That Alphatron is really the only option in my opinion. I like the fact that it's both SDI/HDMI.

I really liked the Zacuto, though. It's probably the most lightweight.

let us know what you think of that unit. I saw it at NAB. looked very sharp. I was wanting to know how it balances out on the C300.

thanks

I heard about One Alphatron user facing an issue with his EVF. He while mounting it on his rig thru the Magic Arm accidentally hit (slightly) the base of his EVF with the Matte Box & lost the EVF display. Had to get it replaced for a new one ... Wondering if this EVF is so delicate. Many iPhone user have dropped their phones accidentally but not loosing their displays. How come Alphatron using iPhone Retina displays are so delicate in nature of handeling.

I opened up the wonder that I had been eagerly waiting for. Must say :

1. Build quality nice and sturdy but goota be cautious while handeling
2. Power Tap cable provided so no worries to invest in for Sony NP battery
3. Now the best part : Resolution is tack on spot quite easy to pull jn camera focus
4. Various mounting points helps for mounting
5. One has move the eye ball to actually look from corner to corner as the enlarged screen is bit to large for human eye to glance in one go

Many may agree to disagree...until then happy shooting :)
