Hello friend, cool video about honest brightness! I hope manufacturers will one day replace HDMI with USB C so that you can connect lightweight smartphones or tablets, and even better, VR glasses, without a capture card. Just imagine, with VR glasses you will be able to watch the image from the camera directly on the screen! This will be a revolution, I don’t understand how the manufacturers didn’t realize this!
Great monitor review(s). What precise model would you recommend for the Nikon Z9, shooting 4K 25fps and 60 fps in H265 Nlog? So far I have not found a review which addresses this.
Seems like your planning to record internal? If so Atomos Ninja V+ is what I use or BlackMagic Video Assist but I had my critiques on that unit which didnt lead me to purchase. Good luck 🫡
I don't know why your camera is not labeled PRO, but according to Viltrox, the 550 PRO is the only model with a touch screen. If the standard 550 does have a touch screen, then the only difference with the PRO is some extra histograms and waveforms. From the Viltrox store: _DC-550 Pro is a touch screen version, which covers touch screen & button settings; DC-550 is a non-touch screen version, only supports button settings_
Yea I was wondering about that when I did my review but it could been a typo somewhere . Im glad you investigated it 🫡 It would be interesting if they somehow changed it since my review. I should take a look at it as I use the unit currently .
Recently picked up the newer f500. I should have picked this up instead. However this does not come with a battery charger. If you pickup additional batteries those most likely will not have the usb charging battery. Yours looks like the pro version which is close to 200 not the 135 you showed.
Howdie~! You are correct, this doesnt comes with a NPF charger so you will need to purchase one alone. They run roughly 20 bucks. Also the version I have isnt the PRO version. If you go to 2:08 second, zoom in close to the crossed out price, it is $168. The reason you see $134 is because this is during the holiday sale. They should be back to normal pricing at $168. It was a good deal since I seen other monitors around this price tag that isnt near as bright or sturdy. Good luck~!
Im still shock on how bright the monitor is. Can see very clear in bright condition. Are you asking for the weight of the unit with the hood and battery?
It seems that this monitor can mirror the Nikon camera display setup, is that right? i mean...can i see my values and my focus points? can i set the focus point with my nikon z9 and see it on the external without the need of viewing the camera monitor? thanks !!
@@tiagophotos1 I even use this as my selfie screen this past weekend. I had my radio trigger and saw all the Autofocus happening. I wish we had a flip screen but this will do and its bigger than a flip screen. Are you doing video or photo?
Yes! I wish there was a picture reply feature on RUclips but I am using the monitor now with my z6ii. Works great! Love the on and off switch on the monitor.
@@pepebenitezruizTesting it now to triple check. Yes. The monitor works and also the screen of the camera works with all information being displayed. I wish youtube would let me reply with a photo.

Is the weight with battery and sun hood? How’s the screen for focus pulling?
Im still shock on how bright the monitor is. Can see very clear in bright condition. Are you asking for the weight of the unit with the hood and battery?
Can it be used to record n-log like atmos ninja v ?
It does not. Just a viewing monitor.
Does it work with 4k 50fps recording? Seems like it supports 25fps only. Im confused and cant find answer anywhere
So you want the monitor to run 50 FPS in 4k?
@@theCameraVille I want it to display 1080p with 50fps while the camera is set to 4k50fps
It seems that this monitor can mirror the Nikon camera display setup, is that right? i mean...can i see my values and my focus points? can i set the focus point with my nikon z9 and see it on the external without the need of viewing the camera monitor? thanks !!
It basically mirrors everything on the Nikon screen, on the monitor. So you can adjust through the external monitor correct.
@@theCameraVille woow thats awesome !! Ordering just now !

hi! Does it work with a nikon z6II? Thanks for this video :)
Yes! I wish there was a picture reply feature on RUclips but I am using the monitor now with my z6ii. Works great! Love the on and off switch on the monitor.
Oh! That's perfect then! I was thinking in buy this one and after your review, I think I'll buy it :) thanks for your reply!
@@olgasegurafotografia nice ~!@ I hope you have fun with it~! I just recently reset to default setting, just got carried away adjusting the colors.
Does this monitor lets you record 10 bit N-log in Nikon Z6 ii?
Look up Atomos and black magic. Only 2 recommended.
both screens work at same time?
Do you mean the Monitor Screen and the Viltrox?
Yes, with all informations
@@pepebenitezruizTesting it now to triple check. Yes. The monitor works and also the screen of the camera works with all information being displayed. I wish youtube would let me reply with a photo.
but... no full screen???
what do you mean
