Description
The SmallHD Indie 7 is a lightweight 7-inch touchscreen monitor for on-camera and handheld work. It gives operators and directors a larger, brighter view than most built-in camera screens. In addition, it weighs just 530 g, so it won’t overload a gimbal or small rig.
Screen and monitoring tools
The 1920 x 1200 IPS panel reaches 1000 nits and covers 100% of Rec 709. That brightness suits daylight exteriors, although direct sun may still call for a hood. PageOS 4 runs on the touchscreen, so you can build custom pages of monitoring tools for each setup.
Connections for most setups
The monitor has two 3G-SDI connectors and HDMI 2.0 inputs and outputs. It can also cross convert between HDMI and SDI, which helps when a camera and receiver use different connections. Meanwhile, the 3.5mm headphone jack gives a quick way to check audio on set.
Power options
A Sony L-Series dual battery bracket supplies power on the move. For longer setups, the 2mm barrel input accepts 10 to 34V DC. The SD card slot also makes it easy to load LUTs or share settings between shoots.
