SmallHD Focus OLED Overview

The SmallHD 5.5" FOCUS OLED HDMI Monitor combines the accuracy of an OLED display with the ability to power select DSLR and mirrorless cameras. Viewable even in full daylight, this onboard monitor's 350 cd/m² bright 1920 x 1080 OLED panel is crisp enough for pulling focus, and features a single micro-HDMI input. Load custom LUTs and access focus and monitoring tools like waveform, false color, and vectorscope using the touchscreen interface.

Powered by a single Sony L-series type battery (not included), this versatile monitor can also supply power to select cameras when used with a separately available adapter cable. Display features include 2x and 4x pixel zoom, multiple anamorphic de-squeeze functions, false color options, image overlay, and up to 8-channel audio metering.

A Tilt Arm is included with the monitor for mounting to your camera's accessory shoe or 1/4"-20 threaded hole. The FOCUS OLED's rubberized plastic form includes three 1/4"-20 threaded mounting points. Additional features include SD card storage, a 3.5mm stereo headphone jack, and a low 5.76W power draw.

"SD card storage" is listed. Does it actually record video to this storage or are they simply slots to hold cards that are not in use?

I believe the slot is there so you can load custom LUTS onto an SD card

Does the monitor come with HDMI cable for use with Nikon D5 or D500?
Asked by: Uday
The D5 and D500 both have a Mini HDMI connection. This monitor comes with a Micro HDMI to HDMI adapter. You will need to use an HDMI to Mini HDMI cable to connect the D5 and D500 to this monitor. https://bhpho.to/2XQakxf

Is this monitor compatible with UHD at 25p ? Becouse in technical paper it says Supports UHD-1 4K at 30/29.97 @ RGB 444 8bit, YCC 444 8bit, YCC 422 12 bit & 24/23.98 @ RGB 444 10/8 bit, YCC 444 10/8bit, YCC 422 12 bit, YCC 4:2:2, 8/10/12 bit color in RGB & YCC 4:4:4 , but not 25p (the european frequency)
Asked by: George
According to SmallHD it does not. For UHD the only frame rates listed are 30, 29.97, 24 and 23.98. However it does accept PAL frame rates in HD frame rates and in general cameras that shoot UHD are able to output HD only even while shooting UHD. You will still be able to us this monitor with PAL cameras.
