Hello video heads.What monitors do you use for multiview in multi camera gigs? I work as a video technician in company and often operate PTZ cameras and our current monitors, Samsung Odyssey, are ok but it’s hard to match camera settings when the position of the camera on the multiview affects how colours look like where I sit. I’m open to suggestion on better monitors that would work in video workstations. Size preference 32”. EDIT: Thanks for the replies! I’ve been on the Audio side of AV for too long and forgot the scopes. I’ll add add scopes to the system and maybe loop through to some of your suggested monitor
