I MUST SAY IM VERY VERY VERY PLEASED and this will be my go-to monitor. LOVE IT. feels a little cheap but it keeps the weight off of your rig. A MUST HAVE

what would make this monitor (SDI HDMI version) almost perfect? a built-in waveform. not sure why a histogram is the only option. otherwise, yes, this screen is incredibly bright and the case feels robust. bought to replace a very old Marshall monitor and having a battery life readout is blissful!

I live in sunny Southern California and I love how bright this monitor is in pure daylight. I don't use a hood with it but that's because I don't need one. I use it with the GH5S and I feel that a monitor of this kind is essential because of that camera's inarticulate screen.Having this as a dedicated monitor on my gimbal allows for me to switch set-ups with my camera with ease and efficiency. In the future I plan on switching this monitor over to a handheld client monitor rig for viewing purposes or follow-focus rig depending on the shoot and it feels good knowing I can get that kind of versatility out

I have a camera that I use to take photos mostly outdoor, but as you can see, the screen is small and dark. Not ideal if you like to check your work right away for any flaws. So I was looking at options for portable monitor which could be used for that exact purpose. My criteria for the monitor was resolution, brightness, and size. Although bigger the better, a standard photo print size is more applicable IMO.I decided to give X7 a shot, and boy I am in love with my new gadget. The first reaction I got when I turn on the screen was "Geez that's bright." Then I had to lower the brightness by more than 50 indoor to protect my eyes haha. When I was testing it outdoor on a sunny day, I find it very comfortable to look at with 80 to 90 brightness. The 4K screen beats the little crappy screen on the camera hands down. Also, I have noticed the screen is non-glare, I can comfortably see the pictures without shielding the screen, like I always had to with any camera, even my iPhone.Very satisfied with it so far. I would update if I find anything else worth sharing! :)

Display is very bright and easy to view during harsh daylight. Lots of monitoring tools like waveforms. Construction is ok...

This is a must have monitor for any camera, especially for the blackmagic pocket cinemas. It’s not only 2600 nits, but the 1920x1080 picture it produces is beautiful and not valued enough! It’s a light enough monitor that won’t add any extra weight on rigs and gimbals and small enough to fit in your camera bag.

First thing, wow this monitor is super bright in the midday sun!! My main reason for purchase was it's 2200 nits. Compared to my other 7" monitor this blows it away in that regard. It's definitely a nice size also, 7" seems to be my preferred monitor size these days no matter what rig i'm using. Build is nice, it's lightweight and most importantly easy to use. Customizable buttons on top also help a lot when operating quickly. I do most of my work shooting outdoors so this is a no-brainer. Has all the features you need too like false color, LUTs, all the scopes, anamorphic etc etc...some competitors may have slightly more rugged feel, but how can you beat the price point of this monitor? Definitely recommend this to anyone shooting video...loving it!!

After I bought the device on the off chance that there were no ratings yet, I have to say that I am very satisfied. The image transmitted by the camera is razor sharp and the peaking can be easily graded. Works very well in 4K. It can happen that with Record the image is no longer transferred to the monitor; here I had to search for a while in the menu of my Sony NX80 to find the menu item: "4K recording external output". So don't be surprised if the monitor goes black as soon as you switch to record in 4K; Check the camera whether it allows external output in the format. No problem with HD.

Very good product for the price, very bright screen, plastic quality could be better.

Which I could control the camera through the touch screen to pick focus and other settings. But beyond that flawless can see in bright sun!

In my opinion the best monitor money can buy, resolution is great and so sharp. But you have to consider to get the mount and battery separately
