SWIT has released the FM-U245HDR, a 23.8-inch 4K HDR monitor which features a 1000 nit display, full suite of 4K video interfaces, robust all-in-one flight case design, and is targeted squarely at field and live productions.

The new SWIT FM-U245HDR features a 23.8-inch 3840×2160 UHD LCD panel with 1000 nits high brightness for outdoor visibility, and supports HDR gamma including HLG1000, PQ1000, and S-Log3. SDR gamma options (1.8/2.2/2.4/2.6) are also selectable to match various production needs.

Supporting both SDI and HDMI workflows, the FM-U245HDR accepts:

- 12G-SDI: 4 in / 4 loop
- 3G-SDI Quadlink: 4K in / loop
- 12G-SDI Quadlink: 8K in / loop (SQD or 2SI)
- HDMI 2.0: 4K input 

Users can view up to four inputs in Quadview mode, or two sources side-by-side (Pic-by-Pic) or overlayed (Pic-in-Pic). Each view can be independently assigned HDR/SDR gamma and color gamut.

Pre-installed in a robust flight case, the monitor includes an acrylic screen protector, sun hood, and detachable light stand adaptor compatible with junior and baby pin stands. Two top cheese plates allow wireless receiver or accessory installation. 1000 nits is fair, but in bright sunlight that sun hood will probably come in useful.

Up to 16 channels of embedded SDI audio can be monitored, with selectable 2-channel output to speaker or headphone. Advanced tools include Lissajous phase patterns and 5.1/7.1 surround visualization. Visual monitoring aids include waveform, vectorscope, CIE scope, histogram, false color, zebra, focus assist, and eye pattern.

It supports real-time de-squeeze for 1.33x, 1.5x, 1.66x, 1.8x, 2x anamorphic lenses and cropping. It also features built-in camera log-to-REC709 LUTs and supports uploading 13 user 3DLUTs via front USB-A port.

It comes equipped with a rear V-mount battery plate, and supports AC 100-240V and 4-pin XLR 12-17V DC input for field flexibility.
