After doing some research, I seem to have decided on the SmallHD DP6 as a monitor for my Panasonic HMC-150.
Two questions though I have before actually putting down the money:
1 - It has no waveform, and I spoke to the guys at the company who thought it was a hardware issue that no future software release can address. It has false color which I've never used before. The HMC-150 has a waveform, but it would be nice to do everything I can/need with the monitor.
I know the TVLogic VFM-056W has a waveform. And is more pricey. I am still a relative newbie. To someone who has more experience, let me know: do i want a waveform on my camera-top monitor?
2 - I also discovered that a smaller version of the DP6 exists. The DP4. Would I find a screen that size too small? Unlike the wavefor, I'm inclined to pay more here. I just feel I'll like a larger screen more. Thoughts?
