I tried using the high end monitor "UP 2715 K" which can display 4 K video with plenty as it is 5 K size

Dell goes further above the 4K picture quality5K(5120 × 2880) high-end model equipped with panel "UP 2715 KWe released it in December 2014. Since I was able to borrow this model of displaying a 4K movie easily and handling it for professional use, I tried to touch its expressive ability and touch it to see how I can use it.

So, I tried out the UP 2715K I had you sent from the box at once. The surface is made entirely of glass processing, and the surface is subjected to antiglare treatment to suppress reflection and 3H hard coating treatment. The panel has 218 ppi and 2712 inch IPS liquid crystal of 5120 x 2880 pixels.


UP 2715K is a product belonging to the company's high end, it seems that the sound quality is enhanced by installing two Hermann Cadon speakers (16 W × 2).


Power supply and control buttons were laid out compactly on the right side of the main unit.


The back side has become a curved design common to Dell's monitor.


The height of the stand can be adjusted to 115 mm, and it can also be used as a vertical orientation monitor by rotating the monitor by 90 degrees.


I / O related for power supply and signal input / output were all gathered on the back. In addition to the Mini DisplayPort input, DisplayPort input × 2, USB 3.0 port (standard B plug), USB 3.0 port (standard A plug) × 4, the connectors grouped on the right are USB ports on the back panel surface It is arranged so that it can be used for charging mobile batteries etc. In addition, the HDMI terminal was not installed.


Here a few notes on connection. For input of video signals of 4K or more, it is necessary to use DisplayPort or Mini DisplayPort, and furthermore, in order to display 5K video, use a corresponding graphic boardConnect with 2 DisplayPort cablesyou need to.


If it becomes a card with two DisplayPort, it will be required to have a certain performance, but there seems to be a fate that can not be avoided in order to use a high-end machine. As of November 27, 2014, the graphics boards which are confirmed to be operated are eight models of NVIDIA Quadro K2000, K2200, K2000D, K4000, K4200, K5000, K5200, K6000, the driver must be R344.11 or higher It has become.

In addition, as for products there are two DisplayPort cables paired, conversion cable of mini DisplayPort → DisplayPort etc are bundled, so it is worthwhile not to prepare newly.


Once the graphic board is ready, connect the cable and OK. One of the two cables is marked with a blue mark, so that you can avoid getting lost when connecting.


This time I used it in the editorial departmentELSA GeForce GTX 670 S.A.CWhen I tried it on a machine with two inserted, I was able to display it without problems.


It started up safely and the desktop screen was displayed. It is a familiar screen for Windows users, but when you look closely you will notice that the icon displayed in the upper left of the screen is very small.


Approaching closely and seeing, the icon is small this. It is the moment when the power of the 5K panel of 5120 × 2880 pixels was shown.


Here is the image that captured the actual screen. When clicking, since the full size image is displayed, I think that the scale feeling of the display area can be felt more realistically.


The notebook PC (Panasonic ·Let's Note CF-SX 2) And tried it side by side. Compared with the width of the monitor, UP 2715 K is about twice as large as Let's Note, but in calculating it is packed with more than about 3 times the pixels of Let's Note.


When I tried to see how GIGAZINE is displayed in this wide space, in general, 11 articles were lined up sideways in the top page where 2 or 3 articles are often arranged side by side. The top page is designed with the latest 30 articles aligned, but it is surprising that you can see all articles without scrolling at all.


Next, rotate the panel 90 degrees and display it in portrait view. The panel senses the rotation and the display is switched automatically.


When I also displayed the GIGAZINE top page, the display was completed in the upper half this time.


"Because there is a 5K panel, we need to see the 4K movie, which is the top level that is generally available at 100% full magnification", so that time-lapse images of natural nature such as a starry sky are converted to 440 Kbytes I put it in image qualityMovie "TimeScapes"I tried playing it. As expected it is a 5K panel, while UP 2715K displays the 4K video, but the margin expression ability that the margin is left around the video. To reproduce the 4K image, high graphic ability is required as it is, but the image obtained by that is likely to be said to be different from 2K and HD image quality.


218 ppi, the fine pitch of 0.116 mm, the 4K image is very smooth. The following pictures were taken of the images displayed on UP 2715 K with a camera, but it seems like they shot the actual scenery at first glance.


Also an image of the monitor screen shot with the camera. Although UP 2715 K is shipped with the color correction of the panel completed, this is unique if it is a high-end equipment used for creative workplaces where high color accuracy is required.


It is also possible to make full use of the vast work area and edit the video while displaying the 4K movies in full size.


Also, even when organizing collections of pictures taken, it seems to be able to work efficiently with a wide desktop.


Furthermore, I was able to work in amazingly wide space, taking advantage of the advantages of 5K panel, when recording using DAW software and editing sound material.


And of course, it seems to be able to demonstrate its power for business use. When I opened the sheet of Excel, Excel's screen that I had never seen before appeared, that the horizontal row was displayed up to the BR column and up to the vertical row up to the 139th line at once.


Furthermore, when it becomes a portrait screen, it is the intensity that it is displayed up to approximately 250 rows in the vertical direction. Although it seems to be able to hear the voice that seems to be "I can not see the character," even if it is detailed so far, it is mysterious because it does not feel inconvenient so far by actually touching it. Sometimes I felt it hard to see unless I was able to see it to a certain extent, but my eyes got used to it while I was touching for about an hour and I felt something like a feeling of blockage unless I returned to the original small monitor environment I got it.


Although it is UP 2715 K that requires a corresponding preparation and expenses as a high-end machine, it seems to say that the merit of the image quality and comfortable space obtained by that is fully felt. It is sold at Dell's online store at 185,167 yen (tax-excluded shipping included).
