Field Monitor Suggestions for EPIC

[bethdavidow]

Does anyone have any suggestions for a small (~7") field monitor that works great to check focus & color on the EPIC, especially during playback? Thanks!

Its all about budget. I have been happy with my iKan D7 but it did take a little work to get the colour right.

SmallHD DP7 OLED is fantastic.

I second the AC 7 oled. Got one. Really happy with it.

Why not use the touch LCD to check focus on playback? And check color? Why bother on set? You're shooting RAW

I use the Touch

Tim and James, what are your calibration settings for the DP7 OLED? There's a thread on here talking about calibration issues.

There are issues, partly because it's OLED. Black level control (which will help immensely) should be coming soon. You don't buy this monitor for color accuracy, you buy it to keep your shots in focus, which is what you're paid to do. hehe It's the best focusing monitor money can buy. I love mine, despite the color accuracy problems.

the ikan VX7i is a very reasonable priced option, high res, ips. We use it with our wireless hdmi kit in a portabrace MO-LVM071W, but it can be also mounted on camera
