The FlexScan S2233WFS-BK 22" LCD Computer Display from Eizo is a high-quality computer monitor built with color-critical applications in mind. The display supports a wide color gamut -- at any instant, it is capable of displaying 16.77 million colors from a palette of 1.06 billion. It features a 1680 x 1050 native resolution, 1200:1 contrast ratio, 350cd/m² brightness rating, 12ms response time, and 178°/178° viewing angle.
The display features 0.5W stereo speakers that are hidden from view -- providing audio output without sacrificing its clean and sleek design. An integrated 2-port USB 2.0 hub makes it easy to connect peripheral devices to the display. A number of preset modes, including a low-brightness setting to reduce eye fatigue, are available for your convenience. The display can connect to your computer via VGA, DVI-D, or DisplayPort. It ships with a FlexStand desktop stand that features adjustments for height, tilt, swivel, and pivot.
Three Inputs Including DisplayPort
Connect with up to three PCs via the monitor's VGA (analog), DVI-D (digital), and DisplayPort (digital) input terminals. DisplayPort is next-generation connectivity that transmits both video and audio signals
Six Preset Modes Including "EyeCare"
For optimum viewing of different kinds of content, Text, Movie, Picture, sRGB, Custom, and EyeCare preset modes are included. Available for the first time, "EyeCare" mode lowers brightness to a mere 3cd/m². This mode helps prevent eye fatigue in an environment with little or no lighting
Optimized Brightness with Auto EcoView
An Auto EcoView sensor on the front of the monitor measures ambient light and optimizes the screen's brightness to levels akin to viewing a sheet of paper under typical office lighting conditions. Since the screen is never too bright, eye strain is reduced while power consumption is cut by up to 43% compared to operating the monitor with Auto EcoView turned off and set to the default factory brightness of 100%
Zero Watts When Turned Off
When the monitor's power save mode and off timer function are set, it consumes less than 1.5 watts of power, and when turned off via the main power switch, it consumes no electricity at all
Energy Efficiency Gauge
To encourage environmental consciousness while working, a user-activated gauge called "EcoView Index" indicates energy consumption in correlation with the screen's brightness. When EcoView Index is fully illuminated, the monitor is operating at optimum energy efficiency
Wide Color Gamut
The monitor reproduces 95% of the Adobe RGB color space. This means it can display most colors of a photograph taken in a camera's Adobe RGB mode including many shades of cyan and emerald green that fall outside the color gamut of typical sRGB monitors
Placement Flexibility
The included height adjustable stand also offers tilt, swivel, and portrait mode viewing. For installations that require frequent rearrangement of equipment, a quick mount attachment option allows the monitor to be quickly and easily mounted and dismounted with the pull of a lever
Unobtrusive Speakers
0.5 watt speakers are hidden within the monitor cabinet, so you can enjoy sound while bezel size is kept to a minimum. If you require greater volume, the separate i-Sound L3 sound unit with dual 0.9 watt speakers can be attached to the bottom of the monitor
Placement Flexibility
The FlexScan S2233W comes with a "FlexStand" that offers tilt, swivel, 90° rotation for portrait mode viewing, and 6.2" (15.7cm) of height adjustment. Its innovative, bearing-less design reduces mechanical wear and the amount of torque required to adjust height
Improved Work Efficiency, Reduced Visual Fatigue
EIZO conducted a survey in 2008 to establish the relationship between eye fatigue and monitor use. The results showed that features like Auto EcoView, ergonomic stands, and the EyeCare utility helped reduce eye fatigue and improved work efficiency by 12.5%
EyeCare Utility
EIZO's EyeCare utility prompts workers to take scheduled breaks, thereby promoting healthier work habits and preventing eye fatigue caused by prolonged monitor use
DVI Input Level Adjustment
The monitor compensates for image quality degradation that may occur when connecting to a signal switch box or to a PC via a long cable
Individual Adjustment of Gamma
For better image consistency in multi-monitor environments, EIZO adjusts the gamma at the factory
Simple Color Matching with EIZO EasyPIX
The optional EIZO EasyPIX color matching tool is ideal for digital SLR camera users looking to match colors between their monitors and photo prints. With the EasyPIX software you can match the monitor's color and brightness with that of the photo paper and then create a monitor profile with the bundled EX1 color sensor. No expertise in color management is required and the profile can be shared with image retouching software to ensure accurate results when printing
Commitment to Quality
While outsourcing production is now common practice in the monitor industry, EIZO continues to manufacture its products the same way it has throughout its 40 year history -- with its own staff at its own factories. This allows EIZO to keep close control over production quality and offer the industry's only 5-year manufacturer's limited warranty
Customer Assurance
A five-year warranty offers a long service life, and compliance with leading industry standards such as TCO Display 5.0 and TUV Ergonomics ensures a better working environment
