Wireless palm/field monitor

[Jason Joseph]

Hey all
Just wondering if anyone knew of a Wireless field monitor (doesn't have to be HD). I saw someone carrying one on a shoot but didn't get a change to ask him where he got it from. It wasn't very big and he was wearing it around his neck and i believe it was getting feed from the camera. tried google but to no avail.

thanks

This one of the best. I've had it for about 3 years, and has been great. Go for the superbright one.

Hey Steve

yeah i saw that online, but the one this guy had was so cool looking, like a PDA but with a handle grip, white in colour, must have been 2'5 - 5' in size. any ideas anyone?

Hi Steve,

Can you buy those in the UK - and I'm assuming there's no probs with using wireless audio at the same time.

Like your site, by the way.

Could this have been a MiniTV?
With a small transmitter using the DVB-T band connected to the EVF output on the camera, this could be a good wireless companion to the RedRemote.
You also get a USB receiver that plug into a PC.

MiniTV is big in Korea and slowly growing in Europe.

Many types of this. Korean brand COWON is best known.

Hey Iannis

so one of those MiniTvs can get video feed off the camera wirelessly?
