The 5″ Monitor: SmallHD 503 UltraBright Kit is a camera accessory available to rent from Lightbulb Rentals. We supply film, video, and photography productions across New York City, Philadelphia, and Pittsburgh with tested, production-ready gear.
High-Brightness Display: The monitor boasts an ultra-bright 5-inch LCD with a luminance of 2200 cd/m2. This high brightness makes it highly suitable for outdoor shooting environments where sunlight can wash out typical LCD displays.
It ensures clear visibility for focus pulling, image analysis, and monitoring HDR content with extended dynamic range. Sharp Full HD Panel: Featuring a 1920 x 1080 resolution LCD panel, the 503 UltraBright provides a sharp and detailed image quality essential for critical focus and exposure monitoring on set and in the field.
HDR Preview Capability: The monitor supports HDR preview, extending its dynamic range to accurately portray a wider range of brightness levels in the image. This feature is particularly useful for filmmakers and cinematographers working with HDR content.
Durable and Lightweight Design: Constructed with a unibody aluminum exterior, the monitor combines durability with a lightweight design suitable for use with mirrorless cameras, smaller cinema cameras, and larger setups alike. The aluminum also acts as a heatsink to efficiently dissipate heat from internal electronics.
Optically Bonded Gorilla Glass: The LCD panel is protected by optically bonded Gorilla Glass, known for its transparency and toughness. This bonding process enhances visibility by reducing reflections and preventing blacks from being washed out, even in bright lighting conditions.
Dual SDI and HDMI Inputs/Outputs: Equipped with dual SDI ports and HDMI inputs/outputs, the monitor offers flexibility in signal management. Users can view two different SDI signals in A/B mode or use the secondary port as an output to send SDI signals downstream to other monitors, switchers, or wireless accessories.
PageBuilder OS: All functionalities of the monitor are accessible through the intuitive PageBuilder OS. This operating system provides advanced features and customization options via a user-friendly graphical interface, enhancing efficiency and ease of use on set.
