  • Use this to film over 100 hours of footage and it still going strong! I can’t speak to durability because I haven’t taken it out in the field (I’ve just used it in my studio) but the resolution, brightness, and features are all as described! Makes it MUCH easier to see what I’m recording.
  • This is a great monitor if you don't have the money for an Atmos. I filmed outside with no clouds in 85 degree weather at noon and was able to see my client clearly. I haven't loaded any LUTS to it because I have a LUT on the BMPCC4K. Battery life with an NP-F970 can last about 5-8 hours. If you put two on then it could easily last 10-15 hours. I don't really like the auto sensor for light but you can still turn up the brightness. It is very light and the only weight will come from the battery.It has two spaces for HDMI's and two battery slots. You can also run power to or from it. I recommend not doing that with the BMPCC4K as others have stated that the variability in the output/input could potentially damage your camera. So I would have one battery to power the monitor and one for the camera. Overall a great starter monitor.
  • It's a midrange touch screen, 4k compatible monitor, you can reduce the volume on one side by sliding up and down and on the other side reduce the brightness. Double click the screen to see the menu options and go from here. Most importantly it can charge my BMPCC 4k with its DC input hooked on to a dummy battery. The build looks what you're paying for. It comes with its own case which is nice for storing the monitor and a HDTV to micro wire along with a battery. My last monitor I had to purchase a battery and a micro wire so this is already up there.
  • HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!! I love this. This is the Plus V2, which I didn't realize when I bought. Which I'm very happy about. This is an incredible Monitor, with a few added features over the previous version that are perfection. From the full touchscreen, better interface, the USB-C charging, Focus Peaking, on and on and on and on. I use it everyday and adore it. What else can I say.
  • I am amazed at the power of this product! It has every input/output you will ever need and the touchscreen is extremely responsive and surpassed my excpectations.I have never bought a product that was so good for the money!It works amazing with the sony alpha series cameras and with any other camera you can think of as well!It comes with an amazing travel case and every accessory needed.Buy this and you won't regret it!
  • I have since ordered a second similar product from the same manufacturer, just one size larger, and I'm keeping both. For the price point, it is an incredibly high quality, bright display with versatile mounting options.
  • My trusty old super-cheap on-camera monitor has served me well for some years, but it was time for an upgrade. After some thought and research, I decided upon the Andycine C6… and I’m glad I did. It’s a great piece of kit and one which I am certain will help me hugely with my filmmaking.The monitor comes very nicely packaged, along with a a mini HDMI cable, a micro HDMI cable, a seriously useful tilting arm and even a smart carrier pouch.One of the first things that attracted me to the C6 was the six-inch full HD touchscreen. (You can use physical buttons is you prefer.) It’s a really nice size and is bright, vivid and responsive. Definitely easier to see than most camera screens. Boot-up time was just a handful of seconds, which is more than acceptable. The brightness is automatically adjusted by a sensor according to the ambient light. Love it! Then there’s a plethora of imaging tools, most of which I am going to have get used to utilising: histogram, waveform, vectorscope, false colour, peaking focus, audio levels… all available for adjustment with a tap and a swipe. I can have as many or as few displayed as I choose. I devoted a bit of time to studying the functionality of the screen; time well-spent as it’s now a doddle to use. I have also enjoyed being able to load LUTs via an SD card (maximum of 50) – this is a fabulous addition which I made full use of during my first test ‘run’.I haven't weighed the unit, but it didn't strike me as being overly heavy and it was certainly comfortable to handle and attach.I am very happy with the quality of the display image, especially as it can be altered via hue, saturation, sharpness and contrast. Colours are vivid and visibility is spot-on.Build quality is fine: the monitor body is made of plastic but, with careful handling, should withstand the rigours of filming. Everything seems well-made and I must confess to being rather taken by the overall design.Something else I noticed was that the operation is surprisingly quiet. I was concerned that the fan would be a distraction, but not so. Not a problem. Plus it promises to prevent over-heating, which is a valuable touch.In conclusion: this is a fabulous monitor. Not the cheapest by any means, but equally not the most expensive. After an initial test, I am in no doubt that this is a sound investment and one that I am going to make full use of for years to come. How did I manage without it?
  • Wish I had know about these before, I took some great shots outside in full sun in fresh blinding snow. I could see the screen no problem. Now I don't want to use my camera without it. No video just action shots and stills. On a Canon Eos R.
  • This was exactly what I needed for my Sony A7III. I wanted a screen for my clients to see themselves in front of them, versus having to come around to the camera. The only thing is that it will not show the preview pic in the camera and monitor at the same time. You'll have to unplug the monitor in order for it to show as a preview. But prior to taking the picture, it shows on both screens! Amazing screen regardless and very bright!!!
  • 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.
