Hello all, looking for advice about a field monitor for outdoor shooting (BMPC4K)
5" for portability and brightness for bright day hours is what I'm after, so I basically came down to choosing between the Feelworld LUT5 (3000 nits) and the more professional-entry-level Shinobi (1000 nits). I'm also getting a cage (Feelworld sure need it, being plastic) to have easy nato rail mounting system, and a sunshade (necessary, for the Feelword to dial down brightness to avoid fan noise when needed, for the Shinobi for too-bright sunny situations).
Getting one or the other, plus a third party cage/sunhood (8siin, Nitze, Smallrig...) comes with a 100-150€ difference which is not big.
My reasoning: either I get the Feelworld for challenging outdoor shooting, saving a little, maybe loosing a bit in signal latency (Feelworld wrote to me 4K DCI signal has a minimum of 0.1s latency, can affect panning and focus pulling operations a little, Shinobi should be better [is it?]) and get a more serious screen for studio shoots later on, either I get the Shinobi from the start and use it in both studio and outdoor.
What would you choose? Thanks!
