thanks to Sennheiser for sponsoring our NAB 2017 coverage learn more about the Mk II two elements gopro microphone and their other audio for video products at the link in the video description coming hot off the heels of Dells announcement of their 8k monitor at CES 2017 Dell has revealed their very first HDR monitor the U P 27:18 Q and HDR 10 standard monitor that seems to be well spec to meet the needs of many creative professionals wanting a color accurate monitor that has HDR capabilities the U P 27:18 Q sports a fairly standard layout of IO with two HDMI ports one full size DisplayPort one mini DisplayPort and two USB ports for the 4 USB 3 ports strategically placed around the monitor the U P 27:18 Q has a peak brightness of a thousand nits fitting within the requirements for HDR 10 as well as a wide range in its colour spectrum and as a 10 bit panel with 100% Adobe RGB and srgb coverage 100% rec.709 97.7% of DCI p3 and 77% of rec 2020 each monitor will come factory calibrated so there will be minimal fuss out of the box however the luck for the monitor can also be changed to better suit your personal needs through Dells software so for those of you who are working together in large teams on say a film or large print project each monitor can be guaranteed to be running the same color settings workstation to workstation ensuring consistency across multiple users adding to that you can also conveniently use something like the I 1 display Pro to fill in some of the parameters that would usually require manual calibration making the entire process a little bit easier Dell teams to be checking all the boxes necessary for those of us who want to start diving into HDR workflows though it is still very early days for HDR s adoption and even the folks at Dells booth admit that HDR is a standard regarding official GPU support is currently a tad bewildering we can only hope the HDR adoption becomes a little bit easier to understand as time goes on so thank you guys for watching let me know what you think of Dells crack at their first HDR monitor in the comments down below and thanks again for Sennheiser for sponsoring our coverage of nab 2017 check MKE two elements GoPro Mike and the rest of their audio lineup where you can learn more about that in the link in the video description
