SmallHD have just released details of their latest firmware update for their brand new monitors - the 500 series, including the HDMI based 501, and the HDMI/SDI SmallHD 502. Firmware 2.0 allows users to downstream a custom Look Up table to another monitor - such as a directors monitor or another monitoring device, in addition to HDMI/SDI cross conversion on the 502 model.
PIX-E5 includes an impressive suite of monitoring tools, such as TapZoom™, for unrivalled focusing speed, false colors and zebras to help set exposure, guide markers for framing, and a range of scopes, including waveform, histogram, and vectorscope. The new camera-mount monitor incorporates a “best-of-both-worlds” user interface that combines easy-to-access tactile buttons with an intuitive touch screen.
