Came for monitor, stayed for review. This is how it's done, straight to the point, information packed, and thorough. You sold a monitor and your channel in one video. Sub'd. 👍👍👍
@@photojoseph Received monitor, however it's having issues with my A6300. Sony is notorious for not allowing dual record and playback on camera and external monitor when recording to internal memory as I've just found out. The work around is an external monitor recorder, one of which you mentioned in this video. Thought this may be some insight for others. Thank you for the Atomos recommendation, probably the route I will need to go.
Asterngeisha oh no! What a drag. It’s crap like that that really frustrates me… those little details you never hear about. So sorry man. For the record, LUMIX cameras like GH5 have no problem with this 😏 Good luck and hopefully the Atomos solves the issue!
One of those rare reviews where I felt not a moment was wasted. I have recently bought an ESDDI F5 which appears to be identical and I learnt several things from your review. Thank you for doing this.
UPDATE: You *can* use a Canon battery. It's really hard to get in, but it does go in. And it's even harder to get out. Use NP batteries. Much easier. Smaller, 5-inch monitors are all the rage these days. You can spend over $1,000 or well under $200. The features will of course vary, but for those on a budget (or even those not), is the Feelworld F5 geni.us/g7p9dT worth considering?

I purchased this last week...have yet to really use it in the field. Excited to give it a good. Thanks for your menu review-saved me from reading so much. Just used for (so far) photography! Thanks again.
It takes some fiddling but the canon battery does fit. You have to start it at the far end of the slot, push the battery release button in and then slide it over.
Dang, you're right… I had to kind of angle it in to get it past the first stop. And it was even harder to get out. Definitely not recommended! Thanks for letting me know; I'll update the text here.
@@photojoseph gotcha I already purchased 1 to Amazon and cross fingers this one will work I would like to confirm , just connect the wiring , fire the monitor and it should work right away
I bought the Feelworld F5 monitor so I could have a forward facing monitor for recording UA-cam videos. It seems to work just fine, except some buttons on my camera stop working when the monitor is turned on, INCLUDING THE record button for video and the shutter release. The menu and playback buttons also stop functioning. Which all kinda defeats the purpose of having a monitor if it stops the camera from working. my camira is pnasonic lumixx G7
Have a larger model but no battery pack option. Backup monitor for my video switcher pack. Is 4k. No ac power supply, no bracket, however I paid $160 for it from B&H
Yeah I forgot to mention that it does come with an HDMI cable; I just can't find it. And the USB; well since it's hardly ever needed, why make it special, right?
While using this monitor, does your camera monitor go off? I have a canon 90D and have this problem with one of the monitors made by feelworld, but not this exact one
@@photojoseph thanks for the reply! Basically I have a iPhone13 with a beastgrip pro. I purchased this monitor so that I can mount it on my beastgrip. I also have a top handle grip that the monitor sits on top of. I'm trying to MMA sessions. The sounds in person is what I'm trying to capture as they grapple.
oh you won't find one. Monitors are meant to be used on camera, so if it had a speaker, it'd be picked up by the microphones. You need headphones in a recording environment. So no one would build a monitor with a speaker built in.
Hey Joseph. Great review! I've just purchased this monitor but I can't figure out how to move the zoomed-in area from the centre of the screen to other areas. Is this possible with this monitor?
Huge fan of the channel. Thank you for making my GH5 a joy. I have 2 of these monitors but they're branded 'Andycine 4k'. Exact same body, menu etc etc. Love them, but...........big problem for me is that when connected to my GH5 I can't hear the beeps when I start & stop recording, even though silent mode is off and the Beep volume is high. It's the same for both monitors. As soon as I unplug the monitor the Beep comes back. I can't find a way to fix this. Even tried a full reset on my GH5 but to no avail. Any ideas on how I can use the monitor and still hear the Beep from my GH5 would be much appreciated. More than once I have found myself stopping recording when I thought I was starting recording, usually when the action is happening fast and there's not much time to check all my settings. Is this common with all monitors? They're the only two I've used so far. Thank you.
@@photojoseph hi and thanks for replying. Already tried Panasonic - silence was the loud reply ha ha. I guess not surprising right now. Will keep pestering them as I think it's an important one. Cheers.
Great review. Would there be any issues in recording 1080 @120fps? It was mentioned that recording 4K 60 leads to a no signal issue but how does it handle 1080 @120?
Those specs would be listed on their site but it depends what you mean by 1080p120. A file that is 120fps? No, it’s unlikely to capture that. A file that was shot at 120fps but output at 30fps? Yes. You have to look at the output. On LUMIX cameras when you’re shouting VFR the capture framerate and the output framerate are different.
PhotoJoseph thanks. Ye, I guess I’m talking about recording at 120fps but I’m not sure what the camera is actually outputting on those settings. Thanks for your reply.

Why thank you! If you’re not in a rush, I have two more units in reviewing right now.
Oh wait you already bought… I saw that 🤓
I have had no issues putting Canon batteries on there. You have to press in the button at back for it to slide on.

Can we use this 1 to iPhone 13 Pro Max or 14 pro max
And from HDMI chord converter to type C? Will it work?
iPhone lightning to HDMI adapter is what you need to use this monitor (or any monitor) with an iPhone
@@photojoseph gotcha I already purchased 1 to Amazon and cross fingers this one will work

The G7 does not support simultaneous internal recording and output over HDMI.

This review was excellently done I have to say. I'm subscribing for sure.
Best comment of the day ! ;-)
Excellent review! Thanks for the info!
You're welcome!
Look forward to more product reviews! :) Maybe you could review something for the GH5s? A low budget gimbal that does not take too long to set-up? :)
How low budget is low budget?
I guess lower than Ronin Gimbal.:)
Like the Atomos cable... MINI-USB? That was a while ago - but a trademark for cheaper gear obviously.
Yeah I forgot to mention that it does come with an HDMI cable; I just can't find it. And the USB; well since it's hardly ever needed, why make it special, right?
@@photojoseph as I recall, micro USB worked just fine, and I never broke one of them...
I never understand why a manufacturer uses one port over another. Probably availability and cost of parts?
@@photojoseph probably, and the 'old' ports are still around in surplus storages for a tenth of the cost.

What’s the battery life for an NPF 550?
I purchased this for my iPhone 13. Unfortunately I'm not able to use a external mic :(
This is a really old video, but I'm not sure how you'd want to use this and a mic and an iPhone… if you want to elaborate I can try to help
@@photojoseph thanks for the reply! Basically I have a iPhone13 with a beastgrip pro. I purchased this monitor so that I can mount it on my beastgrip. I also have a top handle grip that the monitor sits on top of. I'm trying to MMA sessions. The sounds in person is what I'm trying to capture as they grapple.
Is anybody or do U have a problem with sound? It doesn’t play sound out my monitor
I haven't used this in so long now I couldn't say, sorry
@@photojoseph could you point me in the direction of a monitor that has a speaker instead of using a headphone jack? im trying to look for one now
oh you won't find one. Monitors are meant to be used on camera, so if it had a speaker, it'd be picked up by the microphones. You need headphones in a recording environment. So no one would build a monitor with a speaker built in.
Is there a reason why my monitor is only showing in black and white?
IIRC there is a B&W mode. Sounds like it's activated.
I have this but when I press record it goes black and says it is recording
it's a monitor, not a recorder
@@photojoseph I should see what I am recording yes or no?
@@jstylephotography oh I understand. What camera?
@@photojoseph I use it on my lumix g7 and my nikon d610 I get the same result. Black screen and a text that says video is now recording
@@jstylephotography don’t know about the Nikon but yes the G7 does that. Lower end cameras don’t output video while recording unfortunately.
Any idea if you can scale the whole image down to 3 inches? Not the aspect ratio
You mean to scale the image within the monitor, so it has big black borders? No… why would you want to do that?
Built in speaker at this price?
I doubt it. This video is a couple of years old. Click the product link and see what it says.
Hey Joseph. Great review! I've just purchased this monitor but I can't figure out how to move the zoomed-in area from the centre of the screen to other areas. Is this possible with this monitor?
It’s been a while since I used this but I’m pretty sure you can. That said if it’s not in the menu then I guess not. Odd.

How interesting; I really don't know because I have all sounds turned off on my cameras. That may be a question for Panasonic support, sorry!

Can you use the monitor just for photography?
Sure thing
Link a monitor in Amazon please
It was already in the description but here it is again geni.us/g7p9dT
Got this for 109 dollars lightly used as my first monitor
Nice!
