Well we have had our Sony LMD 9050 8.4" Multiformat Portable Flat Screen Monitor for a couple of days now and here is what we think... http://www.sonybiz.net/
Having been looking for a reliable portable HD monitor to use with the JVC HD101 for critical work out in the field - this unit is quite simply - superb!
The picture quality is first class and despite a small screen (compared to the usual 10" field monitor types) the image really stands out - razor sharp.
The unit is light (not light enough to fit on top of a camera) and has a small footprint - approx 15cm x 20cm
It has V-Lock, 4 Pin XLR & Mains inputs.
It has all the usual Pro monitor controls
It has various in/outs on the rear panel - Composite/Component/SDI HD
Adjustable base stand
Having followed so many threads on portable monitors for months now, it is great to have got something we are very pleased with for the kind of work we do. I realise that for many folks this unit would be costly... we were not looking to spend as much as we did, but the joy of using this unit with the camera and the peace of mind it brings was well worth it. We also take stock of the new JVC 17" HD Monitor for use in the studio in a couple of days - will report on how that works out.
