I have the 5” version and I find the best feature is the tally light!!!! It doesn’t show up as red on my monitor but it creates a white box along the border to show that it’s recording and all touch screen/ camera control glory aside, KNOWING that I’m recording from my monitor is so clutch.

Yeah this one has the red tally box around the whole screen when recording. Super clutch

Thanks for review. And how about focusing? Is this monitor good / sharp / etc enough to manual focusing. Is focus peaking exact?

I have this monitor and one of the tings that stood out for me was the fan noise. Though not as loud as the Atomos Ninja, it is there. Another thing, and this might just be my version, but touch focus needs to be initiated on the Sony camera first before it becomes active on the monitor itself.

The setup to get the touch / Wi-Fi working is… cumbersome

Do prefer this one over the BM video assist, especially with the upcoming price drop?

Might need to add this to my kit!

i need help! my lh7p show light reading capped at 70+ ire on all luma/rgb waveform & zebra when i point the camera towards bright light. This changed when i turn off pp8 and use neutral color profile . but still it capped at 90+ ire. when shooting in pp8 i had to set my zebra high to 79 ire to make it show the peaking color for highlights. if i set it over than 79 the peak color totally dissappear. im using the monitor with sony a7iv

have u noticed any audio interference caused by connecting to the monitor through wifi ? on my sony a7iv, ive tried to use the Imagining edge app for remote shooting, in order to do so I would connect my phone or ipad to my cameras wifi. but when i do this, it introduces audio interference.

How can I set the monitor to display the lighting, aperture and ISO value?

I'm currently in the market for a new monitor and I'm between this and the M1 Mars. Although mars also has a terrible interface, it has a built in wireless transceiver that allows phones and tablets to also view the camera so clients and collaborators can also see what the camera is seeing via a downloaded app. However, being able to control my Sony camera from the monitor would also be amazing. Urgh!

Did you have any issues with NPF batteries? Just got mine today and cant even mount one 😪

got something against the ZV-E1? when you put the tilta cage/fan on it its basically a fx3 (minus the second sd slot and fullsized hdmi port)

Does this monitor work for canon r5c

If I have a Canon EOS R10 could the monitor still be used on it at all or just the wireless feature controls can't be used. Ultimately, I like the crop guide to film horizontally with vertical guides for the 9x16. If it can't work with a Canon EOS R10 what other 7-inch external monitor would you recommend with crop guides?

1000 nits just will not cut it outdoors....I'd rather have a smaller monitor that records....

After using it I would describe it as pretty much useless for users of S-log3, since rather than displaying the actual ISO, it just says "AUTO" rather than giving a numeric value: due to this when the ISO clips below 640, you are completely unaware of it, unless you're staring at the smaller monitor, which completely removes the purpose of this monitor if you're constantly having to check your camera's monitor, especially outdoors. I'm saying unless this problem is fixed in a firmware update its a 100% waste for 10-bit Slog3 users.
