Q. Can you recommend a cheap but good 7″ monitor?

A. Here’s a cheap 7” monitor one of my subscribers bought on my recommendation and loves: http://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/Support-Waveform-Vector-Scope-7-inch-IPS-broadcast-Display-Anton-mount-plate-Free-shiping/701605_1806865854.html

I was planning to buy it too, but I already have the Shogun so it is unnecessary. Here’s what the satisfied user had to say:

I actually bought the 7″ Neway monitor that you so kindly sent me the Ali Express link for. You’re absolutely correct in that it is definitely sharper than the F&V F3 and has all the features that I need. I’ve now mounted the F&V permanently on my SteadyCam.
