It supports 720p resolution, which is a nice resolution to operate and pull focus with. However, it also supports the reception of a 1080p signal through both its HDMI and modular 3G-SDI inputs, so there is the inclusion of an improved pixel-to-pixel feature which blows the image up to show its native resolution. To show Full HD it will punch into the image, and smaller resolution it will center them in the middle of the screen. The default view scales everything down to 720p. However, there are also other scaling options that allow you to further adjust the image. An Input crop setting allows you to crop in to any portion of the image based on a customizable crop area that is user adjusted with the knobs no the front of the monitor. There are also aspect ratio crops for 4:30, 16:9, and full screen, as well as a custom aspect ratio crop that you can adjust using the knobs and is graphically represented by a scale.

An expanded marker function allows the user to set markers at the following aspect ratios (4:3, 13:9, 14:9, 16:9, 1.85:1, 2.35:1, 2.39:1), as well as show from 80% to 95% broadcast safe areas. Again, there is a customizable marker that can be user defined using the knob on the front of the monitor. Additionally the user can set line width, color, and transparency.

There are also multiple features to assist you on obtaining a well-exposed/sharp images. For exposure – there is the False color feature, which we have seen on prior models of Marshall monitors. It displays IRE based on a gradient scale of colors, from fuchsia (<0 IRE) to red (>101 IRE). This is great for seeing where you’re blacks and whites are clipping and there is a loss of information. Also to assist with exposure, there is a Clip function that displays over/under exposed areas with a Zebra filter.
