Title: Lilliput 663 external monitor
Post by: Kakashi on June 02, 2021, 12:15:47 AM
Hello guys, I'm getting ready to pull the plug on an external monitor. Trying to pull focus on the real built-in monitor on my 5D3 is next to impossible even with focus peaking so I've been looking at various options.

The Lilliput 663 seems to have good specs and the price seems right:

Any of you have any experience with this external monitor, and will it work with ML?

Many thanks!

For checking ML compatibility you can connect your 5D3 to a monitor/TV set with HDMI input. Your cam should do 1080i59.94 via HDMI and that won't be affected by recording resolution/frame rates.
Firmware 1.2.3 allows dual monitor, 1.1.3 will turn your cam's LCD off if HDMI connection is established.
