Does anyone know if the monitor in the deals section today is the updated version or the old version? (Sorry I been trying to follow this thread but might have missed it)

@Vitaliy_Kiselev, so are we gonna eventually have the updated version on the deals section? Plus any idea if they gonna have it at same or different price?

Looking forward to the updated version. Thanks Vitality.

@Meierhans - If you had problems with it why did you not return it straight away? I'd be surprised if they'll offer any discount etc for people who bought the previous version.

Because there was rumour about firmware update that would fix the issue

It was not a rumor, but some messages of some seller on ebay.

@Vitaliy_Kiselev & @ arknox : thank's for this good news! Any informations about a possible delivery date? I have to buy a monitor and It seems that this model will be a very good option.

@animanus - The old monitor did have problems with colour as well, but this was not its main problem. There's too many variables to know if it's any better or worse. Look at the wall in both pics, clearly the camera taking these pictures was not using the same white balance for both shots. In the first shot the canon screen is coming out white, but the wall is green. 2nd shot the monitor is coming out green and the wall is white...

I'll let you know when it gets here. It may be that if it's too far towards green by default it can be pulled out with some colour tweaking on the monitor if there is some sort of tint, but it's no deal breaker to me, the colour can be viewed on the camera screen and corrected in camera or graded out later, especially when using the BMCC in RAW.

Was it not possible to tweak it to something reasonable with the colour settings on the monitor? I'm not disagreeing with animanus, just saying it's not possible to see definitively better or worse from a couple of images.

@animanus - Looking at it again, yes, it would wouldn't it. Maybe they think we like to monitor everything in pure green... I don't know.

Hopefully this is not how bad it will be and whatever tint is there is correctable on the monitor. I think it would be reasonable to expect it to be at least the same as the previous monitor, not any worse. Have to be optimistic... They've had my money for 3 months now :-)

I think as long as they've not backtracked on a few things, e.g. fixed one problem and created another, and fixed the overscan and stretch issues, (looks like they have), it'll be great value for money.

@arknox

Guys, are you ok? Judging something from off balance bad photos is complete nonsence.

I removed all but one photos, and will add good ones later.

Any more details on the update? A metal case is very appealing.
