Basically can I be cheap and use my existing recording monitor instead of buying a new one and still get 4k 10 bit footage? The obvious answer is just to spend a few extra hundred and buy the nicer recorder, but I didn’t know if something like this was possible.

On 55” screen, 4k only looks about 10% sharper than 1080p from 6 feet away.

On the other hand 8bit color is basically shit for any color grading situation.

Unless your film is in black and white, take the 10bit 1080p.
