LOL. No it is not "ones that didn't survive the quality criteria". Photo is took at certain brightness and certain angle. Plus it is few of big amount of monitors sold via deals. Such leak happen due to panel manufacturing if edges are not tensioned properly.

I'm sorry, It was my intention to be more constructive and certainly not to put any negativity on the dealproducts. I am actually near the point of ordering one 7" monitor. The backlight thing worries me a bit among the general value of using a monitor in the field. It already takes to much time to prepare the equipment during a hike. A monitor would gain time with focus and better exposure options.

I've got one more question. How does the monitor coop with the conversion of a 1080i hdmi signal to a 720p/800p display. Is the 1080i actually a 1080p stream like with the 25/30p modes? Does it deinterlace or can one experience interlace artifacts on moving subjects? And if it deinterlaces, does it end up with a representative resolution for 720p/800p?

From now on each and every monitor offered will be manually tested for spills on different brightness, and ones with not good parameters send back to manufacturing.

Just wondering whether it'll work, the BMCC seems pretty picky where monitors are concerned.

I see no reasons why it must have any problems here.

Back in January, pages 2-4 of this thread, we were exploring 2x anamorphic desqueeze settings. It was not possible then. @Vitaliy_Kiselev, I understand that communication with the manufacture was to follow, a view toward possible firmware update.

Has 2x anamorphic desqueeze now become possible with this monitor or other model? Thank you.

Thanks @Vitaliy_Kiselev . Probably wait and see where the Odyssey model(s) unfold with CD's firmware roadmap.

That's true. Once the CD O7 comes out, it will challenge the outlook for some of the medium to higher priced monitor manufacturers, especially if CD can quickly get the features into their firmware. The O7Q interests me, future firmware, it will record up to 4 cams in 1080p in 10-bit compressed format, all timecode sync, make my post work easier, and I get to hire it out to some clients. Just some thoughts. Thank you for your reply.

The problem with the BMPCC must be something else than only progressive vs. PsF.

The Ikans and Seetec don't work, while the work just fine on a RED (strictly progressive) or GH2 (PsF). Marshal and SmallHD work.

Anybody can confirm definitely if the Neway works with BMPCC?

Got my CL76HO-X today. The build quality looks good. Light and solid.

I like the menu navigator and buttons on the monitor. Nice and easy to use.

However, the color and the resolution aren't that great. Not what I expected but usable.

Will try it on BMPCC once I get my microHDMI cable.

Well, compared to my Zacuto EVF Pro, it's quite far from what I'm used to. As they always say "you get what you pay for" :)

Tested on GH2, the color is quite warm.

Overall it's a great usable field monitor so far, especially for the price point.

The only thing I wish is if they could fix the custom aspect ratio to get anamorphic lens desqueezed properly.

This one I do not understand. Last time I checked EVF Pro is 800x480 viewfinder. So remark about some resolution issues with Neway is strange. Btw picture on low res monitor (or projectors) can look sharper as you see grain and lines between pixels.

This is fixable by adjustments. Usually using some test chart.

Problem is no one advertised them as having "anamorphic lens desqueez" :-) Restrictions to rations arise to used chipset restrictions as I understand and have nothing to do with software or implementation.

So what do you guys recommend for 5D mark 3 ?? Did some1 made some tests or its better to wait for new models to come out ?
