Selecting External Camera Screens (On Camera Monitors)
Photographers no longer have to rely upon tiny LCD screens to preview photos, and videographers can catch issues immediately and re-shoot scenes, thanks to camera monitors. On-camera monitors can be attached directly to the camera or video equipment, or you can use mounting brackets for additional security. Small monitors with HDMI input are ideal for DSLR cameras, while larger production monitors work well with video and camcorders.
What Are External Camera Screens and How Are They Used?
On-Camera monitors are screens used with cameras or camcorders for a better view of focus areas and the final object. To secure them, you can use monitor mounts that stabilize the additional hardware. HD monitors with HDMI connections are ideal for newer DSLR cameras and GoPro equipment as they require only one connection for both audio and video. Because most on-camera monitors have their own battery, they work separately from other systems and don‘t drain the power of the device. With multiple settings, including brightness and contrast, the monitor will show brighter results than the on-board LCD. The brighter results help display colors as they’ll be in the final product. If color or lighting is off, you can adjust softboxes, LED lighting, and other production equipment to produce a better photo or video.
How to Choose a Camera Monitor
There are several things to consider when choosing camera monitors for DSLR cameras. Have the camera or camcorder model information available when searching for an on-camera monitor. Pay special attention to input and output sources, to ensure that you purchase the correct charging and connection cords. Input and output sources are especially important to video playback and sound quality. Before making a purchase, research the following areas, to ensure the best quality addition to your preexisting equipment.
- Size: Larger monitors make it easier to see defects in the shot
- Resolution: High-resolution creates sharper image detail
- DPI: Dots-per-inch, measurement of how many dots it takes to produce an image
- Connections: Check if the monitor has HDMI, AV, USB, or a combination
- Additional features: Any composition aids that may be available
Special features for on-camera monitors may also include overlays, for video and photo editing. HD monitors with HDMI hookups offer benefits as well; the major benefit is being able to send audio and video with one cable. To do this, monitors with HDMI input must also have speakers; this is an excellent feature for shooting music videos. Adding professional video monitor hoods will help ensure you see the image playback without reflection from surrounding light sources.
