Depends on how accurate your needs are. The monitor scales 1920×1080 footage to fit 800 x 480. Same with any of the small HD monitors. The Marshall model may be of further interest, as you can use the “Pixel to Pixel” function and have it fill the 800×480 screen with just the center of the 1920×1080 image. http://www.dvcreators.net/marshall-electronics-7-lcd-monitor/
Also, you might want to look at LCDracks.com at the new OLED monitors that soon to be available. The clearest picture I have seen for those with the most critical eye and budget is the OLED monitors. Sony’s XEL-1 starts at $2499 ouch http://tinyurl.com/3vz3kl

Hi would this be acurate enough to focus a Sony hxr-mc1p bullet cam? It records at 1920×1080/50i but your monitor seems to do 1080x720p. Am I missing something here? : )

Many thanks.

The best your going to get with this monitor is 720p

get the letus 35mm adapter, then you don’t have to worry about your picture being flipped….. I’ve been using it for months with great results

Hi Jim, I’m glad that you like the IKAN. It’s a great little lightweight monitor. The zebra pattern is only in the camera display and does not feed out of the component output. It’s the same on all cameras. I’m not sure that there is a camera out there that feed the zebra pattern through the camera’s output.

I got this IKAN monitor for Xmas and just received my BNC adapters. I am using it with the Canon XH A1. It works very well, one thing I noticed is it doesn’t show the zebra stripes on the monitor, only the lcd. is there a way to make the zebra stripes appear on the monitor?

Thanks
