Elvid MIVIDCON-3GS-HD Reviews

Reliable and Stays Cool During Long Use

By Leo

I tested this converter in the office before taking it into the field, and it performed great. The SDI-to-HDMI conversion was reliable and worked without any issues. I’ve used bidirectional converters that became very hot during extended use, but this Elvid model stayed cool and continued working perfectly after several hours. Its compact size also makes it easy to carry with my other gear. So far, I’m very happy with its performance. [I have received this product in exchange for my honest review.]

Works great.  Very handy, compact size and well-made

The Elvid 3G-SDI to HDMI Micro Video Converter is one of those pieces of gear you don’t realize you need until you do. It’s such a convenient tool for anyone working with SDI equipment but needing to connect to HDMI gear like monitors or computers. I’ve used it to convert SDI signals from a camera to my HDMI monitor, and it’s super easy...just plug in, and you're good to go. It has worked flawlessly for me. What I appreciate most is how versatile it is. It supports up to 1080p60, so I’m getting crisp, broadcast-quality video every time. Plus, the SDI loop output is a fantastic bonus, letting me retain the option to still send out the signal SDI and not only HDMI. Whether you’re working with a 2nd monitor that is SDI or another SDI device, it keeps everything running smoothly. The power options are also a nice plus. If I’m somewhere with an AC outlet, it comes with an adapter. Or I can run it off my computer’s USB port, or any other device with a 5V USB output It’s nice to have that flexibility, especially on location. And speaking of locations, the compact and durable metal design makes it super portable. I can toss it in my gear bag without worrying about it getting banged up. And I love that it has a little blue light to let you know it is receiving power and is on. That is good information to have, especially when on location. For anyone dealing with both SDI and HDMI setups and gear, this little converter is a must-have. It’s reliable, compact, and makes switching between SDI and HDMI workflows a breeze. It’s been a handy addition to my kit for my productions. [I have received this product in exchange for my honest review]

does these units convert, (or downscale 4K cameras to 1080-60p?) or do we have to send only a 1080 signal to the device?
Asked by: Victor
The Elvid 3G-SDI to HDMI Micro Video Converter does not scale; you would have to set your output to a compatible resolution and frame rate.
