SmallHD unveils its first 7-inch touchscreen monitor, the FOCUS 7. Modeled after the 5-inch FOCUS, it is designed for use with low-profile camera setups. Daylight viewable, the FOCUS 7 provides full HD resolution and power output functionality--for under $700.
The original 5-inch FOCUS monitor was successful because it made shooting with a small DSLR or mirrorless cameras so much easier, says Dale Backus, SmallHD Co-Founder. The FOCUS 7 offers similar functionality, while adding display size and resolution, without adding bulk. The new monitor weighs less than a pound.
Martin Vann, SVP of Sales and Marketing for Creative Solutions adds, The new FOCUS 7 is the latest addition to our popular FOCUS series. The line has grown to include integrated wireless monitors with Teradek Bolt technology, as well as OLED and SDI offerings.
The FOCUS 7 on-camera monitor features a 1000-nit bright, 1920x1200 resolution, IPS LCD touchscreen display. With full-size HDMI input, it is capable of accepting video up to 4k resolution at 30fps. The 2 integrated Sony L Series battery slots are conveniently hot swappable. In addition, this monitor provides a 3.5mm barrel output that can supply power to small DSLR and mirrorless cameras, using battery specific adapter cables.
Mounting solutions for the FOCUS 7 include (4) each 1 4 -20 threads and an optional Tilt Arm mounting accessory. Customized for the 7 touchscreen, the new Tilt Arm utilizes the camera's cold shoe and provides friction-based tilt for easy monitor adjustments.
Equipped with SmallHD OS3 software and SWIPE user interface, the FOCUS 7 offers the operator quick-customizable professional tools including HD Waveform, Vectorscope, False color and Focus Assist/Peaking, Anamorphic De-squeeze, Framing Guides, and unlimited 3D LUTs via SD card.
The FOCUS 7 measures 6.9 /17.5cm wide, 4.7 /11.9cm high and just 1 /2.5cm deep, and weighs 11.28-oz/0.319kg. It is available immediately from the global network of SmallHD resellers and partners. For more information or to order online, visit: www.smallhd.com/focus7
