Great Screen, Mount Not Useable

The screen is a superb unit, but as many others have reported the included cold shoe mount is stuck and can't be adjusted without a vise and a hammer.

Is this monitor compatible with the Nikon Z8? I see that older Viltrox models have issues with it, especially with 1080p.
Asked by: Luka
I have bought it... Well, on Z8 it doesn't work properly on 1080p feed. It has issues with some resolutions, but if camera is set to feed 2160p - everything works correctly but the handshake time prolongs from about 2 seconds to about 4 seconds.

Is this monitor compatible with Fujifilm Xt5 camera ?
Asked by: Paula
Yes, you can use the Viltrox DC-X2 6" Touchscreen HD Monitor with a Fujifilm X-T5. This camera uses a Micro-HDMI output, so you'll need a Micro-HDMI to HDMI cable like the ZILR Hyper-Thin High-Speed Micro-HDMI to HDMI Cable with Ethernet (17.7"), B&H # ZI4KP60M17.
