SCENE 01 / FIELD MONITORS
Field Monitors
Professional monitoring solutions for your Peruvian production.
Field monitors are portable, high-resolution screens that camera operators and directors use to check focus, exposure, and framing on location. Pro units show true color, offer waveform tools, and stay bright enough to read outdoors, which makes them vital for location work.
We supply field monitors in the screen sizes, resolution, and feature sets your camera department needs. Our team sources local units that match your camera's output signals, then bundles delivery with your wider gear package to keep prep simple.

On Location
Calibrated field monitors for Peruvian sets and locations
Field monitor stock in Peru runs mainly through Audiovisual Project Perú, El Niño Rentals, and Filmtek Perú in Lima. Cinesphere Rentals, Tondero Rentals, and RentCam Perú fill the gaps when a Sacred Valley feature overlaps with a capital commercial week or a Pisco-region series block.
We stock the SmallHD 702 Touch, 703 Bolt, Cine 7, Cine 13, and 1303 HDR range, plus the SmallHD OLED 17 reference for HDR-critical shoots. Our shelves also hold the Atomos Ninja V and Shogun Connect, TVLogic VFM-058W, LVM-178W, and LUM-181G, Boland MON-17 and MON-24 reference monitors, and the Sony BVM-HX310 OLED and PVM-X300 reference path for streaming-site deliveries through the Cine Lab Lima and La Mecha post pipelines.
Harsh sun on the Sechura desert, the Andean exterior blocks at Cusco and the Sacred Valley, the Pacific coast Lima exteriors, and the Colca Canyon edge all push us toward high-bright units. We stage 3,000-nit on-camera screens, SmallHD 1303 HDR panels, and sun hoods with each order. Controlled interiors at the capital studios and the valley lodge stages favor the OLED reference path instead, with the show LUT pre-loaded against the Pomfort Live Grade output.
Each unit is bench-calibrated at Audiovisual Project Perú or El Niño Rentals, using pro Klein K10-A and Konica Minolta CA-310 probes against Rec. 709, P3-D65, or Rec. 2020 PQ targets to suit the camera setup. That setup might be an ARRI Alexa 35, Alexa Mini LF, Sony Venice 2, or Sony Burano. The show LUT goes in wherever the colorist has shipped it through, and a signed calibration report rides on the case before the truck leaves the warehouse.
Our retained broker clears the SUNAT ATA carnet paperwork through Jorge Chávez customs for the global monitor shipments that fly in from LA or Miami. Lima-based DITs and video engineers handle on-set integration with the Preston FI+Z and ARRI WCU-4 focus systems. They also run the Teradek Bolt 4K or Vaxis Storm 3000 wireless chain.
Spare V-mount and Gold-mount batteries, BNC and SDI patch panels, SMPTE-rated fibre runs for the long throws across the Lima sound stages and the Sacred Valley lodge sets, articulating monitor arms, and Decimator and AJA Mini-Converters travel with each order. Our duty office in the capital runs a 24-hour swap cycle for failed panels and dead pixels. All-night Latam Cargo runs reach Cusco and the Amazon airstrips, so a humidity-killed Madre de Dios 1303 gets replaced before the next call sheet.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What on-camera monitors do you recommend?
For most shoots, we suggest the SmallHD 702 Touch or the Atomos Ninja series, which pair sharp image quality with brightness and flexibility. Both read well in daylight and offer handy tools like waveforms and LUTs.
What size director's monitor is standard?
17-inch monitors are the norm for video village, though we also offer 24-inch and 32-inch models for bigger setups. Your pick depends on viewing distance, crew size, and how much space you have.
Can you provide wireless video?
Yes. We supply Teradek Bolt and Vaxis wireless systems for reliable, zero-latency video. These let directors and clients watch without being tied to the camera.
Do monitors come calibrated?
Yes. We calibrate every monitor before delivery with pro gear, so color stays accurate across your whole tracking chain.
What about HDR monitoring?
We supply HDR-ready monitors for shoots that need high dynamic range tracking. These include Sony OLED monitors and the SmallHD Cine series, both with the right brightness and color gamut.
Can you set up complete video villages?
Yes. We build full video villages with several director's monitors, client monitors, wireless receivers, and all the distribution and cabling you need.
