SWIT has released the FM-U245HDR, a 23.8 inch 4K HDR monitor for field production and live broadcast use. It delivers 1000 nit brightness, multiformat 4K and 8K inputs, and a wide range of on-board monitoring tools built for real-world production conditions. SWIT has provided monitoring, power, and wireless solutions to film and broadcast professionals since 1996. We previously featured the SWIT K15 and K21 field monitors models release, and our first look at those same units. They’re generally known as a budget-brand, but one that offers a fair amount of value.
