SmallHD 13" Production Monitor with Built-In Teradek Sidekick II Receiver

Description

Whether producing content for broadcast or cinema distribution, you can depend on the SmallHD 13" Production Monitor with Built-In Teradek Sidekick II Receiver to display accurate colours in professional studio and location settings. The built-in Sidekick II receiver makes this a small package of monitor and receiver that accepts 3D LUTS for monitoring from wireless transmitters or SDI sources. Each monitor is colour-calibrated by SmallHD to ensure consistently accurate colour representation, with 93% coverage of the NTSC colour space. The Colour Intelligence engine accepts LUTs from industry-standard solutions.

True 10-bit colour depth can differentiate between 1024 levels of brightness, per channel, for smooth gradients essential for critical image analysis. The LED backlight provides 1500 cd/m² of brightness. The monitor can tough it out in the production world with its milled aluminium body, versatile power options, and a wide selection of monitoring tools. Having a colour-accurate monitor on set means that directors, clients, or DITs can have a dependable reference display for nearly any kind of production.

Key Features:

Built-In Wireless Receiver

Compatible with Teradek Bolt 500, 1000, 3000, and Focus Bolt/Cine 7 500 transmitters.

PageBuilder OS

Originally featured in the 500 and 700-series models, and extrapolated for the Production Monitor series, the PageBuilder OS is an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) that puts all the advanced functionality of 1703 at your fingertips. Rather than have confusing menus, this GUI allows you to selectively apply monitoring tools such as waveform, vectorscope, multiview, and focusing aids to different "pages". These pages can be easily flipped through using the joystick or selected with the four quick-access buttons on the front panel. Additional buttons on the front panel can toggle monitoring tools on and off for each page.

3D LUT Processing

To keep your images consistent from production through to post-production, import 3D LUTs and display the treated image side by side with the untreated image, to correctly gauge exposure while visualising what is being recorded by the camera. A side-by-side preview can also be used with the HDR preview function. Separate LUT-treated images can be sent downstream over SDI and HDMI, so you can have the 1303 display a log image or LUT-treated image, while the director or client monitors connected to the outputs can receive images treated with a different LUT. An image capture function saves a still frame from the incoming video stream onto an SD card, and records the applied 3D LUT for post-production reference.

On-Set Problem Solving

The PageBuilder OS has a dedicated Output Preview page which allows you to apply LUTs and other image adjustments specific to the output signal from the monitor.

HD Scopes

Fill the screen with up to three simultaneous scopes, including waveform, vectorscope, and histogram, while still being able to observe the camera feed. The Colour Picker function can analyse the raw colour values of any individual pixel in the frame.

Exposure Tools

Exposure assist supports both ARRI and Rainbow false colour. Utilise zebra lines to warn you when reaching a brightness level of your choosing. This is great for matching exposure across shots and cameras.

Focus Assist and Peaking Tools

Focus assist creates a bright highlight on in-focus subject matter—highly recommended when focusing on the fly. Focus Peaking increases the image sharpness, allowing for more detailed focusing. The colour and intensity of the peaking can be adjusted to your preference.
