are a deep disappointment. Do not recommend for any application.

question

What is the brightness of this monitor?
Asked by: Sam H.
Sony does not list the brightness that we can find. We would then guess a typical range of 200 and 300 nits for this monitor.
