Thanks for the NAB videos! I LOL'd when at 2:00 in... BEERS. Instead of "we've been at NAB this entire day"... I was imagining, "they just opened the gates" (we've been here 5 minutes... beers) LOL. Watch the edit with that in mind... funny.
Dude... that BM monitor/recorder is a show-stopper at $895. That makes any of the other monitors (no recording functions and what about SDI in/out/pass-through) in the $500-600 range, especially Lilliput... instantly-obsolete(?)
+Mattin STL it's still 7" though. If I'm running a gimbal like the Pilotfly H2 for example and like to attach a little 5" monitor to the side (OSMO style) for monitoring, 7" is way too big. It's nice that it does 4K, but I'd like to have seen it in a smaller package. Currently the PIX-E5(H) is the only one to do it... Also. It's like the existing Video Assist, but with 7", 4K and XLR. But the interface is still that very basic stuff with a histogram and audio meters, that's about it. I'm glad there's a 4K recorder sub $1k now, but to use it as a studio or field monitor I need it to have atleast Lilliput features like: histogram, rgb and luminance parade, waveforms, vectorscope, false color, zebras, punch-in zoom, pixel zoom, peaking and all that good stuff. Preferably as well anamorphic de-sequeeze and LUT support (Odyssey Q7+ and Shogun still the top guns in this firearm segment). As a monitor the Video Assist isn't really that interesting, they assume you're just eyeballing it or some. What I'd like to see... is ok, I'll eyeball it... with the screen on my camera, now give me a monitorless recorder, like the Atomos Ninja Star, but then one that does 4K.
There was a lady right behind the camera that walked up and stole all of the candy and handouts from a booth. Dumped it all into a crazy oversized hand bag. Through me off. ;)
