The XMP270 is a 26.5" UHD resolution HDR and SDR reference monitor built around the same industry leading QD-OLED panel technology as our HPA Award Winning 55" XMP550. With 1,000nits peak luminance, 1.5Million:1 contrast, and an exceptionally wide color gamut the XMP270 qualifies as a Dolby Vision mastering monitor and is ready to handle your most demanding HDR and SDR monitoring needs.
Traditionally, achieving display consistency between 26.5-inch mastering displays and larger format screens has been a daunting challenge due to the historical use of different display technologies at these sizes. However, the XMP270 (26.5-inch), XMP550 (55-inch), and XMP650 (65-inch) overcome this challenge with a shared use of the same cutting-edge QD-OLED panel technology being driven by the same advanced color management system. This helps to ensure exceptional interoperability within and across various monitoring environments.
From production to post-production, these matching reference displays empower DPs, DITs, editors, colorists, and clients to devote more time to creative endeavors and less time to managing display matching challenges.
All FSI monitors come pre-calibrated from the factory. The XMP270 also features highly accurate volumetric Auto Calibration, making it incredibly easy for operators to recalibrate the display over time. Simply plug a supported probe directly into the monitor and the advanced GaiaColor AutoCal routine will profile the monitor for all color space selections in one simple, unified calibration process—all without requiring a computer. AutoCal works by profiling the monitor’s native, uncalibrated state and storing this data in non-volatile memory. When a color management selection is made, the monitor calculates and instantly applies a calibrated state based on that stored profile. Since all selections are derived from a single primary profile capture, operators can switch between selections without needing to rerun AutoCal, ensuring a fast, accurate, and efficient workflow.

The XMP270 is also compatible with popular 3rd party calibration solutions including Calman and ColourSpace. Quickly and easily perform your own custom 3D+1D LUT based calibration with any program capable of saving into FSI’s calibration LUT formats.
The XMP270 utilizes advanced tetrahedral LUT interpolation delivering a higher degree of precision with better on screen performance than simple trilinear LUT interpolation.
The XMP270, XMP310, XMP550, and XMP650 are uniquely qualified for use as HDR Program Mastering Monitors, learn why in our Technical Overview PDF.
Other available OLED technologies are either too dim for HDR mastering or suffer from very significant volumetric collapse due to their non-additive RGB+W sub pixel structures making them unsuitable for HDR use cases that demand color accuracy. QD-OLED is truly RGB additive for white, thus avoiding color volume limitations.
XMP Series monitors have the widest viewing angle, with the least off-axis contrast and color shift, ever featured in FSI displays. The flexibility to view these displays accurately from a wide variety of positions allows for less crowded and more comfortable viewing for clients and operators alike.
The XMP270’s accurate per pixel level luminance control means true black levels at all times with none of the small bright object or motion artifact limitations found on FALD (Full Array Local Dimming) LCDs. The per pixel emissive design of the XMP270’s QD-OLED panel guarantees exceptional simultaneous contrast with all varieties of content.
With the XMP270 you can rest assured that compared to FALD LCDs:
While the amount of halation can vary greatly between FALD LCDs, all FALD systems will show at least some degree of raised black levels and haloing when rendering a high contrast image like this example of a white circles on a black background graphic. The XMP270’s QD-OLED panel on the other hand can render these types of very bright white highlights while maintaining the intended deep black background.
The XMP270 is very power efficient compared to most other reference grade HDR display solutions. Display technologies like LMCL (Light Modulating Cell Layer) LCDs are highly inefficient as they not only need to pass light through two separate TFT layers, but also because their backlights always remain fully engaged drawing the same high amount of power whether displaying very dark or very bright images. When compared with bottom emission OLED technologies the efficiency of the XMP270’s top emission display structure means less power is required to attain the same luminance levels.
The XMP270 is equipped with a 24V 3PIN XLR power connection and is power efficient enough to run off of battery power for hours at a time.
We offer 3 custom battery plate options for the XMP270 in B, G, and V mount variants built to work seamlessly with CORE SWX’s Helix Max NDV batteries for simple and long-lasting power delivery to the XMP270 in production environments.
Reference grade HDR displays should be able to produce high simultaneous contrast, not just a bright image. Global dimming LCDs can either produce a bright image or a dark image, but cannot produce images that simultaneously have bright highlights and dark lowlights. Global dimming LCD specifications often quote high sequential contrast ratio figures, where a display’s peak luminance and black level are measured at different times, but this can be quite misleading as simultaneous contrast is problematically low on these devices for any HDR content mastering use-cases. The XMP270 features class leading simultaneous contrast rendering both bright highlights and dark lowlights with incredible clarity and accuracy at the same time.
The XMP270 utilizes a combination of a graphite heat sink and all aluminum chassis to efficiently dissipate heat without relying on fans. Many consumer devices use a plastic chassis, which can act as an insulator trapping heat and impacting panel performance. An aluminum chassis not only provides increased strength and durability in professional installs, it also helps efficiently conduct heat away from the panel.
This fanless design provides users with both a quieter and lower maintenance HDR grading display.
12Gbps SDI connections greatly simplify room design by allowing you to feed 4K and UHD signals to the display over a single cable. Quad 1.5Gbps and 3Gbps SDI connectivity are also supported ensuring compatibility with practically any type of 4K or UHD output.
The XMP270 supports advanced signal formats up to 12bit 4:4:4 at 4K resolution setting it apart from less advanced monitoring solutions.
XMP series monitors feature 4 clean loop-throughs and 4 processed MON outputs, with each input having its own clean loop and processed MON output. The MON outputs support processed signal output capabilities, such as basic quarter-sample resolution downconversion and the ability to mirror any active Look LUT on the corresponding input. The unique ability to simultaneously supply a clean 12G/6G loop through and real-time quarter-sample downconverted 3G or 1.5G output means that any incoming single link 4K or UHD signals can be converted to 2K or HD output for downstream HD monitors or scopes, all without needing any standalone down conversion equipment.
XMP series monitors automatically read payload ID (VPID) information embedded in SDI signals and configure the monitor's SDI Format mode for proper support of 4:4:4 or 4:2:2, 10 or 12bit, and RGB or YCbCr signals. This information can also be temporarily displayed whenever a format change is detected so that you can be sure that what you intend to output to the monitor is what the monitor receives.
A VPID override toggle is also provided allowing users to manually configure the monitor in instances where the payload ID may be missing or incorrect.
Ideal for multi-camera setups, XMP series monitors let you display up to 4 signals on-screen simultaneously. With a single button press, you can toggle Quad View Mode on or off, making it easy to view 2, 3, or 4 inputs at once or to switch back to any single input full screen.
Best of all, Quad View mode no longer requires gen-lock synchronization. Simply connect sources of the same frame rate, and the monitor handles the rest.
Additionally, Quad-View Mode offers 4 channel LUT support so that each quadrant can have its own unique 3D LUT applied.
Each input can optionally be configured with completely independent color space parameters and these can all be viewed on screen at the same time. Select different gamuts, EOTFs, white points, and luminance parameters for the ultimate level of per input configuration flexibility. Prefer to keep things simple with a single global setting for all inputs? No problem, the monitor allows you to use it that way as well.
Quad view mode combined with independent color space configuration per input accommodates a very popular request, viewing HDR and SDR on screen at the same time. This can be especially useful on set where there often isn’t the space or budget for independent HDR and SDR displays at every location.
XMP monitors support direct integration with applications like Pomfort's Livegrade for real-time Look LUT control. Active Look LUTs are applied in real-time to the monitor's processed MON outputs, allowing the XMP to function as a real-time LUT box for both the on-screen image and connected downstream devices.
Note: Real-time Look LUT support with LiveGrade and XMP series monitors is currently limited to the SDI 1 input.
The IP Remote Utility can be used to remotely toggle functions, switch inputs, and navigate the menu on Flanders Scientific monitors using your Mac or PC's keyboard, mouse or control panel. Also available for iOS devices.
A Stream Deck can be easily configured for use with the IP Remote Utility to trigger shortcuts.
Quickly and easily save up to 5 custom configurations and switch between them with a single button press.
The XMP270 comes equipped with 4K/UHD/HDR compatible real-time waveform and vector scope. The waveform can be shown with your choice of percentage or PQ nits graticules for precise monitoring.
4 adjustment points from 0-100 percent allow you to establish specific target areas to be shown in false color or greyscale.
Blue Only, Blue Only Mono, Red Only, Red Only Mono, Green Only, Green Only Mono, and standard Monochrome monitoring modes are invaluable for QC and engineering tasks.
Choose from a wide assortment of standard area and safety markers, and optionally combine them with a center marker as well.

XMP series displays also support upload of custom markers allowing for unparalleled flexibility in generating frame lines, overlays, and even complex elements like vignettes. Any 1920x1080 resolution PNG is supported giving you the freedom and power to use custom colors, opacity levels, and more. Give your markers custom names and save them to the display quickly and easily from the free IP Remote Utility application.
The XMP270 is a true UHD resolution monitor (3840x2160) that supports full screen viewing of HD and Ultra HD signals and will also accept 4K signals and scale them automatically to fit on screen while preserving native signal aspect ratio.
XMP series monitors feature high-quality bicubic scaling, ensuring that even HD sources appear clear and sharp on screen. Unlike many consumer devices, this scaling is performed in near real-time, offering exceptional, low-latency processing that’s ideal for on-set or audio-critical applications.
Additionally, a 1:1 pixel mapping mode is available, providing a true reference QC viewing mode for any incoming signal.
The XMP270 has the unique ability to replicate interlaced video accurately on screen making it ideal for spotting quality control concerns like field reversals. The XMP270’s QD-OLED panel is also not susceptible to the fast onset TIR & after-image flicker that occurs on many IPS LCD panels when trying to simulate interlaced video accurately on screen.
The 26.5″ XMP270 is a popular upgrade for those replacing aging 24.5″ OLEDs, fitting seamlessly into setups where 24.5″ monitors were previously used. Despite providing 17% more screen area, the XMP270 is actually lighter, thinner, the same height, and less than 1.5 inches wider than our prior 24.5″ models like the DM250.
When mounted on a cart or used in the field, the XMP270’s practical design really stands out. Competing 26.5″ monitors can be nearly an inch taller, 1.5 inches wider, and over 2.7 lbs heavier—all without offering any additional screen space. The XMP270 delivers the perfect balance of size, performance, and portability, making it an ideal on-set companion.
