SmallHD introduces its new monitor as the production workhorse, big enough for Video Village, bright enough for daylight viewing, and lightweight and durable enough for challenging locations. Dave Bredbury, Product Manager for CS Cine says that the “SmallHD’s Cine 18 fills that critical size gap between the Cine 13 and Cine 24 in the SmallHD 4K monitor line-up, providing a highly portable, daylight-viewable, 4K monitoring solution in an adaptable form factor,” adding that “It’s a next-level replacement for SmallHD’s popular 1703 P3X HD Monitor, but with significant upgrades in sharpness, resolution, and form-factor.”
Here is some more information about the monitor, as shared by SmallHD:
