In the difficult lighting conditions of the Himalayas, from the harsh outdoor sun to the dusky surgical rooms, the AC7 monitor was extremely helpful. Filming a cataract surgery on a macro lens it allowed me to capture incredible detail and keep my focus tight. I'll definitely be taking it on my future documentary projects.

Clear picture, light weight, reliable - that's what I need in a field monitor and that's what I get with SmallHD. The DP4 is my go-to monitor for any situation where I want to be low profile, but need something more than the camera's on-screen LCD screen. Plus, with all the specialty camera gadgets I'm constantly using, the on-camera monitor is rarely even an option. Because the DP4 has HDMI loop-through, I can get my picture for framing and feed a signal out to several SmallHD AC7 monitors via a Teradek Bolt wireless video downlink for my focus puller, video village, etc. Regardless of the situation, I cannot think of one where my SmallHD monitors are not an integral part of my shooting setup.

Life before owning my SmallHD Monitor was filled with a lot of squinting and hoping my detailed focus shifts where turning out as good as it seemed on the small built in lcd display screen on my camera. After every shoot I would run to dump the footage and have to watch all my shots to make sure everything was as it should be. As I got more and more important shoots I could not afford any more guessing. I had to make sure every time I hit record My shot was perfect. Shooting with my SmallHD AC7 monitor gives me the peace of mind to see that final shot on a nice big screen right in front of my eyes as I am shooting it. I now do not have to rush to dump footage and preview on my computer to sleep at night! This is great!

We're loving the SmallHD monitors, a great, clean image and they are nice and robust (we knock them around a bit!). The DP4 is perfect as a pilot monitor being nice and small and the AC7 provides a great view for the camera op, combined with the Paralinx HD downlink, the image quality is unmatched.

The AC7 monitor is wonderful - beautifully clear, large enough for several people to watch but small enough to use handheld (I often use a Noga arm as a handle and let the director or DP wander around with the monitor on a long cable). The false colour and peaking modes are very helpful, as is the ability to deal with various input signals - I use my monitor with my Canon 5D Mark III as well as the C300.

I have been shooting with the AC7 for a couple months now. I couldn't be happier with the color representation of the OLED. It has become a very important part of my rig, both tripod and Steadicam setups. Being an NC native I'm glad to see such great products coming from such a great state! Keep it up SmallHD.

Amazing products as usual - would be nice if the screen protectors had a better way of staying on the screen haha. I've lost one already.

After buying a new Canon C100 my first accessory purchase was the AC7 monitor. Having a great monitor is critical to getting the right exposure levels and keeping your shot in focus, and the SmallHD AC7 is great bang for your buck! I would recommend SmallHD to anyone.

The DP4 by SmallHD is a necessity for slider shots and light enough to carry around in my backpack on hunting trips. Another great feature is being able to use the same batteries as my 5d. The Canon DSLR Preset works great when switching from standby to record mode. Overall the SmallHD DP4 is the best small external monitor for outdoor videographers.

Our SmallHD monitors were invaluable for a few reasons. The DP4 was great because it had the fold down hood and it allowed us to shoot in very bright sunlight and the AC7 was excellent so the client could see what was going on during the filming.
