SmallHD just added a couple of more affordable monitors to their already awesome 700-series monitor lineup just two months ahead of NAB 2016. The 700-series was pretty lonely with just a singe monitor up until now – the very sharp and awesome SmallHD 702 Bright 1080p monitor with 3D LUT support powered by either Canon LP-E6 or Sony NP-F L series batteries. The two new monitors are called the SmallHD 702 Lite (HD-SDI/HDMI) and SmallHD 701 Lite (HDMI only) and feature slightly lower resolution and brightness, but otherwise retain the already familiar build quality, 7-inch form factor and image control features including 3D LUT support from the higher end SmallHD 702 Bright model.
The new monitors will come in at the very respectable $899 for the 702 Lite and $699 US for the 701 Lite and are expected to ship in the next week or so. Check out some pics and more features and specs below.
