Thank you for choosing Elvid.

The Elvid OCM-7B-D FieldVision is an on-camera monitor with
HDMI and composite audio and video inputs, as well as composite
video loop-through. The 7″ LED panel’s native resolution is
1024 × 600, with an aspect ratio of 16:9 (native) that you can

set to 4:3. The onscreen menu makes it easy to ne-tune your

image, offering adjustments for brightness, contrast, hue, and

saturation. There are also broadcast-specic features like safety

frame markers and multiple display formats.

The FieldVision is equipped with advanced tools like Check Field

to help calibrate the monitor, a Focus setting to ne-tune your

focus, and Camera mode to scale the incoming video signal when
shooting on a DSLR. Onboard buttons provide quick shortcuts
to Camera, Focus, and Check Field modes, the safety frame and
center markers, and the onscreen volume bar. There’s also an
integrated speaker and a 3.5 mm stereo headphone output for
live audio monitoring.
