-range for the monitor is up to about 30 feet or more, a bit less depending on what’s in the way.
-the transmitter will send the video or still photo feed wirelessly to one or more monitors.
-transmitter and receiver run off a 9-volt battery; monitor is rechargeable and runs 2-3 hours continuously. Draw on the nine volt battery is minimal: the transmitter draws only 70mA.
-transmitter has a 3.5mm stereo miniphone connector to go into cameras with A/V out, like the Canon 5dmk2. It uses a mono 3.5mm miniphone input for cameras like the Canon mk2, Mk3, etc, which have a video out (as opposed to A/V out, which is usually a stereo connection). Specify camera when ordering.
-works with video liveview in preview or record mode. No delays.
-transmitter attaches to camera strap via a clip.
-receiver unit and battery pack is built onto the back of the monitor and has on/off switch.
-color monitor is seven inches and displays standard definition, 480p. Monitor can be used for watching TV if you’re not using as a photography monitor. It’s sleek and lightweight; no visible antenna.
-monitor – in most cases – has a standard size, 1/4″ threaded base for mounting to stand, tripod, Bogen Magic Arm or various Red Rock-type hardware.
