Decklink Mini Monitor 4K HDMI 10-bit and Eizo
Posted: Fri Aug 10, 2018 7:55 am
Apologies if I'm flogging a dead horse here, but I've read a lot of conflicting stuff on this issue. On the BM site it clearly states:
HDMI Video Sampling
4:4:4, 4:2:2 & 4:2:0
HDMI Configuration
HDMI 2.0a supports Deep Color and HDR. Automatically configures to connected display.
HDMI Resolution
Pixel for pixel HD resolution output to connected device.
HDMI Color Precision
Up to 12-bit (Deep Color)
Multiple Rate Support
HDMI and SDI video connections are switchable between SD/HD/2K and 4K.

I've seen many people reporting an inability to get 10-bit over HDMI to Eizo monitors, which seem to be the only feasible alternative to ponying up for a Flanders. Is this still definitely the case, or was this issue only with the original, non-4K Mini Monitor? Or are there Eizos which can receive a proper 10-bit signal over HDMI from a Decklink Mini Monitor 4K?
We need to purchase a grading monitor for a small studio and 40% import duties on monitors here make Flanders a daunting proposition price-wise.
