Hey everyone. This is my first post on dvxuser, love the forum and need some help so be kind to a newbie =)

I have been shooting with dslr since d90, 550d and i currently have a 60d and looking to invest into some new gear.
First off i wan't to buy an external monitor. I don't really know which brand to get, i have read that lilliput is okay if u're on a budget, and if u wan't
pro features u should look into smallhd, marshall, tvlogic etc.

The criteria i have for the monitor is -
  • Around 5.6 inch, a 7 inch feels to big for a fieldmonitor.
  • Correct color representation for exposure.
  • Peaking for easier focusing
  • Budget around 700-1000 euro.
Moving on to a decent tripod i'm not looking for a big chunky studio tripod. I'm more in the market for a leight weight tripod for traveling and gorilla style shooting.
I have previously used manfrotto 501hdv kit and it was okay.

The criteria for a new tripod and head is -

  • Not to heavy
  • Big plus if u can to super low with it.
  • Should be able to counterblance a fully rigged fs700/scarlet
  • Budget around 1000 euro.
As u may know by now i'm lost, don't know what gear to buy. But i know that i wan't to "future proof" myself, i'm thinking of buying a fs700 or scarlet in the near future so i don't wan't to buy gear
just specific for dslr use. Nevertheless i hope u could understand my english it's not my native tounge and i hardly ever use it.

* And one other thing i wan't to buy the gear from a europe dealer, becuse of vat, customs fees etc

Thanks anyway / Marcus
