Gareth Unwin Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Hi I am due to start a picture in Hamburg in about 4 weeks time (as 1st AD) and I am looking to source a wireless screen to be able watch/block/cue background action without needing to trapse back to "video village" or breathing down the 1 AC's neck using the on board focus monitor. I'm keen to find a system that is low impact in terms of the work it requires to hook up (as not to get up the ACs noses) but has a robust enough signal to be able to work a healthy distance from the transmitter. I have heard of a system in use on ER that sends a signal to a number of wrist worn devices (but I don't know whether this is an AD shaggy dog story !) Any pointers greatfully received.

Mitch Gross Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 A company in Canada called Lentiquip (not sure if I spelled that right) makes a small video transmitter. Mount this to the back of the camera and feed it a standard def. composite video signal. It will broadcast to a channel on the UHF band. Then buy a small LCD TV with built in tuner such as the Camos 7" offered at nebtek.com and you have a simple wireless system. Since you will be in Hamburg you must make sure that the system you use will work in PAL as opposed to NTSC. Some do both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
