New Aputure VS-1 FineHD High Res Monitor For Under US$2002 min read
Reading Time: 2 minutesNormally today most 7-inch budget field monitors for DSLR shooters and the like have a standard resolution of a either 800 x 480 or at best around 800×600 pixels. Usually in the 7-inch realm higher end manufacturers do tend to push the envelope to 1080p and even higher resolutions, but at a hefty price tag. Not Aputure. They have just announced two brand new monitors for DSLR and other budget shooters ““ the VS-1 FineHD and the VS-2 FineHD monitors. Both share stunning 1920 x 1200 resolutions, a notch above Full HD for pristine image quality and piece of mind when it comes to focusing especially when shooting in 4K.
Both the VS-1 and VS-2 FineHD monitors have some really cool additional features such as camera data or space for monitor menus so they no longer overlap your image. The closest monitor in terms of specs and resolution that Aputure offers at the moment is the VS-2, which sells for about $239 and is quote affordable, but has a resolution of only 1024 x 600.

With a 450 nit brightness (outdoor viewing) and 1200:1 contrast ratio, the VS-1 FineHD provides richer, brighter and more dynamic colours than any contender in its class. Utilizing LTPS (Low Temperature Poly Silicon) LCD screen technology, the VS-1 FineHD sports a thinner display, light weight and low power consumption.
In addition, it offers on-location and active outdoor filmmakers near-perfect image viewing at every angle thanks to its 160 degree viewing angle. The VS-1 FineHD accepts HDMI and composite signals. No SDI here, but at this price point it’s not reasonable to expect one.
