This Monitors give to us some advantages, like this :
1. crystal clear, full screen display for canon 7D and Vixia HF G10
Although there were some minor problems with this monitor, (read on) I was able to get a crystal clear, superb image that filled the screen on BOTH my canon 7D and my Canon Vixia HF G10 camcorder. I ordered a Vello CB-500 Dual Shoe Bracket and Pearstone 8.3" (21.1cm# Articulating Israeli Arm I am using this monitor on a separate bracket with articulating arm for my camcorder as well as the Canon 7D. The Canon Vixia HF G10 Canon VIXIA HF G10 Full HD Camcorder with HD CMOS Pro and 32GB Internal Flash Memory has focus assist, great manual settings, and features that translate very well into critical focus when used with this Lilliput monitor. It also works well for still photography and video with my 7D and great in playback. This monitor is all it says it is and great for the price point. No more squinting, squatting, and going blind looking...
2. Have a few problems that need to be fixed
First off let me say when it's in HD mode, it's great. That's when it is.
I shoot with a GH2 so all of this info comes from that view point.
1. No matter what mode I put it in, full screen, 16/9, whatever, it cut off about 5% of the screen on the edges. Confirmed on my Marshall.
2. To get it to work in HD mode, you need to enable either histogram of exposure settings. Problem with this is that you can no longer control color temp in this mode. It's all locked up. So, if you want to adjust color temp to match what you are actually shooting (a little helpful) you need to switch back to SD mode which shifts the color temp. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention when you enable HD mode, you get one hell of a color temp shift in this bad boy! So you have to go back and forth, guessing what you're doing till you kinda get it right. Not very fun.
I contacted Lilliput directly and they asked me for an invoice number. I told them I bought it off of amazon and the...
Need more appointment... ?
Amazing little monitor
I'm using my Lilliput 5D-II monitor with my Panasonic Lumix GH-2 and just love this thing. Focus peaking works very well, 1:1 pixel mapping is great. The HD resolution is the best thing though. The picture is just so crisp and clear, it's so easy to judge your focus, even without the peaking. It definitely needs the sun hood during the day, but I fully knew that buying it when I saw it's brightness rating, and just about any monitor this size does. Just do be aware.
The build quality is very good. Has a real professional look and feel IMO. I use the Sony battery and it gives me a good 2 hours of use. Only complaint, and it's small, is the time it takes to bring the signal back up if I change camera modes. If I change between playback and camera mode it interrupts the HDMI signal and it takes a good 4 seconds to bring the image back up, but that's about the only annoyance I've found. Just a great product for a really great price!
