Product Overview
SmartView 4K G3
SmartView 4K G3 features built in optical and copper SMPTE‑2110 IP video connections so you can connect directly to IP based broadcast systems. You also get two 12G-SDI inputs for connecting to a wide range of professional video equipment. Plus both the 12G-SDI and 2110 video inputs can output to a 12G-SDI loop output connection. The design still features a lightweight machined aluminum chassis and a full resolution Ultra HD LCD. The on screen overlays include focus peaking, framing guides, safe area and more. You also get built in 3D LUTs for adding creative looks, converting log film gamma or handling custom HDR profiles.
The Perfect Video Monitoring Solution!
- Broadcast: SmartView 4K is ideal for broadcast as it supports both 12G-SDI and 2110 IP up to 2160p60. Switch between SDI and IP at the push of a button! SmartView 4K follows the video input so will switch between all SD, HD or Ultra HD standards automatically!
- Live Production: Powerful camera features include focus peaking, zoom, aspect ratio markers and tally. Plus the 4K display lets you see incredibly fine camera image detail.
- Fly Away Kits: Fly away kits need to be portable and tough! SmartView 4K is lightweight aluminum so it's light, plus it's only a few inches deep, so allows great rack ventilation via natural convection.
Bright High Resolution Display
The LCD used on SmartView 4K features an extremely high resolution so it will display every pixel in an Ultra HD image. That means you get an incredibly clean image with deep color fidelity. To avoid messy fingerprints on the LCD screen, SmartView 4K has a row of buttons along the bottom of the screen so you can adjust all the monitor controls without touching the screen. Unlike TVs, the video is not over scanned so you get all image pixels right to the edge of the LCD.
Includes Frame Guides and Focus Peaking!
When you're working with cameras, SmartView 4K has everything you need to assist in framing and focus with its on screen graphic overlays. Overlays include safe area and safe title markers. Plus there are 4 separate frame guides, 2 vertical and 2 horizontal, which can be displayed simultaneously. The markers are all individually adjustable so you can create any aspect ratio you like! You also get on screen focus peaking, which can be turned on and off with a dedicated front panel button.
Get Color Accurate Monitoring with 3D LUTs
Broadcasters and feature film productions often work with SDI sources that are encoded with log film gamma or an HDR profile. This means the images can look washed out or have incorrect colors. SmartView 4K solves this problem because it includes support for 3D LUTs! This means you can use a 3D LUT to re-map the SDI or 2110 input colorspace to the SmartView 4K screen. Plus you could also use 3D LUTs for exciting creative looks! 3D LUTs are easy to use and are uploaded using the SmartView utility. You can also export DaVinci Resolve color grades as custom 3D LUTs.
Connect Directly to SMPTE 2110 IP Networks!
Now you can build modern IP video systems because SmartView 4K fully conforms to the SMPTE‑2110 standard for IP video with both optical fiber and copper 10G Ethernet connections. SMPTE‑2110 specifies the transport, synchronization and description of video, audio and ancillary data over IP networks for broadcast. This includes support for SMPTE‑2110-20 uncompressed video, the Blackmagic IP codec for high frame rate Ultra HD as well as SMPTE‑2110-21 traffic shaping/timing, SMPTE‑2110-30 audio and SMPTE‑2110-40 support for ancillary data. Plus the selected video input can be sent out via the 10G Ethernet SMPTE‑2110 IP connection with full support for multicast out to multiple destinations.
Includes NMOS Protocol for Virtual Routing
SmartView 4K supports the NMOS interface specifications so all your 2110 IP video devices can operate together as a large virtual router. Plus Videohub Smart Control can route sources to destinations on 2110 IP networks because it can act as an NMOS controller. The NMOS interface specification describes how SMPTE 2110 devices are discovered and controlled on IP networks. SmartView 4K supports IS-04 for discovery and registration of IP video devices and IS-05 for connection management between IP video devices.
