Should You Buy a Camera Monitor? | Feelworld FW759 Review | The Film Look

[@iSpike]

Awesome 🤩 Here we are 5 years later and your video has confirmed I purchased a good little monitor 23/02/2022. Cheers from Western Australia 🇦🇺 🫵🏻 😎 👍🏻

[@matiasrquiroga]

I'm really surprised by the technical quality of your videos, how they look and how they sound, considering you're just starting your channel! Congratulations, and keep up the good work!

[@TheFilmLook]

+Matías Quiroga Thank you! That really means a lot. We figured if we kept the quality as high as we can make them from day one, people have more of a reason to subscribe. It's really nice to know we are heading in the right direction.

[@raduantoniu]

What an amazing review. So much creativity in the shots and the edit is very nice as well. Awesome!

[@steven_shaltiel]

I have a similar monitor, I recommend getting a mattifying anti-glare screen protector meant for laptops or tablets, and cutting out a 7-inch piece to fit your monitor, works like a charm! :)

[@TheFilmLook]

+Steven Shaltiel ahh good plan! Thank you Steven, we'll get on that :)

[@airtime23]

Man, you are really a likable dude :). Good balance between serious information while not taking yourself too seriously :)

[@TheFilmLook]

Awesome to hear! Thank you!

[@tonymyers4873]

Your content is unbelievably good for the size of the channel🤝

[@GetBusyLiving]

Great review, and super well produced, I'm subbing based on that alone and am sure you will have other tips I can use - thanks!

[@TheFilmLook]

Thanks for the sub!

[@rivius5491]

Nice video, man. I just ordered this one - my Aputure one got baked using a powerbank.

[@TheFilmLook]

Ahh man, that's a shame. Hope this one serves you well!

[@ifn_media]

Ah, something lots of folk don't know when using powerbanks, good you shared your misery :)

[@azmir_ali8387]

Tq for the great info. I just ordered one. Its on the way

[@matthewbentler6399]

Great review! My media school was buying a couple of these and I was wondering if they were any good.

[@TheFilmLook]

So far I haven't found anything particularly bad with it. It's nice and sharp, built very well (plastic shell but certainly not bendy or flimsy), and is surprisingly bright!

[@AliRasoul]

Could this be mounted on the DJI Ronin M, While shooting on the A7s ii????????!!!!!!!!!!

[@AliRasoul]

amazing video, btw, thank you!

[@TheFilmLook]

I can not see why not.

[@pushREC]

Too bad it does not have false color :/ Might just get the aputure fine hd 2

[@TheFilmLook]

+pushREC the FW759P edition actually has false color! We just decided to get the cheaper one because we don't use those features as often.

[@haytamsherifi9830]

Hi, Can we.use it with the ronin M

[@TheFilmLook]

As long as your camera uses HDMI, I see no problem using it with the Ronin M. Just as long as you have a way to mount the monitor to the handles.

[@LongshotBrit1993]

Absolutely fantastic review! Its the reason I've just purchased one myself! In regards to video latency, is there any way in your experience to improve it? As you say, it will always be there, but I was initially disappointed by how much latency there was when I first had my play (Baring in mind I havent actually used it for the project which was the reason I've bought one in the first place and of course it is my first ever monitor!) I was curious whether it was to do with my camera, whether the length or quality of the HDMI cable has any effect on the latency, or if I'm simply hoping for too much! If you have any advice you could give in your expertise it would be greatly appreciated! Regardless, its a lovely little monitor, and you guys create fantastic content! Cheers chaps!

[@TheFilmLook]

Different cameras will vary in terms of latency to a monitor - it won't be a lot but a little is enough to be noticeable. Length/Quality of HDMI cables is a myth as far as I'm aware as it is a digital signal, either on or off. Try plugging it into your computer and move your cursor around; if it works like any other monitor then you'll know it's the signal between your camera and monitor.

[@coltonvantil2547]

Does anyone know how to adjust the volume when monitoring volume through the monitor? It's currently extremely loud, not sure where to turn it down.

[@jorgemartinez178]

Hello this monitor allows to modify the anamorphic mode to 1.5x?

[@TheFilmLook]

It has anamorphic display markers but it doesn't squeeze the image back to 16:9. Are you using anamorphic lenses or throwing a letterbox over your 16:9 footage?

[@jorgemartinez178]

Ok, thanks! Yes anamorphyc lenns

[@VirtuosityToniLekic]

I am getting some weird glitches here and there with this monitor. sometimes 1 out 30 times it spills some weird horizontal lines and ruins the footage (it makes it unusable so even there is a notification: footage has error.. can not play it back), don't know why external.monitor influences footage (I use gh5), do you have experience with that? how did you solve it?

[@TheFilmLook]

Haven't had anything like that unfortunately, sorry we can't be of any help

[@dark-california]

How good is it outside ? It's only 400 NITS ? Bright enough to see what you need ?

[@TheFilmLook]

We've used it outside in the past, you can see it clearly in the shade but on a sunny day you'll have to pop the hood on. It's not insanely bright/

[@dark-california]

@@TheFilmLook I am more concerned about the image of the monitor in bright sunlight since the F759 is only 400 NITS and I noticed that the new FW279 is 2200 NITS. Now if the hood solves the problem and it works for you .. . .. it will work here as well. Thanks for your input 👌

[@TheFilmLook]

It isn't great in bright sunlight. In fact, it's unusable in direct sunlight!

[@dark-california]

@@TheFilmLook Now it's unusable outside 🤔

[@TheFilmLook]

If the sunlight is hitting the screen, you'll have a hard time seeing the shot. Out of direct sunlight, it's more than manageable.

[@hotelphotography]

My monitor doesn't show all of its space, only the middle. It shows black borders around the image. Is this a menu issue?

[@MuhammadWhiteTV1977]

Does this monitor allow playback in real time if you want to watch a video clip you just recorded ?

[@modtherockstar]

It doesn’t help the quality of the camera?

[@kozwe3064]

Allow me questioning please. Does it support lut? Thanks.

[@ondrejvirag8116]

Pls is the HDMI input classic HDMI or mini? Thanks

[@modtherockstar]

Do I need to buy a battery

[@syro-syouthrecordingorg6111]

Hi! Am I correct in assuming that although the built-in focus assist in the monitor isn't any good, I can still use the focus peaking that comes with my camera through the monitor right?

[@TheFilmLook]

You can as long as your camera allows a replacement feed to the monitor from the camera screen. I know when some are attached they act as a 2nd monitor and not a replacement. The Sony a7s has both settings but yours may vary.

[@hakdwak]

boss i bought this and how do i avoid the noisy feedbacks it will creating everytime i attached this monitor to camera?

[@Olilatu]

great video! thanks!

[@HausUndGeld-DalisWelt]

Mine one has just arrived 🤩

[@cineturon]

And after a year of using it, how do you like it?

[@ant8437]

Quality drops from 1080p to 480p know how to change that?

[@AdamOpie]

really surprised on the price! Definitely a future purchase!

[@TheFilmLook]

It's awesome. Come have a play with it in the studio before you buy it!

[@josephmarzak4153]

The latency shown on the monitor wont be there when the video is uploaded to the pc, will it?

[@SPProps]

Thanks! You saved my dog's ears!

[@TheFilmLook]

No problem!

[@antesamarzija]

I NEED HELP...I BOUGHT THIS MONITOR FOR MY CANON 70D. BUT EVERYTIME I CONNECT THE MONITOR TO MY CAM - THE SCREEN ON THE CAM ITSELF TURNS BLACK ?? WHY IS THAT?

[@jeffreykallevik1587]

How do you get the monitor to display full screen from your camera. I have a Sony a7sII and i'm getting the cropping bars on the side. The screen on the camera is also not lit up when i connect it like yours is. Any suggestions? Seems like a setting within the camera to setup.

[@TheFilmLook]

+Jeffrey Kallevik I do believe if you access the toolbox menu, there is an HDMI setting to change it from a duplicated screen to a live feed. It might be a little different on the Mark II, but it should be somewhere in your HDMI settings.

[@jeffreykallevik1587]

Thanks. I've tried to look for that setting with no luck. There's got to be something that I'm missing. Driving me insane over here.

[@crazyframes-films]

did you find any solution to it? i am having the same problem. i have a canon 70D with which monitor is showing cropped image rather than occupying full screen. please share solution if you have found. Thanks

[@MarkUpClose]

@@jeffreykallevik1587 Check your camera setting under a HDMI option. :)

[@geckocheese]

I am using a canon t3i and whenever I press record it switches to 480p viewing on the monitor. Help?

[@AlwaGordon]

does this work for shooting 4K?

[@TheFilmLook]

We have not been able to test the monitor with a 4k camera as we do not own one, but i can not see a reason why you would not be able to connect it to one and display your screen.

[@TekOverclocked]

thanks to you i bought it :)

[@TheFilmLook]

Awesome! Hope you like it as much as we do!

[@PeppePascale_]

thanks for thi rewiev. you convinced me to buy it

[@TheFilmLook]

+Peppe Pascale No problem! Hope you like it as much as we do.

[@nauvalsetyawan9028]

Hey, please help me, can i use that monitor on my sony a6000 ?

[@TheFilmLook]

The a6000 has an HDMI output, so yes, it will work :)

[@nauvalsetyawan9028]

Ok thank you, so i will buy it, because i found it in gumtree very cheap, only 50 dollar austalia, and it is in good condition😊😊

[@TheFilmLook]

Oh nice! Defs worth $50 AUS.

[@mauroraigoza1652]

Hi ... thanks for the video, I am writing from Colombia. I have a question: Does the monitor have any indicators with the battery charge level? Thank you !

[@TheFilmLook]

As far I recall, it doesn't feature a battery gauge or anything of the sort, unfortunately.

[@xxkingofpop95xx]

Where'd you get the shoulder mount and what's it called? Thanks!

[@TheFilmLook]

All of the shoulder mount equipment is from a company called SmallRig which can be found on Amazon. They have lots of different pieces so you can customise your rig how you like it. The quality is really good to for the price.

[@t.d.j.dejong6285]

Is it only for video mode or also live view when photographing?

[@MarkUpClose]

Both :)

[@mattolivarez8156]

4k compatible? Great vid

[@DamianBrown]

Yes

[@reedeema]

Hi . Does ist have a Recording Feature ?

[@DamianBrown]

No

[@abelmeers1698]

May be a stupid question but... could it be possible to use your ipad as a monitor?

[@TheFilmLook]

With some camera I think you can you an iPad as a monitor, but I think there is a delay.

[@mattiashoxha2098]

Is it compatible with panasonic gh4 battery?

[@TheFilmLook]

I don't believe so. This monitor uses Sony NPF batteries.

[@visualbyandrejnguyen1696]

Does NP-F550 fits NP-FN-M500H? :)

[@TheFilmLook]

I have just tried them and yes they do work.

[@iwasakisony1]

Is it good for 4k video recording?

[@MarkUpClose]

Yes, we shoot on a nikon 4k UHD no issues! :)

[@aaronromero7723]

Yes is made of cheap plastic and the screen is very very fragile also the company will not honor the warranty
