I'm looking into purchasing a monitor for use with my UMP, mostly while its on my Ronin because I don't have eyes on what I'm shooting without one. My question is: If I am recording 2k or 4k and sending the signal through the SDI into an SDI in on the monitor, does the camera and/or the monitor downscale the image if the monitor isn't able to display 2k or 4k footage? I really only need to be able to see what I'm looking at, I don't mind if the resolution isn't the same.
If the camera does downscale the image then I have a small monitor I can use but it only has HDMI input, has anyone had any luck with the SDI to HDMI converters?
Essentially I'm looking for the easiest way to get myself up and running because I've got a shoot coming up in two weeks and am currently monitor-less.
