  • Auto aspect ratio / custom scaling for monitors

    Posted by Phil Yunker on December 30, 2010 at 8:44 pm

    I’m looking around for other monitors that offer the Auto Aspect / Custom Scaling feature like the Small HD DP6. I think I want to buy the DP6 but want to make sure that I have looked at all my options. Having the correct aspect ratio on the monitor’s screen is important for me so the client can see what the take actually looks like. I have used the Marshall V-LCD70XP-HDMI monitor, however, during recording the monitor went into 4:3 (I think, I know it wasn’t 16:9) does this Marshall have a custom scaling feature that I missed?
    Thanks.

    From what have seen, The DP6 has been the best build, resolution, and Canon Battery mounts.
    The menus are all not as easy to navigate, but i am sure thats minor. you can get used to it.
    It also can be updated by software.

    Seems like a winner to me.

    That seems to be my take on the DP6 as well, will probably end up getting it very soon.
    Thanks.
