ADVANCED LCD MONITORS

LG Electronics' flagship LCD monitors, the W52 series, combine cutting-edge performance with stylish designs that integrate into any home office or high-end professional setting. The series' 19-, 20-, 22-, and 24-inch monitors feature a high-gloss, piano black cabinet with a curved bezel accent. Digital Fine Contrast Technology boosts the contrast ratio to 10,000:1, one of the highest available today.

The 19-, 20- and 22-inch models' ultra-fast 2ms response time delivers sharp, crisp images with reduced motion artifacts. LG's "ez Zooming" technology helps users quickly change the image size and resolution with the click of a button, an ideal tool for smaller fonts or images that need to be magnified.

All LG monitors use the proprietary f-ENGINE picture-enhancing chip for desktop monitors. LG's f-ENGINE enhances brightness and color independently of each other, which makes these units perfect for gaming, and graphic or video intensive projects. Additional monitors include:
