Camera Gear - Field Monitors

Field Monitors

Just a small guide to help find the best field monitor for your dslr video purposes. Standard features like focus assist peaking, zebra, zoom, histogram etc has been left out since I haven't really seen any model without this. Touchscreen and LUT-support however seem to be available only in higher price range models. I've not personally reviewed these units, the information is based on online reviews that I've tried to summarize. Table is sortable by clicking the column header. Most of these monitors are available as SDI versions (usually with a trailing "S" added to the model name) so it doesn't feel necessary to add them into the list. Added "Fan" column whether the display has active fan or passive cooling. Hold SHIFT key to sort by multiple columns.
