As I continue my journey into filmmaking and all that surrounds it, I’ve become even more aware of the need for convenience when shooting. As someone who’s tall and owns a camera without an articulating screen, creating videos is quite the hassle so I’ve been looking into budget-friendly video monitors and the Feelworld F6 Plus stood out amongst the bunch.
The Feelworld F6 Plus is a compact on-camera monitor designed for videographers and filmmakers. It features a 5.5-inch IPS LCD panel with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, providing sharp and detailed images. The monitor supports various video inputs, including HDMI and 3G-SDI, making it compatible with a wide range of cameras and equipment.
One of the notable features of the F6 Plus is its touchscreen functionality, allowing you to access and control the monitor’s settings with ease. It provides a user-friendly interface for adjusting parameters such as brightness, contrast, and saturation, as well as enabling features like focus peaking, histogram, and waveform monitoring. The touch capabilities can be particularly useful for quick adjustments and menu navigation.
The monitor also offers a variety of assist tools, such as focus peaking, zebra exposure, and false color, which help in achieving accurate focus and exposure. Additionally, it supports 3D LUTs (Look-Up Tables) for more precise color calibration and monitoring.
In terms of build quality, the Feelworld F6 Plus is constructed with a durable plastic. It features a 1/4″-20 mounting thread on the bottom and sides, allowing you to attach it securely to your camera or other accessories. The monitor is powered by either Sony NP-F batteries, Canon LP E6 batteries or via the included DC adapter, giving you flexibility in choosing your power source. It also has a built-in headphone jack for monitoring audio, which can be helpful during video shoots.
Overall, the Feelworld F6 Plus offers a solid set of features for its price range and is a valuable tool for videographers and filmmakers looking for an external monitor.
