I use Tiffen VND's. Not stupidly expensive - especially if you can pick one up on Ebay - and work wonderfully. I have used my 82mm Tiffen VND for test footage from subtle to extreme using Magic Lantern 14bit Raw on a 5D3 with a 16-35 L f4 (sharp lens!) and it was superb. No observable distortion...

I'm using a Moza Slypod Pro for motion - it's doing very well & producing great results, very much like the product videos show. The 'Moza Master App (IOS/Android)' for wireless BT movement, control etc functions well enough also. However I try to avoid apps as much as possible, preferring...

Thanks for your replies fellas. With the kit I have it would seem that the Canon EF 50mm f1.4 would, as tried, give the closest approximation to the FF 85mm 1.8 on the crop sensor APSC. Next experiment is to try the EF 50mm f1.4 on the GH5s with a Viltrox EF-M2 II 0.71x - it delivers f1.2 from...

I'm using the Canon EF 85mm F1.8 on 5D2 (full frame sensor). It's a combination that produces beautiful sharp images that have a very shallow DOF and attractive bokeh. Focusing is super fine and demands careful placement - for example if used at F1.8 on a face for interviews etc the subjects...

I opted for the FeelWorld LUT5 - its just right for me. Light. Bright. Compact. Not overly hungry for battery power - a cheapo NP F550 lasted 110 mins on test. Good features & spec. Build quality is solid enough. Colours seem pretty good right out of the box. Only wish the touch screen...

Thanks MM. I'm encouraged by your use of Feelworld in a professional context. Upon reflection, although 7" would be handy it would be quite a handful when out in the real world. LUT5 5.5 Inch DSLR Field Video 3000nits at £174 in UK and seems to tick my boxes for a more concise option. I can...

The FEELWORLD LUT7 is looking like a decent choice to me right now. Ebay UK has a 'Kit' version available right now which includes an NP battery & charger along with a case, tilt arm & cable for £239 delivered here in the UK. One caveat though - description spec states it as Secam and UK is...

You certainly get a lot for your money with that model. Seems Feelworld are the market leaders outside the major brands.

Good points to consider. I have used a sun shade before now but they are less than ideal. Nice and bright would be optimum. With brightness comes power requirements and I presume the trusty Sony NP is still the standard battery fitting for most of the Chinese monitors? I've seen a few crazy high...

Hmmmm... Thinking about it more as suggested, I don't really need a recorder and 5", 6"or 7" would be fine by me. I'm not a 'heavy handler' or shooting in tough environments - mainly parks, gardens, interviews & wildlife and all under tight control - so build quality doesn't have to be...

Hello I bought a GH5s back in 2019 but due to illness only got to use it for a short while & never got to purchase the Atomos monitor I rather liked. 5 years later....what would be my best options now. Bright, pref 4k but 2k is fine, able to employ LUTS, decent battery life etc. Maybe a...
