Best monitor for 5D markii Video Shooting at DVinfo.net

Silas Barker · August 15th, 2010, 08:17 PM

I need something for outdoor shooting and the 5d screen is not very good outdoors. Got to have a good battery that will last 8 hours (or multiple batteries), easy to see in really bright light, and mountable on the 5D camera hot shoe or something easy to set up. Durable and under $900.

I know Marshall makes one, but not sure what models are good?

Thanks for the input!

It depends on what you're gonna use it for -- if it's only for frame and focus, I'd recommend the Ikan V5600. However, since it does not have any false colors, it's not very useful to ride aperture, etc.
