Although the CG277 is not a 4K monitor, it does accept resolutions of 4096x21x2160 at up to 30 frames/second via the DisplayPort input, automatically downscaling them to its native resolution of 2560x1440, allowing you to edit 4K video. The CG277's 27-inch display boasts a resolution of 2560x1440 pixels, making it very well suited to running multiple programs and windows side-by-side. The CG277 is supplied with an AC power cord, signal cables (DVI-D - DVI-D, Mini DisplayPort - DisplayPort), USB cable, setup guide, EIZO LCD Utility Disk (ColorNavigator software, PDF user's manual), adjustment certificate, ScreenCleaner, monitor hood, quick reference, and warranty card (5 years). The stand is height adjustable and it can be placed in either a landscape or portrait orientation. Usefully it already comes pre-assembled in the box, unlike most monitors that you have to put together, only requiring you to fit the supplied monitor hood. In terms of its looks, the EIZO ColorEdge CG277 definitely falls into the practical rather than stylish camp, with a bulky and heavy design that places the emphasis firmly on getting the job done. In the USA, the EIZO ColorEdge CG277 monitor costs $2499.99, and in the UK it retails for £1608.00 inc VAT. It's equipped with a resolution of 2560x1440 pixels, a wide-gamut IPS panel that reproduces 99% of the Adobe RGB colour space, an LED backlight, a 10-bit display with 16-bit look-up table, DisplayPort, HDMI, and DVI-D input terminals, stable brightness chromaticity and tone characteristics within seven minutes after power on, monitor hood that works in both landscape and portrait mode, and an ergonomic stand.
Alternatively, the CG277 also has an internal correction sensor that maintains the calibration results after the monitor has been calibrated with an external sensor. The 27-inch wide CG277 monitor features a sensor that is housed inside the monitor and swings up onto the screen for self-calibration. The ColorEdge CG277 is EIZO's flagship monitor targeted at professionals in digital photography, prepress, video editing and post production.
