Good Affordable External Monitor for the Gh3?

[Jonathan L Roberts]

Hey guys, I'm back. Learned a lot here, so came back to ask a question. I know have a both of lenses ( 12-35 2.8 and 35-100mm 2.8 ), completing my lenses for right now. So far I have two cameras, the rebel t3i with the 17-50mm 2.8 lens, 85mm 1.8, 50mm 1.8 ( which I'll be selling soon, since I really don't need it to be honest ) and the gh3 with those two lenses I've mentioned. I have two rigs by CPM film tools ( Bulldog & CPM Handheld 3.0 rig ), so I guess I'm a little bit for professional than last time where me and my friend were busy holding cameras with our hands & giving our clients shaky footage ( very amateurish ). Being prepared is vital to me, so I wanna' bring the best to my future clients. Anyways, the question is there an affordable external monitor with focus peaking, zebras, false color etc etc? I've seen some like the SMALLHD DP4 which is around 600 bucks for a 4.3 inch monitor ( pretty small to me ). Any alternatives?

Also, what's your view on the D Focus follow focus? I wanna' pull focus more effectively with my gh3 and t3i. Thank you.

I just ordered the Delvcam 7" field monitor from B&H. I should have it by tomorrow. The specs. are pretty impressive for the price. Here's the link: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1053572-REG/delvcam_delv_wform_7_7_camera_top_monitor.html

I'll let you know what I think about it in a couple of days.
