FieldMonitor vs FrameUp

FieldMonitor gives you wireless monitoring & control for Canons, Panasonics, Sonys, and Teradeks. IMPORTANT: DO NOT buy FieldMonitor without reading this ENTIRE description! Test your camera with its native Wi-Fi app to make sure your workflow and recording formats are supported BEFORE buying FieldMonitor. Make sure you have the controls you need with the native app, and that image quality and lag are acceptable. Contact me if you have any questions. • FieldMonitor has the same latency, resolution, and reliability as your camera’s native app. • If a camera control or feature does not work with the native app, it won’t work with FieldMonitor. • FieldMonitor has NO playback, review or download capability. • In areas with busy Wi-Fi networks and/or sources of radio interference, performance cannot be guaranteed, whether using FieldMonitor or your camera’s native app. WHAT IT DOES: FieldMonitor™ lets you monitor picture, exposure, and color on supported Canon™, Panasonic™, and Sony™ cameras, and Teradek™ H.264/HEVC transmitters. FieldMonitor runs on iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Apple Silicon (M1) Mac. Use markers to show safe areas, aspect ratios, and framing grids. Desqueeze anamorphic images, cropped to your final aspect ratio. Flip the image on either axis. Focus Assist helps you nail focus. Use a waveform monitor, vectorscope, histogram, false color, and 3D LUTs. With iPhone 5S or later, iPod touch 6G or later, iPad Air or later, iPad mini 2 or later, and iPad Pro, you can see a false-color picture with adjustable levels. With a supported camera and lens you can start/stop recording, control exposure and color settings, and zoom or focus remotely. Controls are designed for fast, realtime adjustments. See the FieldMonitor website for details.

FrameUp is the essential director’s viewfinder for professional filmmakers. It combines an uncompromised viewfinder with highly customizable and intuitive controls to help you visualize and create your best shots. Using your phone, you can simulate any combination of lenses and sensors, while aspect ratio overlays allow you to monitor exactly what will appear in the final image. When you find the frame you like, just double-tap to save an image with metadata burned in to share with collaborators. Features: Full-Screen Viewfinder by Default – FrameUp focuses on the viewfinder. As soon as you launch the app, you are greeted with a large viewfinder without distractions. This lets you immediately start lining up your shots. Stills Capture – Double tap on the viewfinder or use iPhone 16’s Camera Control to capture a still of your frame. These stills include information about the lens, sensor, and aspect ratio used; ideal for sharing location scout previsualizations with your team. Stills Library – FrameUp Pro's built-in stills library allows you to quickly reference your frames on set. Location information, heading, and configuration information are saved for easy access. (FrameUp's base version saves stills to your phone camera roll.) Large Library of Included Cameras – FrameUp is updated regularly with camera support. It’s easy to file a request for your specific camera. Sensor Formats – Specify which mode your sensor is in. For example, Super 35, Anamorphic, DCI 4k, etc...

Fully Featured Base Version – The base version of FrameUp has all the features needed to craft shots; a great option for students and budget filmmakers. The optional pro upgrade brings more customizable features, professional workflows, and removes the minimal FrameUp branding on the viewfinder.

Intuitive Quick Settings – One tap brings up a customizable quick settings screen, which allows you to configure FrameUp without leaving the viewfinder. Optical Adapters – Accurately simulate teleconverters and speed boosters within FrameUp.

Broad Lens Set and Camera Support – Choose from a large library of sensors and lens sets to quickly configure FrameUp to match your setup.
