Comments about Ikan V5600 Deluxe 5.6" Monitor Kit w/Sony Battery:
The review above mine said something about the color not being good, thats the least of my problems and in that aspect, I feel its fine.. And it does let you boost saturation, contrast, brightness, and easily. HOWEVER, I would not recommend this to anyone. I feel this lcd is not a good for focusing at all. The image isnt too sharp and its not full screen either.. Keep in mind I am using for a Canon t2i, hdmi out. The only thing I look for in a lcd is to make it as accurate as the camera screen, be able to move it in any direction and the most critical is being able to focus.. This happens to not be the case for me and I am even thinking of returning it and buying a different lcd.
I bought this for event filming like weddings, as well as on a rig for music videos and other stuff.... but mostly weddings. It is able to see if you are in focus if you press the focus assist on the camera, but other than that, the quality of the screen seems very not so clear and sharp to tell if its focus..... On my Sony z7u lcd, its easier to tell focus than this screen.. That is all, buy wisely.. I would not recommend this lcd..

I bought the Ikan V5600 monitor to use with my Canon 7D. I use the 7D as a b-camera to my 5D. I needed something small and light and didn't feel like waiting for the Marshall 5" to hit the streets.
The V5600 is certainly sharp, great for verifying focus, but there is no way to adjust color - and in my experience the color is so off from what I'm actually shooting it's hard to look at the monitor.
I do not recommend this monitor.
