10" 1024x600 monitor with battery and HDMI input for your upcoming GH2, $130 only

I would consider selling mine... it's not particularly good in low light situations and a lot of my stuff is shot in those conditions. Open to offers!

I hadn't taken notice of all the many features that this monitor has e.g. analogue TV tuner (useful for just the next two months until switchover to digital in my area:-) it also will play various video formats off a USB stick or SDHC card so could be useful for showing off videos too. The total price was $150 delivered plus I had to pay £12.43 customs duty & tax so the total price was about £105 which is just amazing value.

Does it play MP4 off the USB stick? And if so, just 720p or the full HD?
 
I sent an email to Mr Viner Chan asking if there would be a firmware upgrade to make the Leadstar 1088 compatible with my Kiss X4 /550d /T2i. I did receive a quick response but not helpful atoll. See below.

Dear Donald K McPherson
Thanks for your mail.
I am so sorry that we did not test it with 550D
Hope you can understand.

With this answer I cant see an upgrade.

There's a new 7" kid in town that lots of Chinese sites and Ebay sellers are reselling. They all claim 'Screen Resolution: 1920 x 1080', and back it up with bulls**t like 'OEM price - $450 cheaper than same branded version". All the resellers think they're 1080p panels, so lots of people are being duped - especially at the absurd price of ~$150 US.

I made an Ebay seller get in touch with the manufacturer, and have confirmed that these are 800x480 screens like every other 7" HDMI monitor! In fact, I noticed that the case looked exactly like the 668GL from Liliput, and the specs seem to match too - apparently they are in fact from the same factory, just rebadged. If so they're not bad screens with lots of firmware options (colour adjustments, flipping) and bright with batteries - but they ain't 1080p panels.

Interesting that one of the Chinese sites I asked to verify the 1080p claim (linked above) has now stopped selling them altogether. Maybe the lie is collapsing.

Not necessarily, these guys are selling the Chinese Leadstar with free shipping @ $96US. The problem is that Konsta's only offers couriers while they're offering standard mail.

Beware of those guys- I ordered one, it never arrived.

They gave ma a tracking number for Chinese post and it says "delivered on April 5th "- signature "Rita".
Well my name is not Rita and in the whole house lives nobody named Rita.

I still haven´t received anything and the seller don´t respond to e-mails.
I opened a dispute, he denied refund. Now I try to get my money back via Paypal (yeah, "good luck", I know.)
