From cinematographers to videographers to vloggers, every kind of video producer has their unique set of needs. However, something all three types of producers need is consistent color across the production process. Accurate and consistent color is crucial, as it helps speed up production and prevents potential retakes due to color issues. Nothing is worse than finishing a video shoot only to find out later that the footage looks inconsistent. This is where the BenQ PVS7 on-camera monitors can help ensure a unified look throughout your production. Let's explore what these monitors have to offer. | Precise color with AQCOLOR | The BenQ PVS7 on-camera monitors are powered by AQCOLOR. AQCOLOR ensures that the monitor's colors match industry standards, even in multi-monitor setups, and promises the colors you see on your monitor will be the same in post-production. Additionally, you can use 3D LUT files to apply cinematic color grading or match colors in multi-camera shoots. | Robust input and output options | With the BenQ PVS7, you will have HDMI (PVS7) or SDI (PVS7) in/out support. The benefit of using SDI is that it's a time-tested connection that offers a cable lock and is great for transmitting uncompressed video signals over long distances. On the other hand, HDMI offers wide compatibility with many devices. The PVS7 also has a 3.5 mm headphone jack, DC in, and an SD card slot for firmware updates and LUT loading. | |
