mercer Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Has anybody used this monitor? If so, does the screen flip when turned upside down. So far, it seems to be the smallest model I can find but it doesn't have enough mounting options. Also, how is the image quality, build quality, peaking, zebras, etc...?

M Carter Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 If you don't get any answers - see if you can track down the user manual. Image flip is pretty common. (I know, you'll need an owner or a good review for the other info.) mercer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Nuss Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I have no experience with that model but i do recommend the ikan dh5 monitor which is only $100 more. You can flip the image and the display is 1080p. Also it is very light weight and takes canon or sony batteries. For pulling focus the added resolution to me is worth it! mercer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M Carter Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 If you need color accuracy, look for a monitor you can calibrate. Even a screen with blue-only will be a big step up in color if the adjustments let you get it close. If you're shooting DSLRs, you'll need a way to get clean bars into the thing via HDMI (by "clean" I mean they bypass computer color settings and send the edit window of your NLE out via HDMI) - but there are pretty affordable solutions like the Intensity card, so you can render up some bars in your NLE and adjust the screen. This is handy for editing as well - bolt a magic arm to your desk and use your on-camera screen to check color when editing. mercer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does have some kind of blue calibration. Thanks for the help!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
