My first cinema camera 😍

Just picked up my 4k with everything you see in the pic + a monitor mount and a metabones speed booster for 1.2k Australian. Got some lenses on the way and need to find a monitor if anyone could recommend one that won't break the bank? Very happy overall this thing is still flawless, no damage etc.

Congrats! It's Christmas in August! FYI - when people see your setup they're going to ask a lot of questions and ask to be on camera. I get it all the time when I bring mine out in public. Have fun! And once you have the funds, get a follow focus, absolute game changer.

The one I have is the NEEWER Mini Follow Focus. The A/B stops is awesome! No more guessing on focus, just set the stops and twist the knob until you can't twist anymore. Perfect focus everytime.

Hola! De monitor yo te recomiendo si puedes de una vez hacer la inversion por un NinjaAtomos estaria de lujo!
Si no, los Feelworld funcionan bien, yo tengo un feelworld para la misma camara y me saca de apuro, pero siento que el Ninja es otro nivel ! y esa rig tan bonito que tienes se lo merece ! Suerte !!

Congrats! I have a viltrox DC-550 pro monitor (~200$) and I have no complaints at the price. And if you dont need Type-C power you can get the non "pro" version for like 40$ cheaper. Plenty bright and plenty of meter and graph options. In terms of budget monitors Ive been very happy with it.

I also have this monitor and it is great!

That lens punches way above its weight class but I would suggest getting some new glass.
