With a WVGA resolution of 800 x 400 and weight less than 5lbs, the new 3G SDI-ready monitor is well-suited for rack-mount (4RU height), desktop, OB vans and portable applications. This 9in version includes a detachable screen protection panel, screw holes for a camera pedestal on the bottom, a camera focus support function that increases the monitor’s aperture level and native scanning for both SD and HD signals. The monitor also supports a composite video input and output and feature HDMI inputs.

The LMD-940W model has 10-bit video processing and accepts multiple SD and HD video formats up to 1080/50p and 60p with 4:2:2 YCBCR 10-bit capability.
