SmallHD Focus Overview

Designed as a unified monitoring and power solution for Sony cameras that use NP-FW50 batteries, this FOCUS Sony Bundle from SmallHD can slim down your rig, while providing increased usability. A power output on the SmallHD FOCUS monitor enables you to power your camera through the monitor via the included NP-FW50 dummy battery.

The L-series battery with charger included in this kit is used for directly powering the monitor and for powering your camera via the monitor using the battery dummy. Check out the features for all the items included in this kit below.

SmallHD FOCUS 5" On-Camera Monitor

Designed to add professional monitoring tools to DSLR and mirrorless cameras, the SmallHD FOCUS 5" On-Camera Monitor is bright, lightweight, and features a sharp display. The 800 cd/m² bright touchscreen 1280 x 720 IPS LCD panel can be viewed in daylight, and is driven by a single micro-HDMI input. Using the intuitive Swipe OS, you can turn on various monitoring tools like waveform, false color, and vectorscope, as well as focusing aids like peaking, with a tap. If your camera outputs UHD 4K over HDMI, the FOCUS will support that input resolution as well as HD and SD inputs. At the rear of the monitor, a single NP-F battery bay accepts a separately available L-series battery for power, while an integrated power output can also power your camera with a separately available DC coupler. A stand with tilt adjustment is included with the monitor for mounting atop your camera's accessory shoe or on a 1/4"-20 screw.

Swipe OS
Built on SmallHD's intuitive PageBuilder OS, Swipe OS offers the same intuitiveness of a graphical user interface (GUI), though with touchscreen navigation. Rather than have confusing menus, this GUI allows you to selectively apply monitoring tools such as waveform, vectorscope, and focusing aids to up to 12 different "pages". Using the touchscreen, swipe through different preset pages and toggle monitoring tools on or off with ease.
Camera Setup Integration
This monitor complements smaller cameras by providing power output and a headphone jack. The power output lets you power your camera directly from the NP-F battery (sold separately) mounted on the monitor, increasing runtimes over the standard batteries of many mirrorless cameras. If your camera doesn't have a headphone jack, the FOCUS de-embeds the audio from the HDMI stream for real-time feedback of audio.
Convenient Mounting
The FOCUS monitor secures to your camera using the included FOCUS Tilt Arm via shoe mount or 1/4"-20 thread. The Tilt Arm enables 180° of tilt for convenient monitoring at nearly any angle. A cold shoe on the Tilt Arm lets you secure equipment (like a microphone, LED light, or wireless receiver) that would otherwise be displaced from the camera's accessory shoe.
SmallHD FOCUS to Sony NP-FW50 Power Adapter

SmallHD's FOCUS monitors have a power output for smaller cameras, and with this FOCUS to Sony NP-FW50 Power Adapter, you can power your Sony A7-series mirrorless camera right off the monitor. Insert the dummy battery end into your camera and connect it up to the FOCUS monitor's output for power. Powering the camera using the montior's battery will result in a simplified power setup and longer shooting times between charges, compared to the standard internal batteries.

Note: Check your camera's manual to ensure compatibility with the dummy battery type.

SmallHD L-Series Battery & Charger Kit

The SmallHD L-Series Battery & Charger Kit features an NP-F774 7.2V L-series battery and a portable 7.2V charger with a fold-out 2-prong US plug.

question

I plan on mounting this monitor to my DJI Ronin-M and a7sii. How long is the included micro HDMI cable? And is there a longer micro HDMI cable that fits into the monitor that I can purchase if needed?
Asked by: Steven
SmallHD sell longer hdmi cables, about 2 feet long I believe, its the right length for use with the ronin and other similar sized setups and you wont need to use any adaptors or extra connections.Another option would be to use the included micro hdmi to full hdmi adapter, and pick up either a coiled hdmi cable or an ultra thin hdmi cable. I recommend the ultra thin cable over coiled since its lighter and more flexible, which will make balancing the gimbal easier since there wont be any resistance during motion.

How bad/good is the latency. So many monitors have a noticeable lag. Does this one have low latency?
Asked by: Kevin A.
I can confirm this monitor does not have any latency issues. Its pretty spot on and works like a dream.

Does this work on a Sony A7rii?

Does this work on a Sony FDR-AX700?
Asked by: Enrique
You can connect the AX700 to this monitor for video, however the included dummy battery will not be able to power the camera. Also you will need a Full HDMI to Micro HDMI cable from SmallHD specifically for this monitor, which is BH #SMMICROFUL24, as well. https://bhpho.to/2Zw8kvU

question

Can you see battery level of the L-series battery?
Asked by: David
You can see the battery voltage on the monitor when you pull down from the top of the screen, but it doesn't give you a percentage remaining. When using the power adapter on my Sony a6300 the camera displays a percentage remaining that seems relatively accurate.
