Flanders Launches Seven New Reference Monitors
Flanders Scientific's two new series target grading, editing, and creative workstations with monitors starting at $5,995.
Updated on Nov. 10, 2026 in Advertising
Flanders Scientific has launched seven new monitors across its VP and V series, aimed at grading, editing, and creative workstations. The company, which Atomos acquired earlier this year, says the models are priced lower than comparable monitors by dropping some advanced features.
Why it matters
The launch shows how the company is positioning its QD-OLED reference monitors following its acquisition by Atomos. Lower entry prices may widen the range of buyers able to access professional-grade display hardware.
VP series pricing starts at $7,995 (£5,954) and V series at $5,995 (£4,465), representing savings of 30% and 48% respectively versus equivalent XMP models. The extraction does not report sales volumes or independent performance benchmarks for the new monitors.
The players
Atomos
Atomos is a company that makes video recorders and monitors for production professionals, and it acquired Flanders Scientific earlier in 2026.
Flanders Scientific
Flanders Scientific is a manufacturer of professional reference monitors used in video grading, editing and broadcast production.
The details
The seven monitors come from two series: the VP series, offered in 26.5-, 31.5-, 55- and 65-inch sizes with four 12G-SDI inputs, HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4, and the V series, offered in 26.5-, 31.5- and 55-inch sizes without SDI connectivity. Both series include GaiaColor AutoCal and GaiaColor Analyzer for calibration, along with HDR and SDR LUM Coloring exposure tools.

The Tech Race
The launch extends Flanders Scientific's use of QD-OLED panels into lower-priced reference monitors, following the company's acquisition by Atomos. The new pricing tier targets professional buyers who previously paid for features now removed from the models.
Editors and colorists can now buy VP or V series monitors starting at $7,995 or $5,995, respectively. Buyers who do not need onboard waveform or SDI connectivity can choose the lower-priced V series.
The takeaway
Professional buyers should weigh which built-in features they actually use before paying for them. Models that drop onboard tools may suit workflows already relying on separate hardware or software.
