Re: [Avid-L2] Client Monitors?

 

Works well in a grading scenario not so well in an edit suite with the extra frame delays the LUT boxes kick in.

Im actually heading the other way and losing broadcast monitors in favour of additional display port display such as the 31.5 eizo.

If you're really serious about calibrating the Bravia to a reference, you'd have to use something like that old Davio box or the Fuji IS-mini. This is the box that I actually had a hand in consulting for.


The basic use of it is to deliver a camera LUT to a monitor, but in order for that LUT to really MEAN anything, the monitor has to be calibrated and even MATCHED to another monitor, like a reference monitor at a post house. The original idea behind the Davio box was that you could take an off-the-shelf monitor/TV and match it (as close as the quality of the TV would allow) to another monitor (usually a reference monitor) in a completely different location, so that clients would basically be seeing the same thing that the reference monitor was seeing. You justify the cost of the IS mini by the reduction in cost of the client monitor compared to a true "matched" reference monitor.

Were you able to calibrate that to match your reference monitor?

As the plasmas die off, what are folks using successfully for large client reference monitors these days?
