Cinetronic Review

Has anyone got a Cinetronic in the UK?

 

I'd love to have a look at one - and compare it to Teletest's reputed 1500 nit Cyclops...

Would be interesting as the Teletest is less than 1/2 the price of the Cinetronic, although you do of course lose out on a few features. Would the trade off be worth it? Let's see if we can find out!

I've never had a problem on super bright days with my Transvideo CineIIIa monitor. Its Super bright days with a little cloud to reflect over the image... or KinoFlos positioned to reflect into the image. These are the killers.

 

Please test these factors at NAB and tell me what you think.

 

Thanks

In the last 2 weeks I have had 2 jobs on tracking vehicles in the pouring rain. TB6 with a rain cover and covered in water is just visible! Those rain covers despite their best efforts, end up quite shiny. Can we use a Cinetronic in the rain with no rain cover on? Is it completely waterproof?

The new one is. The present one needs the connectors on the back covered

We will be adding histogram to the new monitor, with a scale showing the values.

 

Thanks for the response Chris, it's a really nice time saving feature that I like on the Transvideo's, glad to hear it's going to be included on the new version.
