Finally.. The EVF For Your Smaller Cameras
I just got this really nice SmallHD DP4 EVF combo and used it last week on a Panasonic AF-100. My first impressions are very positive.
The AF_100 as well as other cameras with similar build have very average viewfinders and LCD screens. Thats the trade off for affordable digital cinema cameras. The RED Bomb EVF costs $3200 and it only works on RED. Well, we now have choices for This much need tool at a fair price. I purchased the SmallHD DP4 EVF because I felt the price was right and the company has a great reputation for customer service. I found that out first hand. My DP4 had some dead pixels. Bummer. I emailed SmallHD and the next day they sent out a replacement as well as a shipping label for UPS. Very nice. The replacement did have the older V1 firmware but since all SmallHD monitors have user updatable firmware all I did was download the V1.1 and update the monitor via usb input. I appreciate it when a product can get better after you buy it.
