LCD -
Detail, Accuracy, Brightness.
Discerning cinematographers and videographers need high-resolution,
color-accurate, sunlight-viewable monitoring with a wide angle of view.
The PIX-E Series monitors excel in all those aspects with their IPS, 500 nit,
1920x1080 (5-inch) and 1920x1200 (7-inch) LCD displays. |

TapZoom�
Its never been faster to zoom in and check focus!
TapZoom provides instant 2x or 4x zoom to where you tap on the touchscreen. Tap
again to zoom out.
Once zoomed in, tap on the screen in the direction of a moving subject to keep
it centered - the perfect tool for quickly checking focus when an actor lands
short or overruns a mark |

Outstanding
Recording Capabilities
The 4K-compatible PIX-E Series are the first on-camera monitors to offer the
full range of Apple ProRes codecs including the highest quality Apple ProRes
4444 XQ*. This is a 12-bit codec designed to preserve the detail in wide dynamic
range imagery captured by today's high performance digital image sensors.
PIX-E can record 4K up to 24 fps, UHD up to 30 fps and 1080p or 720p up to 60
fps. |

SpeedDrive�
Recording and File Delivery
The PIX-E records to the affordable, super fast SpeedDrive, an industry standard
mSATA drive contained within a custom-designed enclosure. The SpeedDrive, which
plugs directly into the PIX-E, doubles as a USB 3.0 thumb drive for very high
speed offload to any computer without the need for a special cable or drive
docking station.
Two SpeedDrive options are available, a 240 GB SpeedDrive and an Enclosure-Only
version that allows the user to choose and easily fit any size of mSATA drive.
mSATA drives are available in sizes ranging from 128 GB to 1 TB. |

Best-of-Both-Worlds User Interface
Some functions are better controlled via touchscreen and others by real buttons.
PIX-E incorporates both types of control. The touchscreen is best used when
interacting directly with a specific area of the displayed image such as zooming
in to a point of interest with TapZoom.
Buttons allow the operator to locate a control without looking and instant
tactile response leaves no doubt a function has been activated. Button control
is well suited to commands such as 'Record' where failure to activate can be
catastrophic. |

Mechanical
Construction and Powering
With their compact, die-cast metal chassis, nutted connectors, and an LCD
protected by scratch-resistant and optically-bonded Gorilla Glass 2, the PIX-E
field recording monitors are designed to withstand the most extreme and
demanding production environments.
The PIX-E monitors are powered by external DC (10-34V) or dual L-mount Sony
batteries with powering seamlessly switching from one source to another should
one become depleted or removed. |
