Looking for an Outdoor Monitor


Recommended Posts

I'm looking to upgrade my monitor....it is currently only 280 NITS. So when I took it outside, I damn near had a heart attack. I'm not looking to spend over $2000. If you have anything that you are interested in selling or any ideas of monitors that would work outside (doesn't have to be the best of the best) let me know. Thanks for your time!!

HI Leslie

 

I just went through this my self. I ended up getting the Tiffen 7” 700nit NTSC/PAL 16x9 monitor, it is under $2,000.00. I have used it a couple of times since I got it and it has not let me down. I had my Aaton S16MM with an old B&W tap outside the other week and I could see the picture just fine.

 

There are a lot of options out there but I think this is the best for the money that I could find.

Where did you find that particular monitor? I couldn't seem to find it priced separately on the Tiffen website. Thanks.

Call Tiffen and talk to Kyle he'll hook you up with that monitor, otherwise if your planning on being outside alot with your rig Boland is claiming to be making a 6.5" HD/SDI/Analog Daybright Monitor 1000 or more Nits but to Date it has not been released. I am currently using the Transvideo Ultrabright 1000 nits and I spent 3 Months shooting outdoors in Hawaii and never used a sun shield it worked awesome.

 

I have some other options for you as well, just email me directly

at Robvski@aol.com

 

Peace Out

Dear Leslie,

 

I have a Marell HB-5 high briteness greenscreen that I am considering selling. I haven't posted it yet for sale, because I am in the middle of a job. The Marell has been my backup monitor, and not used much at all. It is fully daylight viewable, with built in framelines, image invert, etc...

 

Here' a link to their site:

If you are interested in a like new Marell, contact me directly.

 

Best regards,
