Seems like this one could be a great addition to an EOS M with Magic Lantern! :)

[Unnus]

This would probably be sick for older cams!

I've been looking for a 3 inch monitor to use on my BMPCC OG for casual shooting and this one is great! Please keep digging up these little gems Caleb :)

Its not tiny. Its just really far away

[impatrickt]

i *just* saw this on amazon yesterday. LOL what timing.

[TacticalCactusMedia]

This looks like a great addition for my Sigma FP. I've been looking for something small and compact to overcome the fixed screen of the FP. Don't really need the recording functions given the amazing codecs the FP offers. All in all this looks killer, great video.

I've had this on my Amazon wishlist for a few months now. I'm glad to see you recommend this. I can now confidently jump on it.

A little over a year ago, i asked around in some camera groups asking for something similar to this, small screen just for the assist features. I got flamed all over, some say why when its so small when you can’t even see the details well? some even question if my enquiry was a joke, and told me to take the 5” bad boys and just shut up.

Finally, my question is answered and i glad it was Caleb who did so, this is going to help me actively try to create as everything can be tucked into a small bag, i can run and gun while taking less time to dial my exposures and be confident it’s right, and most of all i am happy and relived to feel i’m not insane to want a small monitor, thanks a lot brother.

It’s so cute. Could be great for gimbals and other remote/field setups like using in a car.

[RamasolaProductions]

Caleb, pls test if this is feasible to use with those loupe/finders to use this as an evf. See if the image is good and the pixels isn't to obvious.

[AuthenTech]

Caleb always finding those fun unique camera gadgets

[jackbjack]

Cool review. Always enjoy your content. Yes! “A smallest cinematic camera rig build” would be fun to watch.

I followed your “ultimate handheld rig” build from 3 years ago. Did my own from your suggestions and love it!

[Phoebetheboss]

Yes, tiny cinema package! Sigma FP? Canon Eos M?

[AndyLSB]

you know what could be cool ? one of those small Z Cams, maybe like the E1 or something like that, super small that makes THAT small monitor look "big". Great video as always Caleb !

[ButchNews]

Velly interesting. Guess I need one just because it's so cute.

[tombuck]

I feel like this is a perfect thing to rig to an old MiniDV or 8mm camera 🤔

[heroaomedia]

For cameras that shoot raw but disable backup recording, could you loop this to your atomos and record a backup of the raw recording? So raw HDMI into the Atomos and then hdmi viewing out of the atomos into this recorder to get a backup at 30 fps in 1080?

[BrandonNop]

A compact cinema camera set up would be a fun video! I'd watch

[sinothandodiko]

The monitor is actually cool and absolutely value for money, I am also really interested in the lense you're using in this video

IKAN had a 4inch monitor, some years ago that was good for its price. I used it with the Blackmagic Micro Cinema Camera which was good because it fit perfectly on the small boxed camera. This looks like a good one!
