i got this screen to use for editing and color grading monitor. calibrated to REC 709 using Dreamcolor calibration solution and connected using HDMI cable. but the red channel saturation is over the limit and not accurate. im not sure if i need an SDI to HDMI converter and dont want to spend more money just to test. im trying to contact HP and seems they don't have enough support Staff , live chat always off and no answer for my email. seems this screen going to sit on my disk as the most expensive computer screen i ever got :( never buy this monitor, its worthless and not pro at all.

Is the HP Z27x compatible/does it work well with the 2013 Mac Pro?
Asked by: Jim
The monitor has a DisplayPort and an HDMI input, so if your computer has either of those outputs you can simply connect the appropriate cable. If it has some other kind of video output you'll need an adapter for it to work.

question

HP's March 2017 firmware added direct support for the retail version of the X-Rite i1Display Pro color calibration device. Has this been verified as working? (I already have the i1D Pro, and would consider purchasing the Z27x if I knew it was compatible.)
Asked by: Kris
Unfortunately at this moment it doesn't seem it works properly. Consumers are reporting receiving an error.

question

Is this monitor able to utilize its color engine operating in REC 709 color space when connected to a new MacPro? The old DreamColor monitors were not able to do this.

Yes, this monitor has that capability.

Hi, can I use the Blackmagic Mini Monitor to view 4k with this screen? Thanks!
Asked by: ray
I'm afraid this monitor only displays a 2560 X 1440 resolution so it will not support 4k.
