SmallHD has announced a free major update to its PageOS software, designed to reduce setup time and improve consistency on set. Key features include fleet control, portrait mode, expanded camera control, and downstream LUT support on 4K production monitors. <\/p>\n
The Fleet Control app lets crews manage all monitors at once, updating firmware, pushing tools, and maintaining consistent colour. Portrait mode improves menus for vertical shooting, while new camera controls let Canon settings be adjusted directly from the monitor (Canon C70, C80, C300mkIII, C400, and C500mkII). Dials on Quantum and Ultra 10 series monitors can also be assigned to settings such as ISO, shutter, white balance or ND changes. Users can also share graded looks from the production monitor to every village monitor.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis PageOS update is about removing friction, from managing an entire fleet of monitors to supporting vertical content and camera control in one place. Crews can now spend less time configuring gear and more time focusing on the shot,\u201d said SmallHD product manager Matt Eidenbock. <\/p>\n
\u201cAt the end of the day, monitoring is about trust. This update is about giving crews the confidence that their monitors are set up correctly, staying consistent across the set, and ready to adapt no matter how the production evolves.\u201d<\/p>\n
