The JL-Cooper too…
There is no way to program another surface, that is done by BMD and there is no API available to someone who would want to interface a different panel.

I don’t know about a cheap way to “read” the display and make a 3D LUT for it. You might want to try to find someone with a X-Rite Hubble and either Light-Space or Cinespace to run a calibration for you and make the 3D LUT to be used as a display LUT.
I am using the Display LUT I made as a output LUT in Resolve (with apply LUT to scopes turned off) which works well.
I have a PF42-11UK with SDI.

I really like having one monitor for me & clients which I suppose is why I like my Plasma as it does not have off axis viewing issues like a LCD. D24’s and D32’s (especially) are just going away and Sony is not making more tubes. I am pretty psyched about the 300 series Panasonic Plasmas as step up from the 11Uk I have.
I also feel that grading a picture for projection on a direct view panel is not the right way to do things (I have done it) and having a calibrated DLP projector and a Panel is the way to go.

Great first review, it is interesting to get used to one monitor and then replace it with something new, that is always a shock!
It seems like there are more and more good monitoring solutions available these days. And all the panels of every kind seem to be getting more refined.

I think that maybe before you come on the inter-web and post about how overrated and too complicated Resolve is you should possibly consider your audience.
There are quite a few people who are heavy Resolve users that are involved with top work in Film and TV. There is allot of depth in the app which takes time to learn especially if you are coming from a simple plugin.
I am personally not an “A-List” Colorist but the last feature I graded played to a full house at the Arc-Light theater in LA two weeks ago. I got paid pretty good for that work as it was a picture with a budget shot on 35mm.
Calling Resolve overrated does not make Resolve look bad, it makes you look uninformed.

I like my calibrated Panny 11-UK and will get a 300 series when I can. I generally do not like LCD’s and feel like I would rather deal with the Plasma issues than use a LCD.

Not on my system, I see no performance hit from using the internal Resolve scopes. I don’t know if they are GPU based but if they are the 3 GTX-285’s in my machine make quick work of the scopes.

Oh like if you want to use it for Red-CineX or something… I think there is a driver that Resolve runs that needs to be stopped, I thought there was something posted here earlier about how to do that. Maybe try sending the BMD guys an email.

I still have the Ultrascope and have put it on a telecine suite. I think is is a good basic 4:2:2 scope but it is not everything I would want in a scope for DI work.
Maybe BMD will eventually get around to doing a software update, hopefully after looking at some other hi end scope solutions.
The hardware supports 3G in which makes me wonder if it could eventually become a 4:4:4 capable scope.
