SWIT K21 21.5" FHD 1500nit Field Monitor

The SWIT K21 21.5" FHD 1500nit Field Monitor is a professional-grade monitoring solution designed to meet the demands of today’s dynamic field production environments. Equipped with a large 21.5-inch Full HD IPS panel and an ultra-bright 1500nit backlight, the K21 ensures excellent visibility even in direct sunlight. This makes it a perfect choice for outdoor shoots, live productions, or on-location work where clear image monitoring is crucial. The robust all-metal housing with reinforced rubber corner guards and a quick-release screen protector ensures the monitor is ready for challenging environments without compromising image clarity or usability.

At the heart of the K21 is SWIT’s intuitive Scene OS, which allows users to build up to 8 customizable “Scenes,” each with 8 shortcut tools. These can include waveform, vector scope, peaking, false color, zebras, and more, enabling instant access to essential tools and functions during shooting. The K21 supports advanced video and audio analysis tools, anamorphic de-squeeze (up to 2x), and delog/HDR LUTs from major camera manufacturers like ARRI, RED, Sony, and Canon. You can also load up to 10 custom 3D LUTs via USB-A for personalized color workflows.

Calibration is fast and precise thanks to SWIT’s support for X-Rite’s i1Display Pro HL probe via the monitor’s USB-C port—no PC connection required. The K21 also delivers versatile power and mounting solutions: AC input, 4-pin XLR, or V-mount battery power, plus interchangeable cheese plates and a VESA-to-C-stand adaptor for flexible mounting. Whether mounted in a flight case for a director’s monitor or set up on a light stand, the K21 is a rugged, reliable, and color-accurate field monitor tailored for professional cinematographers and production crews.
