LCD Monitor
Sony introduces the LMD-150S, a new 4:3 15-inch*1 LCD panel
that enhances the exciting LUMA™ Series of two-piece LCD
monitors.
LMD-150S
The LMD-150S is used in combination with its associated signal-
processing unit*2 (the Multiformat Engine Unit), accepting a
variety of signal formats ranging from SD to HD video, analog
and digital, as well as analog computer signals. The Multiformat
Engine Unit incorporates Sony's advanced X-Algorithm*3 I/P
conversion technology - the central element that enables the
LMD-150S monitor to reproduce extremely smooth images.
The LMD-150S monitor uses a multi-layer AR coating, which
protects the face panel from scratches and minimizes reflections
from ambient light.
Combined with the Multiformat Engine Unit, the LMD-150S is
the optimum choice for applications that mainly use Standard
Definition today, but that will require HD monitoring in the future.

X-Algorithm is used for 480/60i and 575/50i signal input only.
The Monitor Stand is optional.
FEATURES
Excellent Picture Reproduction
Operational Convenience
By nature, LCD panels operate in progressive mode, so displaying
an interlace signal can be a difficult task. However, with the
Sony LMD-150S, this concern is a thing of the past. The X-
Algorithm processing used in the Multiformat Engine Unit,
intelligently converts interlaced signals to progressive signals,
using a highly sophisticated algorithm. The result is extremely
smooth diagonal picture edges, which can be technically difficult
to reproduce on conventional LCD monitors.
The LMD-150S monitor provides the convenient features for
which Sony professional monitors are renowned, including:
• Advanced marker settings
(Aspect Marker, Center Marker, and Safety Area)
• Color temperature/gamma selection
• Blue-only mode
• Three-color tally
• Protected controls
• H/V delay function
• Stereo audio monitoring
• Selectable scan size for video input and aspect ratio
• Mounting flexibility (19-inch EIA standard rack mounting*4 and
VESA 75 x 75 mm spacings)
Excellent Brightness and Contrast
(High Clarity Panel using Multi-Layer AR Coating)
Wide Viewing Angle of 170 degrees
Input Versatility
*4 Requires the optional MB-524 mounting bracket.
The Multiformat Engine Unit can accept the following SD or HD
video formats:
