Two years ago, I reviewed Atomos’ Sumo monitor/recorder, a wonderful piece of kit that gave me hope for the future of HDR. Still, 6K is impressive and will be amazing for photographers. Unfortunately, reference monitors aren’t all the same, and newer standards like HDR10 and Dolby Vision can only be achieved with a certain class of display. That wouldn’t be a problem if these things were cheap, but an industry standard Flanders Scientific monitor will seriously set you back, and you'll want it to last years. A Flanders that’s comparable to Apple’s Pro Display XDR would cost $35,000 and would be 4K instead of 6K.Ī side note here that I prefer a true 16x9 4K reference monitor so there’s no upscaling from a 4K signal. Netflix is behind it, HBO dropped the ball on it with Game of Thrones, and content producers need to get on board. When Apple debuted the iPhone X, nearly all of the lauded features pertained to watching HDR content. I’ve said for a few years now that HDR is the future. These are comparable Flanders Scientific reference monitors. If Apple's monitor is as good as they say it is, then it competes with the best.
