An excellent monitor albeit with some flaws
It's an excellent monitor. Having used SMALLHD and Feelworld monitors before, I can say that this does not disappoint at all. Excellent image, Industry standard SDI +HDMI inputs (if you go for the SDI variant) and good LUT support with that 1000 nit brightness is an excellent package. The HLG , PQ options also let you see your image in HDR glory in the screen and that REALLY helps you nail down your highlights and shadow details when shooting. A blown out image in SDR LUT suddenly comes to life in HDR with a lot more details visible. The LUTs are accurate and scale nicely. Innumerable focus peaking options, waveform, false colour are all just wonderful aids to use while shooting.The cons though - I don't know if its just my piece, but god oh god does it get hot! Especially if you're outdoors / 100% brightness or in HDR mode. It just gets incredibly hot to the touch. I've sent my unit back to CDM in Delhi for a second opinion and they came back saying it wasn't an issue and it's fine. But I really doubt the longevity of the display if it constantly runs so hot to the touch. I also often see battery not lasting as long as ATOMOS says it should. Might be a side effect of this extreme heat.The display comes pre calibrated but for further calibration down the line you need their own Atomos proprietary serial cable which costs another 9000 rupees and an X-Rite I1 Display pro which is another 20000.The build quality isn't that great either. It's good and light which is great for pairing with mirrorless / DSLRs but doesn't feel strong and sturdy. I've invested in a SMALLRIG AtomX cage to shroud the monitor and give it more mounting points and that gives it the required heft.The menu system is meh. SmallHD does have a better UI than this for sure. Could definitely work on improving that.

Great if you know your usage!
It’s an amazing monitor if your role is behind the camera as with most of the cameras it disables the autofocus function and on camera screen. I bought it for shooting self and use it as a reference monitor during wide shots. But because of the above mentioned problem, it’s of not much use. Though I still use it for my B rolls.
