New Universal RED LCD options for all cameras?

[Zack Birlew]

Hi, I was just reading about another user having a scratched 7" RED PRO LCD on the Scarlet forum and it made me think about the lack of LCD options for RED cameras, especially the older cameras like the RED One and DSMC1 which are now discontinued. As a RED One owner, I know HDMI monitors are good options but I still occasionally look on the used marketplace for a 5.6" or 7" RED LCD for making my setup more contained and lighter but all I seem to find is busted for parts units or ones only included in whole kits. So, my question is, if the RED LCD cable has been the same, why couldn't RED make some new non-touch LCD options for us older camera users? Heck, at least something that's supported for a while at least! Even just teaming up with another LCD brand would be nice to have a RED LCD connection option for some units if RED didn't want to make the LCDs themselves. I currently use a Feelworld HDMI LCD that works great but if I could take the big and heavy Sony battery off the back and just run my RED LCD cable to it, I'd be all set!

Zack or anyone else looking. I have both the 5.6 and 7" lightly used in good condition (and cables as well) - I kept them around for housing rentals for the older cameras but not really using them much. Contact info below or through Reduser.
