A studio monitor is essentially a video monitor that carries video signals and serves as an accurate television without the tuner. It has a blue gun switch that allows it to be calibrated perfectly. It is used for the unbiased editing of professional video projects because it shows the true picture of a footage. Studio monitors give the editor the ability to make judgment on brightness, color correction, contrast, and saturation that can hold true in a wide selection of television screens. They are also used while shooting videos, allowing the director to monitor the actual footage while shooting.
