New Steadicam Monitor

[Jens Piotrowski SOC]

I've also heard that the 6.5" is transflective, Eric?

I will only own 4x3 monitors. It makes me feel one with all the bonehead pussy execs that obviously still watch tv on a set from the 80's because they make most shows protect 4x3.

 

on a slightly more serious note, can someone post a video of the cinetronic's bubble level moving around to see how it is dampened (if at all)? I am glad it zooms as I like a smaller image (which might be also be accomplished by how far away the yoke can put it)

[William Demeritt]

After operating off a PRO green screen monitor, I went with the 4:3 monitor for the brightness but also the comfort. I'm sure we've discussed it to death, but I just feel like having a smaller image to operate from helps me compose the total image, corners and all.

 

Likewise, I was expecting the 4:3 monitor to display the 16:9 image with space on top and bottom later to be used by the bubble level's integration. Sounds like this is the case, in which I am pleased.

Unless I'm missing it in the menu somewhere, the monitor only zooms IN, not out. If someone knows how to get a zoom out, please let me know.

since the boland monitors use the same controller board and software, this should be available.....
