SmallHD vs Tvlogic vs Marshall

Myself, I use and know the Marshall, and while the lowest resolution, I believe (if my memory serves me correctly from when I did my homework) it's the best color accuracy (please correct me if there's evidence or consensus otherwise).

The Marshall's not the most feature-rich (no scopes or 1:1 pixel to pixel), but false color is a nice facial exposure tool used in combination with the camera's WFM.

I find the 7" size to be just right, also. YMMV...

Yes, I think the LG 5.6" panel cannot produce reference quality colorimetry due to the 6-bit limitation and tiny pixel sites, TV Logic or Small HD, this is the limiting factor for color. The 7" TV Logic monitors have great color, especially the new 7" LVM-074, plus great resolution and it's very lightweight with direct access buttons for most functions, non-shiny screen, HD-SDI to HDMI conversion including 1080, all the great TV Logic scopes.

I agree. I found that the TV Logic 5.6 cannot really be used for color reference. I even sent it back to have it checked. It's fine. It just doesn't render color faithfully enough for reference. It is limited that way but the zoom, FA and waveform and all the other features make it a necessity with the AF-100 for me.
 
would you be able to use the small hd dp6, and the af100 lcd at the same time, putting the wfm or scope on the af100 monitor?

Also, I have used the TVlogic vfm-56 wp with the AA battery bracket, and it's a joke. Lasts about 5-7 minutes with pro cells. I would hope the other camera battery brackets are more respectable.

I want the TVlogic monitor, but am considering the dp6 because of all of the accessories it comes with for the price.

Yes, that's pretty much how I use mine - the monitor and hood are just like a big ol' EVF, and flip out the LCD when necessary to check the WFM
 
You can buy Panasonic type Li-Ion batts. for very little money and one will run the TV Logic VFM-056WP for half a day.

Here are some settings to try to make the TV Logic colorimetry more neutral:

Gain
Red -minus 19
Green -minus 26
Blue +4


Bias
Red 0
Green minus 4
Blue 10

YMMV.

Exactly. With two cheap bricks you can run the monitor a whole day. And there is no comparison between them in color.....
