INTRODUCTION

Thank you for choosing Elvid.

The Elvid WCM-758G SkyVision is a wireless monitor designed
to receive signal from your 5.8 GHz composite video transmitter.
Equipped with composite video loop-through, the SkyVision can
also be used for wired monitoring via its HDMI and composite
video inputs. The 7″ LCD panel’s native resolution is 1024 ×
600, and you can set the aspect ratio to 16:9 (native) or 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 transmission display formats.

The SkyVision 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.
